Wow!  What a good day today.  It’s already the end of week one, I stayed in again last night, and I’m feeling pretty great.  I had a really good work-out, but strained my quad.  I warmed up and stretched, but I do remember the point where my muscles said stop, and my pride said no.  Now I’m wishing I would have listened.

Well I’m about to start week 2, and I would like to do better that week 1!! I need to concentrate on my work-outs.  I need to make sure that I’m giving my 110% each time, that also means stopping before injury.  Now I won’t be able to push my legs to their full potential all week, but I’m in need of a heavy cardio week anyway.  I also want to work on in taking more calories.  1200 is the bare bare minimum, and I really should eat 1500calories each day.

I am actually enjoying the tastes and smells of a lot of different veggies.  I’ve been seeing those dominos pasta bread bowls what feels like every other commercial.  At first they looked really nasty, but after a week of carb deprivation they’re looking pretty tasty.  Just out of curiosity I went onto the website to take a look at the nutritional facts.  Between 670-730cal and 24-28 g of fat.  Not to bad for a cheat meal I thought.  Until I double checked the serving size….I should have known….2 serving per bowl.  That means 1340-1460calories and 48-56g of fat, that’s an entire day’s calories and two days of day for an average woman!  Needless to say, those bowls aren’t looking so appealing anymore……
