So far, so good.

I finally made it back to the gym this morning. Despite not wanting to leave the house and crawl back into bed after having woken up @ 3:30am, I went. Stupid me, I lost my gym ID the day I left for NYC, and seriously could not find the damned thing anywhere. I had to pay $6 to get a new one this morning; and I KNOW I'll find the original as soon as I pick up the new one. It's like the unwritten rule of losing things.

Anyhow, had a great workout this morning. It felt wonderful to take a few minutes pre-treadmill and stretch. My legs are still mega-sore from my crazy yardwork fit Saturday. Alas, the yard looks great now! So, I managed to give 50 good minutes on the treadmill this morning. I ran about 6 intervals...2 of them being inclines (one backwards) and the rest running. I made the mistake and wore a pair of pants that are not running appropriate; I almost showed every geriatric in Chicago my pale Irish cheeks! =)

In 50 mins I completed 2.6 miles and burned 464 cals. I always mentally deduct 100 calories from the equipment total, because there is simply no way I could burn that many in 50 mins. Wishful thinking.

Food today has been pretty good. However, I just finished calculating my cals for the day, and I'm at 1,328 for the day, and still need to eat dinner. Hmmm...what do you do in this instance? I guess I'll up it to 1,800. I'm sure as hell not going to starve myself; that'll just lead to trouble. Can we say 2am cookie binge?

Well, so far so good. Let's just try to make it through the evening (always my downfall) unscathed, and Tuesday should be Hells better!
