DB's log 01.13.2010

Breakfast:
-Steel cut Irish oats with blueberries and chia seeds, topped with a little milk
-1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese

Lunch:
-leftover crab salad
-Fage Greek yogurt with cherry

Snacks:
-2 1/2 Wasa multigrain crackers
-8 raw almonds
-2 Indian chakri snacks

Dinner:
-Coolio's "Mermaid Steaks:" tuna steaks marinated in soy sauce, olive oil, lime, onion, and garlic; grilled, then topped with pomegranate seeds. (Surprisingly quite good!)

Beverages:
-Earl Grey tea with whole milk and 2 sugar-in-the-raws
-3 glasses of water

Exercise:  I'm proud to say I'm the McCormick Tribune YMCA's newest member as of this morning!  R and I hit up the treadmills together...unfortunately I had to cut my run just short of 20 minutes because the sign-up took longer than I thought and I was running late to work.  But I ran up any and all stairs encountered and I wore these stupid high-heel boots today that were a workout in and of themselves.

Notes:  I *think* I've lost about a pound, if my new scale is correct.  I'll feel more confident about this after tomorrow morning's weigh-in.  Wasn't feeling too sore today until just a few hours ago; I'm sure tomorrow will be killer.  But in a masochistic twist of fate, I actually really enjoy the feeling of being sore now.  It reminds me that I got a good workout and it proves to me that what I'm doing is actually changing my body (even if I can only perceive that change as ouchiness.)
