Valentine's Day, Schmalentine's Day.
I got in a good workout, and that's all that matters. Going back to strength training was pretty tough, but I didn't have to weight down for anything. I'm very sore this morning, but I'm going to take that as a job well done.
For some reason, weight lifting poops me out more than a cardio exercise. Regardless, I promised myself that I'd get some more cardio in on this day of love, and I did not let myself down. I cycled for 45 minutes, which impressed me more than anything. A few weeks ago, I tried doing weight lifting and then cycling; I barely lasted 15 minutes. To get through 30 more minutes this time around (and with little fatiguing, I must say!) is a huge improvement. It's nice to see that despite my week hiatus, I still continue to improve.
My diet was pretty good today. I started off with a home made latte for breakfast; a salad for lunch; and I split a Chinese dish with my mom (nothing fried, white rice on the side, all that jazz.) I did allow myself to have a scoop of low fat ice cream, but hey, I had to love myself back after doing all of that! And it was half the fat of regular ice cream, so HA!
Alcohol hasn't been a huge problem yet. It's only been 2 days, but at least I've a strong start on it.
Now to move on to the hardest time to work out; the weekend. Here's to some more lovin'!
