This morning I decided to go for an uphill walk before work. I wanted to go for a run but figured it was too hot. I ended up walking while talking on the phone for about 15-20 minutes. A good friend of mine moved to New Orleans a year ago and she is about to give birth to her second child. I hadn't spoken to her in several weeks so it was really nice to catch up. As soon as I got off the phone I started my uphill walk (I had waited since I didn't want to be out od breath while talking). On the way back down on the backside of the hill I decided to run and kept running until I got back home. I walked around the block once to cool down and then went inside to stretch.
I had wanted to get to work around 10:30 or 11:00am but didn't actually get there until 12:00pm. It actually worked out though. I finished work at 4pm but realized the accounting program was having some issues. It turned out the program was corrupted and it took me another two and a half hours to fix. I left at 6:30pm and still had to stop at the grocery store. I was very happy I had already completed my daily workout since I didn't have time to go to the gym after work.
For dinner I grilled some Top Sirloin Filets from Trader Joe's and had a side spinach salad that was very good. For breakfast I had cereal (Frosted Mini Wheats), and a cup of coffee. During my run I drank G2 Fruit Punch Gatorade (about 8 ounces). When I got home I ate my mid morning snack: medium Gala apple. Around 1:30pm I ate lunch: Smart Ones Mesquite Chicken, and then ate my mid afternoon snack around 5pm: 2 servings of baby carrots. After dinner I was WAY under my daily calories so I ate a Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich.
By the time I went to bed I was craving something sweet so I ate 2.5 sugar free black licorice sticks Nd then a couple pieces of sugar free gum.
Today was a good day. I came in way under my daily calorie limit and I managed to workout even though it was a busy day.
