Well, today’s workout was fairly uneventful.  My triceps feel like jello, but that’s about it.  Nothing else much to say about it.

Today was a pretty good day for diet again. First thing I noticed this morning was that I lost 0.8lbs since yesterday. It shows once again what I saw last time when I started working out - that you have to exercise AND eat healthy to lose weight. I’m still very much experimenting with what I can make within the guidelines of the healthy food I want to eat, and I haven’t had time to go and get all the groceries I need. However, I still managed to eat really healthy today. This is what I ate:

Breakfast:
Nothing

Lunch:
Bowl of Pacific Brand Organic Tomato Soup

Dinner:
Big Salad - Lettuce, mixed greens, baby spinach, green onions, red pepper, radishes, cherry tomatoes, avacado, cucumber, pumpkin seeds, pine nuts, flax seed and some sprinkled on dehydrated cranberries.

Snacks:
Organic Apple
Banana
Raw Almonds

One thing I definitely need to get better at is drinking more water. I didn’t drink any pop or tea or anything with sugar in it, but then I also didn’t drink any water all day. Need to get into that habit.
