SO I goofed up my diet last night. We decided to go out for dinner and my will crumbled. I had a big fat juicy cheeseburger!! It was so delicious lol So I decided to work a little harder at the gym today. Did 4 and a half miles of cardio and worked my abs and lower body hard. Spent over 2 hours at the gym!! It felt awesome and I was really happy to be there this morning, but I know I'm gonna be hurting tomorrow! Its a good thing though, cause sometimes I work out all morning and I never get sore. At least this way I know I worked hard and the muscles are repairing and building. I felt so sluggish this morning I decided to get some kind of energy drink. I have minor heart issues so I was careful in deciding. I know that I cant take redbull plus I think it tastes nasty. So I bought some liquid Redline, its a drink designed to give you energy before a workout and WOOOOO! It was AMAZING! I was so happy and focused it really helped me! Each bottle contains two servings so Ill have some left for tomorrow morning :) I brought my stuff to sit in the hottub today but I just didn't feel like it, so maybe some other time this week.
I crushed the meniscus in my knee in high school so Ive always been reluctant to get on the treadmill as apposed to the elliptical, until a few months ago. I got on it and did about a mile. It really feels better than the elliptical cause I feel like I'm doing more for my body. However, I pushed myself to go hard and fast today and my knee isn't feeling so hot :( So I may have to stick to the elliptical for a while until I feel my knee is ready for the treadmill again. I'm getting really excited for the warmer weather!! I wanna run outside and go for bike rides!! I think it would be awesome to take my daughter out on a bike and ride all over the awesome trails that are so close to my house.
So today I'm really gonna try and focus on staying under or at the 1500 calorie mark. I'm gonna weigh myself again on Friday to see if Ive made some progress. I certainly hope so after how hard I have been and will be pushing myself this week! But I'm not gonna let the numbers get to me. I know that muscle weighs more than fat so Ill be gaining and losing constantly. I just cant wait to actually see the results in my features!! I'm debating taking a before and after pic cause its hard to see myself the way I am now. But I think I will do it just because I know the difference will be amazing :)
