I didn't journal on Sunday or Monday. It was a holiday weekend, AND I was starving as I was premenstrual. But I got right back on track Tuesday... for the most part, anyways. : ) I worked my arse off at the Y, and then I came home and took another 1 1/2 hours to mow our lawn! I did soooo good until I went out to dinner with a girlfriend. I was FAMISHED and had just started my period. So I had a burger, the first burger in several months, thank you.
I've been doing really well, I haven't weighed since Saturday. I will once my cycle ends... You know, I've been so encouraged by what I've been able to accomplish with my fitness. It struck me on Tuesday, the day I started my period, that that was the day I've done the most cardio that I've been able to ever do. I did 73 minutes of intense cardio, and I felt soooo good, and strong. In the past when my cycle has started, that would be the one day of the month for sure that I could give myself a pass on working out for the day. But as I've increased my endurance, I didn't even think to take the day off.
Anyhow, here's some stats:
Tuesday: 754 calories up until dinner. I'm not sure what my total was for the day as I had a burger and a couple of drinks. I think it's safe to say that I had at least 2,000 calories for the day. I had 12 glasses of water. I did 73 minutes of cardio, burning 1,100 calories, and lifted 43,400 pounds.
Wednesday: 1,596 calories, 12 glasses of water, and I did 63 minutes of cardio. I burned 900 calories, and lifted 53,000 pounds.
