I got in my 5k run yesterday - I rocked it in 33 minutes!!!! I had to double check, but sure enough! And here I was feeling slow and yuck because it was chilly out. We made chicken sausage for dinner and then I did Burn Circuit 1. I am definitely getting stronger..still broke a sweat last night but didn’t get to the point of failure on any of the circuits. I think I will need to go to 15 lbs next week for the last week of the Burn Phase.
I got my red dress yesterday! I think it is the “wow factor” dress…especially judging by DH’s reaction (”wow!”) Since I had to rush to get in my workout I didn’t get a chance to take pictures, but I’ll do that tonight. Today is just Burn Circuit 2, but I’d like to get in some cardio so I think I’ll go to the gym after work and do the elliptical/cross trainer for an hour.
Tonight I’m making a knock off of California Pizza Kitchen’s Thai Crunch Salad:
The original recipe you get at CPK is 731 calories…for HALF of the salad! My version (leaving out the peanuts, wonton strips and rice sticks, and cutting down a LOT on the salad dressing) is 400 calories for the entire salad. I think I will make extra and make a wrap out of it for lunch tomorrow….mmm!
Here is the original recipe: CPK Thai Crunch Salad
