Day 34 - Baby Steps



I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir, but it absolutely sucks how quickly you can put on weight and how long it takes to lose it.  Just a couple of days eating too much can ruin the momentum.  I suppose that's why most people have a cheat meal, not a cheat week like I just had. 

The good news is that all of the Halloween candy has been eaten, taken to work, or given away.  So, that temptation is gone.  Plus, the seasoned crackers are gone as of me writing this - I had some more today.  I'm just glad we don't have any restaurant meetups this week.

Today's meals:
Breakfast:  Some seasoned crackers
Lunch:  Yogurt
Snack:  Homemade popcorn, a mini Snickers (there was a couple hidden!), Mt Dew White Label (x2)
Dinner:  Homemade fish soup.  Never made it or had it before.  Was actually really good and probably decently healthy. 

I can tell that my diet is not ideal as I've had heartburn today.  Sucks. 

Exercise: This is day two of the 100pushup challenge.  Today I did the following sets:
10,12,8,8,12
I'm glad that I started  the push up challenge on Friday so I had two days off as I was still a bit sore.  It's crazy how much strength I've lost. 
I also took a bike ride again.  I haven't done the official measurement, but I'm still guessing it was 2-3 miles round trip.  I almost turned around due to the cold.  The wind picks up and freezes your fingers to the grips.  I might have to start using the elliptical to get my muscles working.  It's just not as scenic. 

Thirty-four days down.
