So, my grand plan for today through Monday was to work out for an hour each day, and today I actually did it.  I’m really kind of surprised with myself.  I didn’t do it this afternoon as planned (I took a nap instead), but once I got home around 9, I forced myself to go put on workout clothes before it got too late, and I just started.  I did go dig out the mp3 player, and it gave me quite a bit of extra motivation– that and when my best friend called for the last half of the workout, it made the time go much faster.  Unfortunately, I probably worked less hard because of it, but oh well.  Here are the stats of my workout:

time: 60 minutes (a few more for cool down)

calories burned: 420, according to the machine, but probably more

distance: 3.25 miles, average speed about 3.1 mph

So, I’ve probably almost negated the Papa John’s (if you take off the calories I would have eaten for lunch anyway), but if I do this again tomorrow, I will definitely have covered the PJ debacle.  I need to work out the other two days to offset the effects of the chinese food I’ll be eating on Sunday.  Chinese isn’t really even my thing, but that’s where they’re taking me, so I’ll have to get something.  The other problem is that the only thing I really like is chicken lo mein– fried in oil, of course, so totally bad for me.  Still, if I work out, I suppose that’s okay.

Here’s today’s food:

Breakfast: cheese toast, 1 egg white, HNS

Lunch: chicken and spinach salad (2oz. chicken, 1 oz. parmesan), applesauce (50), HNS

Dinner: cheese toast, applesauce, HNS

water: 64 oz. (I’ll try for more tomorrow since I’m working out.)
