Ok, I got through the first 5 business days doing great with both the diet and exercise, now lets see how I do on the weekend! (although I have to work all day today, so today is a lot of the same)
I stocked up on good foods for the house last night- shortcuts chicken, tuna, salad, fruit, avocados, veggie burgers and some easy-to-make skillet dinners., so at least I''m prepared. I guess I forgot that eating healthy and well is all about planning- I wouldn''t feel so successful this week if I hadn''t planned ahead, brought food to work and wrote EVERYTHING down.
I did go to the gym today- used the cybex trainer for 1 hr. The cybex doesn''t use your arms like the arc trainer so I noticed that my heart rate was a little lower but it stayed mainly in the fat-burning zone vs cardio so that''s good (I wear a heart monitor) I''m going to go back after work to see if the gym is quiet and if so I''m going to start my weights today at a leisurely pace. Wish me luck!!
Hope everyone has a great weekend and does something FUN!!!!
