Day 18

Why was today's workout so hard? My legs hurt so much. I still managed to do 50 minutes/3.2 miles/431 calories. I only walked at a 2% incline instead of my normal 3% however, and I did not use the free weights. I guess I shouldn't beat myself up too bad since I still did my workout and didn't wuss out completely. I've been really tired today too and a little congested/coughing. I better not be getting sick. That could be detrimental to my exercising. I really don't think that if I'm feeling crummy I'm going to want to do my walking. Took some Airborne just in case so we'll see. I seem to get sick a lot down here; 6 times last year!

Trying to find some good lo-carb recipes online. But not like crazy Atkins style ones. Just reasonable meals that are naturally low in carbohydrates. Today I saw a recipe to make bread using eggs and cream cheese. Okeeeee....weird! If I want bread that bad I'll just buy some lo-carb bread. Maybe I'll try looking at South Beach recipes. Maybe that's closer to what I am trying to achieve. I did well on my diet again today. That darned Paula Deen is making it difficult for me again! Today she made a caramel apple cheesecake. YUMMY! Is it bad that I do my workouts on the treadmill while watching Food Network??? Hehe. :) Anywhoo, here's what I ate today:

BREAKFAST:
-lo-carb strawberry yogurt
-1 apple

LUNCH:
-leftover Greek salad
-leftover chicken breast
-s.f. cherry pomegranate drink

DINNER:
-grilled pork chop
-green beans
-sauteed apples w/cinnamon & Splenda
