A fun night

I had a great night last night but felt like a complete wuss at the gym.

I got a mile run in at 5.0 mph before taking me back down to a 4.3 mph walk. I just couldnt do it. With doing the mostly veggie/fruit diet, I just didnt have the stamina.

But I got 2.25 miles in before zumba.

Zumba was great as usual and I am starting to really look forward to my certification next weekend.

In total, I burned 1010 calories at the gym.

Then we went to Aubrees for dinner. I did really good and had a greek salad with the feta and dressing on the side. It came with two breadsticks that I ate, and I had 3 feta bread sticks. I also had 2 Octoberfest beers. I know, I know. I said I would have wine but beer just sounded SO good.

Fast forward to today and there was no weight gain. Still at 176.0.

Ok so today I am having a smoothie. Lunch will be fruits and veggies with my apple/peanut butter combo.

Tonight I am going to my aunts house and will be bringing a salad for dinner. I think the plan is for them to pick up some chinese too. I am REALLY picky with my chinese so I dont know that that will be too much of a challenge for me to avoid. Bread is THE killer for me.

We shall see how it goes. Really I am happy with how well I have done so far even though I went off a bit yesterday. I plan on continuing next week but will stop the diet Friday to bulk up on carbs that day- much the way a runner bulks up on carbs before a race. I want to make sure I have enough energy for Zumba ALL DAY on Saturday.

Have a great day everyone!

  1. Carbs are my downfall, as well. I can eat bagels everyday, along with pizza and chocolate!
