Exercise: 50 minutes at the YMCA, 20 minutes busting a move on the treadmill and the rest PUMPING IRON. Took the train to work today so I got in an extra fast-paced 15 minute walk and another 10 to work. Right on.
Notes: I feel sorta sluggish and snacky today. Part of it is my bod's tired, I have been sore from working out almost every day this week- not all over but each day I feel it somewhere. Today in my thighs, which makes stairs heavy! I am likely having less quality sleep as well, a week before my special lady-times I have vivid dreams and toss and turn more than usual. So yeah, let's blame it all (including that chocolate...) on my period! Done!! Update: Later I was feeling better, ate dinner at a a BAR with friends, I did good by ordering the soup & salad, which I would have NEVER done in the past! Not at a bar. Sheesh. Comraderie continued and drinks happened, but since I have been off the booze all week it was nice to kick back with a few! No regrets, as I say, maybe all too often....
