Week 20 Day 7

R.I.P. Peter Faulk    “Ah, just one more thing…”

Sunday and no trip to the gym.  today was about getting out and being in nature.  We decided on Sugurloaf mountain in Maryland as our destination.  It has been over a year since we have been there so it was time.

The hike to the top was great.  We were both breathing hard from the hills and were feeling it in our leg muscles.  We packed some coldcut sandwiches for lunch to eat at the top while we enjoyed the views.   Our total hike time was just under 2 hours but 15 minutes of that was eating lunch and admiring the views from the top.   We were both tired once we got back to the truck and my wife slept some of the way home,  lucky her.

The day was mostly relaxing and catching up on TV shows after the hike until dinner time.  We then divided and conquered the tasks.  I cooked the main meal and my honey cut up a canteloupe and watermelon for dessert.  Dinner was filet mignon with red peppers, mushrooms, broccoli and asparagus over some lettuce.

It was yummy and there was enough for me for lunch tomorrow so that is a bonus.

For the day I consumed 2,311 calories.  Not too far over my targeted goal.  I did not go to the gym today at all or do a garage workout so there was room for improvement but I felt like the hike was long enough to cover me for the day.  Tomorrow is a jogging morning so there will be more sweating in my near future!

I forgot to post this yesterday, my latest weigh-in.  I like it! every day brings me closer to my goal.
