Alright, yesterday saw me doing my strength workout and then going out with a friend to walk/jog. That didn't go as well as usual. I generaly do that routine in the early morning hours, and doing it in the heat and humidity (20 degree difference!) of the afternoon about knocked me over.
I only did three of my 8 bouts of running, and cramped so badly that we had to stop and sit while I made sad pathetic noises. Still, it was a workout, and I stretched very, very well. This morning I feel right as rain.
Today is my usual day to go out and practice being a runner. Fake it until you make it, right? Fake it by jogging all gentle like, whatever it takes! I think I am gonna do the elliptical instead though. No heat, no humidity, no shin splints. Recover from my ordeal, yes? Sure!
I overate a wee bit yesterday. Had a couple of crabcakes that I made for my room mate. It tipped me a little high on the net carb scale, but nothing outrageous. It also showed me how truly dumb it is to hover over temptation during the first three days. Today that problem is solved. I have a low carb dinner becoming delicious in the slow cooker, a low carb lunch set out just waiting already, and a low carb and delightfully filling breakfast in my belly.
All I need now is the motivation to get on the elliptical. Go girl go!
Addition: So I did hop on the elliptical and put in a good 30 minutes. Whew. Of course, I was feeling all kinds of desperate for sweets, so I decided to indulge in a couple of crab cakes. How bad can crab cakes be?
20 carbs?!? Are you kidding me?!? And that is what I get for looking up the facts after the damage is already done
Worse, I had three of them last night and I had to go back and account for them and hang my head in shame. I didn't hang my head too terribly long though, as these are the things that happen. I indulged last night, that led to cravings and sluggishness today. Tomorrow, I will keep that in mind, as I work through the cravings without caving in.
