It's okay, I didn't need my arms or legs for anything....ever

After three days of heavy weights, my limbs are fried. I swear, last night I had a hard time picking up my three pound weights to put them away. My 12s and 15s are still sitting on my living room floor. I'm having a hard time typing today and my thighs scream at me when I walk. I'm glad I don't have any more weight workouts scheduled until Sunday. Something that I'm really proud of: since I got my barbell (best $35 I ever spent), I can lift MUCH heavier for lower body work. I was doing leg presses and squats with my barbell loaded to 45 pounds and I actually did every rep without missing a beat. I need to pick up some 2.5 pound plates though so I can go up in weight in 5 pound increments. 10 pound increments are a little much.

Here's what I ate yesterday
B: oatmeal with blueberries and soy milk
S: banana
L: Sandwich made with fake turkey, veggie cheese, mustard and lettuce on whole wheat bread, lentil soup
S: Homemade vegan chocolate pudding *drool*
D: Vegan mac & cheese made with whole wheat macaroni, nutritional yeast, veggie cheese and steamed brocolli
S: two slices of whole wheat bread with light margarine (I was so hungry after my workout that I was dizzy)

Workout: Pyramid Upper Body + 30 min. walk
