belated new year's

bekah has inspired me to get back on the saddle of health. it's amazing how quickly a few "i deserve this" truffles can turn into a pair of "i don't deserve this!!!" pants. yeah, okay, mom died and i relied heavily on comfort food - but i can't say that's a fair excuse. i owe it to her and to everyone who knows me to make choices that will keep me around as long as possible.

yesterday i exercised for the first time in two months. i masochistically decided to do a 45-minute jillian michael's workout, which left me near tears/almost vomiting on the living room floor. the burn of unused muscles is so worth it! i am terrified of running outside in this cold weather, so we'll see if if i can't get creative with today's workout.

and to keep me honest - i'll try to keep a food log. yipes.

meal 1 - 325

3/4 cup 5 grain cereal - 240
eggwhite omelette - 34
1/2 tbs butter - 51

meal 2 - 169

5 pita chips - 80
4 tbs. salsa - 20
1 orange - 69

meal 3 - 260

1 slice cinnamon raisin swirl bread - 160
1.5 tbs. chunky peanut butter - 100

meal 4 - 520

2 oz. pasta - 210
0.5 tbs olive oil - 60
caprese salad - 250

meal 5 - 560

strawberry shortcake - 500
pudding cup - 60

total = 1834
25 min cardio
30 min circuit

  1. oh boy! this might also help me to stay motivated haha. A food log is a good idea...i've always been skeptical of counting calories though.
