Unexpected progress

So...it's been over a full week since we started working and today I noticed some neat progress. If you'll remember last week, I tried the Precor Elliptical. Yeah, I barely made it a minute before I had to stop for a second. I stayed on it for 5 minutes but it wasn't pretty. Plus, after that, my legs would barely hold me up, and my thighs were SO sore the next day! Well, today, I hopped on it, and was able to do 5 minutes straight! Ok, it was a SLOW 5 minutes at times, but I did not stop once. Even better, no leg weakness and no soreness! Score! It was neat to see the difference in just one week. So that was cool.

Ok on to food...breakfast was a PBJ before the workout. Afterward, we hit up Chili's. I had some chips and salsa, a house salad (no croutons) and then the Lighter Side sirloin steak which just came with broccoli, no rice or potatoes. That steak was freakin awesome. lol I had kind of an early dinner after some park time for D, a corn dog and then some tater tots. Later on in the evening, I had a bowl of spaghetti and a glass of milk since I was a bit hungry. This ended my day at 2168 calories.

Workout was 15 min on the treadmill, 5 min on the elliptical, and about 30 min doing weight training.
