I can't be fat forever

This morning my alarm went off at 5am and I hit the snooze button. And then I hit it two more times until finally I sat up in bed and told Matt,

"I can't be fat forever!"

So I put on my shoes, grabbed my IPod (I wasn't going to forget it this time) and water and I was out the door. I decided to do something different than the eliptical today so I chose a different cardio machine. To spare you my description of the machine, I will include a picture:



(Side note: When I googled this for an image, the price for these machines run from $4-6,000! Holy @#A!)

I did 25 minutes at level 2 and felt good once I was done (Seriously? $6,000? I could buy a decent used car for that price)

I then headed to the weight machines. I did 4 different arm machines (3 sets of 10 each), then headed home. There's something about taking a shower after a good workout that makes me feel ready for the day!

I made sure to eat breakfast before I left for work. I chose 1 cup of Kashi cereal (200 cal) with 1/2 cup of low fat milk (65 cal). As a midmorning snack I had a light fat free yogurt (80 cal) and I am currently enjoying a McDonalds Southwest (grilled) chicken salad and a diet coke (420 cal). Total calories so far: 765. I have an apple for my mid afternoon snack and we'll be having burritos for dinner.

On the agenda for tomorrow: Spin class at 5:30am!

  1. What is that thing? Looks like a good workout. Sometimes I wish I belonged to the gym.
