I am so happy to see Friday, but I am completely un-motivated and brain dead. Breakfast was on point. Eggs with veggies and bacon and oatmeal. I've given up on work coffee and not really missing it either. Need to remember the water drinking before the meal. I had quite a bit before breakfast (due to the drive), but none right before I left for lunch.
Lunch was sooooo naughty. I had a sonic hot dog and tater tots with a chocolate milkshake. I guess not having my ball park hot dog at the game manifested itself. The good thing on the milkshake? I got a medium and only drank half of it. I'm sitting here full, but I am not uncomfortably stuffed. And trying to catch up on posts.
I set alarms for my 430am wake-ups next week along with what type of exercise I will be doing. 3 runs, 2 lifts, 1 swim, and Sundays off. I also read ahead in the detox and see that we'll be starting some lifting (yes!) at day 29. I decided to start that routine next week and doing 1 round then work up to all 3 rounds by Day 29.
Day 11 also talks about the importance of exercise. Its how we boost our metabolism to burn calories instead of storing them for fat. Also slides in there how important weight training is: shapes your muscles (how you look) and burns fat long after the workout. This reminds of the Facebook group I follow called Ripped Goddesses. The owner did a cool post Thursday. She did a shout-out to different weight ranges and asked people to post their pictures. I wasn't really shocked till we got to 180-280. Holy shit. Some of this women, I never would've guessed at that weight and I would call myself content if my body looked like that.
I left work at 4 and took my butt straight to the gym. I had no motivation to do anything so I decided on elliptical. After the first 10 mins, I got into a groove and did a whole hour. I still was cranky after but felt better about myself.
