This morning I started my day with a 6 mile jog. It was 77 degrees out with 84% humidity and that was at 4am! I averaged 13 minute miles which is slightly slower than last time. The weather was cooler last time and I forgot to bring my camelback for rehydration and I was needing some water. Not excuses, just stating the facts.
Work flew by today and once I got home I crashed! 5.5 hours of sleep a night is not enough and it caught up to me. I caught a hour of sleep and I did not want to get up when I heard the alarm. I actually considered setting the alarm for the morning and seeing if I would sleep through to the AM. I could not do it though as I have a pet to feed and a workout to get to.
I was pretty sluggish when I first got to the gym. I quickly snapped out of it and had a great workout.

I was again sweating and panting by the time I was done. Since I ran this morning I did not want to do the regular squats with weight. I was saving myself from extra soreness. I feel like this totally kicked my butt! I also skipped bench pressing since I was so weak at it last time after pull-ups and dips. I will move Bench pressing and over head presses to another day when I can be fresh.
With Dinner tonight I took the easy way out. I went to Boston Market and bought chicken, red potatoes, mashed potatoes, green beans and creamed spinach. Obviously not all my choices were great ones but I did not have it in me to cook tonight. I will be trashing the creamed spinach. It used to be my favorite but I don’t like it anymore. I do have too much carbs in the meal but I was light on carbs for the day so it was ok for this time. Next time I am in this situation I will need to remember to go to Subway instead and have a sandwich.
Calorie-wise I was doing great up to dinner. I ended up eating 1,460 calories in dinner alone. Way too much! I totalled 2,559 calories for the day. 300 hundred to many. Real life Baby, this is real life. I expect tomorrow I will have a better handle on the food consumption. Seems when I go off the plan one day I do bounce back the next.
