Souper Sunday

So on Sundays now I usually have soup for lunch. Maybe with a nice chicken salad and some pretzels. This is the kind of stuff that fits into my diet. It's not that I am starving myself or eating things I don't like, I'm just trying to eat less of everything.

Knowing that I won't be able to make it to the gym today, I worked out on the Fit for 1 hour this morning. I also plan to do at least another 30-45 minutes tonight. I really like the variety of activities on the Fit. This morning I did 6 yoga poses and 5 strength activities. After that I did some expert rhythm boxing, advanced step aerobics and a 10 minute run. I usually finish off my work outs with a zen meditation pose for a couple minutes.

Yesterday was my hardest workout since I started. I did some yoga and strength on the Fit and then in the afternoon I went to the gym. Now this wasn't just some sill 30 minutes at the gym, this was all out. I started with 45 minutes on the eliptical followed by 30 minutes of the weight machines. That gave me enough time to do 3 sets of 10 on 12 different machines, ranging from biceps to calves to abs. After the machines I did 45 minutes on the bike and called it quits. So in all I was working out for 2 hours.

My goal for this week is 6-7 pounds. I think that is attainable, as I have already lost at least 4. By Wednesday I think I can easily be there.

Oh yeah, Cardinals win 30-28
