***Workouts: 1; Diet: bad***
For the past couple of weeks I've been average a cardio class a week. Finally broke that record by hitting the gym Saturday morning. The instructor had subbed the Tuesday class and I liked her music (despite the routine being relatively simple.) That's another 500 calories burned off.
Unfortunately, though, the victory may have been short-lived. I dined a lot that afternoon: appetizer, entree, and dessert for lunch; foot-long sub for a late-afternoon snack; and a huge special for dinner after the play (see Words). And a snack at 2 AM. I'll be surprised this week if my weight stays the same.
I originally had planned to work out Sunday morning. But Morpheus took over and I finally crawled out of bed around 11 AM. I controlled my eating throughout the day consuming mostly leftovers.
Reminders:
- Drink lots of fluids after a workout. The sensation of hunger is very similar to the sensation of dehydration.
- Future appetizers will be soup.
- Desserts, if any, are to go.
- Order veggies subs next time. And only a half-foot. And watch the condiments, especially extras like sauces.
- Dinners shall be the smallest--not the largest--meal of the day.
I'm still debating if I want to go for mass or tone as my goal over the next few months. Maybe I'll come to a decision after Fame2004 this month.
