A much better day all around. My muscle soreness had gone by yesterday morning and I was feeling much better, so not only did I get some work done in the morning but my resistance workout in the afternoon went very well. I was also eating better, getting more protein, complex carbohydrates and vegetables. Unfortunately I fell into the dieting trap of getting too few calories, with less than 1550 calories consumed at 8:30pm. Which is when I decided a cheese plate was just the thing to get my total up, then a couple of cookies can’t hurt, then a nightcap . . . which led to a low percentage of protein and a high percentage of fat. I don’t really mind the final calorie count though, because not only did I workout yesterday, but 2050 is still 500 calories less than I had the day before!
Hopefully this trend for working out and eating less will continue so that I’ll be back into my routine by Tuesday. Of course, tonight being New Year’s Eve I doubt I’ll manage to eat and drink less! Even though my husband and I are not going out, we’ll still be having a bit of a celebration here!
Happy New Year all!
