6 days in a row
I have a new challenge for myself. I'm have to work out six days in a row before I can take a planned rest day. The rule is that I have to do some kind of exercise every day, even if it's just a 30 minute walk around my neighborhood. For like three years I was working out 5-6 days a week and then this year I've totally lost my exercise mojo. Well, I've had enough of that. I'm going to get back in shape if it kills me. Put that together with a strict vegan diet (that doesn't include fried junk food) and I'll be back in my size 6 jeans in no time (my size 8s are feeling a little snug, and that frightens me.)
Here's a rough outline of what I have planned for myself this 6-day period:
Day 1: Yesterday I did a 41 minute premix from Step Blast
Day 2: Today I'm going to do a nice long workout since I'm only working half a day. I'm going to lunch with my friend Janet and I have a waxing appointment and I need to get my brakes fixed and drop Nick off for a camp out but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to squeeze it in. I'm thinking Complete Aerobic & Weight Training.
Day 3: Saturday we're probably going hiking. That totally counts.
Day 4: Sunday is going to be a busy day (for a Sunday) the cable guy is coming so I either need to workout early in the morning before he shows up, or after he leaves. I think I'll do Low Max. That night we're going to another concert so we'll need to head downtown in the afternoon (we're going to see Ludo, if you've never heard them, run out right now and buy their album, "You're Awful, I Love You". You won't regret it.) At some point I'm going to need to buy groceries too so yeah, busy day.
Day 5: Monday is TV night so that makes it harder to squeeze in a workout. I think I'll do a short one, like Express Cardio
Day 6: Tuesday me and Sean will probably go to the gym and run on treadmills together.
So if all goes according to plan, Wednesday will be a rest day, which is perfect because that's when the kids have all their church activities in the evening.
Here's what I ate yesterday:
B: Oatmeal with blueberries, flax seed and soy milk
L: Fake Chicken Sandwich (made with whole wheat bread, veganaise, avocado, lettuce and a gardenburger fake chicken patty) and an apple
S: Cliff Bar
D: Veggie Fajitas (giant mess of grilled veggies with tortillas, salsa and guacamole), black beans and rice
Eating and exercise-wise, probably the best day I've had in a long time.
