Today was a bit of a busy day. I had lots of errands to run and I ended up choosing to golf instead of getting my workout in. I did choose to walk instead of ride, but that's really not a replacement for the training I want. So why tell you this? Well to show that I'm not perfect and am far from it. I was talking with someone about a month ago who reads my blog and sees my posts on Facebook and My Fitness Pal and she asked me "how do you not drink, not eat junk, exercise daily, etc.?" That sort of took me by surprise and after thinking about it a while I realized that I might be giving people that impression which in turn may discourage people when they're not perfect. I write my blog and publish posts because I don't think what I'm doing is remarkable in the sense that others can't do it too. Therefore as much as I'd like to stroke my ego and create this image of perfect adherence to my plans, I want to be honest and transparent in the hopes that you'll gain some sort of inspiration from how I'm able to recognize my slips and use them to motivate me to do better.
Meals:
Chocolate Shakeology w/ peanut butter & skim milk
Roast beef sandwich & wheat thins
Meatball sandwich & wheat thins
Not exactly sticking to my plans there either, though I didn't really hurt myself. I had planned on making turkey chili for dinner but didn't get home til late. I had some homemade meatballs left over in the fridge so I put those on a whole wheat bun. It's not the best meal for me, but it's not going to hurt me either. What I'm not happy about is skipping the two other meals and not having a variety in there.
Favorite meal:
Exercise:
Walked 9 holes, which ends up being about 2 miles of walking while carrying a 40 (?) pound bag.
