Paying the Wages of FAIL

Wednesday, January 30, 2013

As expected, didn't feel great this morning.  This is what happens when you eat a bunch of junk and don't exercise.  Interestingly, I think I continue to adjust to my dietary changes - I think among other things I'm becoming more sensitive to vegetable oil (in this case from the chips)  and it just doesn't taste as good.

Mentally it's been a good morning thus far, I think I'm bouncing back.  This is a good thing.

Evening edit:  A good day for the most part.  Big day tomorrow, will conclude with some drinking so it will be another FAIL day - especially if the weather stinks in the morning.

Breakfast:  ~ 2 oz salami, 2 slices cheddar, coffee.  The usual.  Didn't bother with a picture.

Lunch:  Bowl of homemade vegetable beef soup, 2 bubbies dill pickles

Now with even more glare!
Snack:  A bunch of peanuts in the shell.  Almost done with the big bag.  Ate too many.

Dinner:  Spicy beans with turkey.  Also finished off the potato chips I started on yesterday.

I thought it would be more than this.  
Bottom line, don't keep junk in the house or it WILL be consumed.

Exercise:  C25k week 5 day 1.  Jog 5 minutes, walk 3, jog 5, walk 3, jog 5.  I have to say it was not pretty. My legs, knees on down, were not keen on the idea of jogging, so the first segment was a little awkward but thankfully not too painful.  The second was decent.  The last one was pretty sad.  I made it through but at a snail's pace.  I would have been lapped by any competent race walker.  I forgot to reset the pedometer but working backward I think it showed 3.3 miles in about 57 minutes.  I have a lot of work to do if I'm going to clock something under 45 minutes in May.

I just looked at the schedule and holy cow, this is the week where the intensity jumps big time.  On Friday I'm supposed to do a couple of 8 minute segments and then on Monday 20 minutes without walking!
