Long day

But a good day. I overslept a bit so was about 10 minutes late to the gym. I'm so glad I have a workout buddy because odds are, without knowing she was waiting, I likely would have skipped it. But we did good. Spent about 1.5 hours there. And apparently I worked out SO good that my legs had no more energy left in them when we left. I stepped down off the step and BAM, my knee gave way and I hit the ground. Fortunately, I'd already changed into my jeans so the concrete didn't tear my knee up too bad.

Ok on to food. I did pretty good today. Before the workout, I had some peanut butter crackers and 1.25 bottles of gatorade during it. Afterward, my workout buddy and I took our kiddos to Chili's for lunch. I had some chips and salsa, and then the sweet and spicy chicken (grilled chicken with a sauce, plus rice and broccoli). I added a house salad to that with ranch (but took off the croutons), and unsweet tea. In the afternoon, I had another bottle of gatorade. And for dinner, D and I hit up Jason's Deli. I had a cup of broccoli cheese soup, a salad, and some apple slices to end my day at 2020 calories.

For workout, I did 5 minutes on the elliptical (which is what got my legs all trembly and weak...lol). Then 15 min on the treadmill, 10 minutes on the stationary bike, and then the weight training. Yesterday, we did just 1 set of 15 reps each on everything. Today we bumped to 3 sets of 15 reps each for most things. Then after eating lunch, we walked around the outlet mall near us for over 2 hours, and ended up circling the entire mall. I'm tired!! But feeling good...even my knee doesn't feel too bad from where I fell on it. Gotta keep moving!
