High Times-Workout Edition

I get why people love to work out now, it makes so much sense! I have burned the same amount of calories that I have eaten today. Incredible? Yes! I am so pumped about it I just want to keep moving to keep the momentum. Obviously I can't do that though because I am pretty sure my legs may fall off any second. I will keep you posted should that occur.

I am sure someone might read this and think, "She has stopped eating! OH NO!" If you are thinking this, don't. I can barely go 3 hours without eating, much less a whole morning of working out. So do not worry Friends! I promise I am eating plenty and to prove this, I will tell you what I ate.

Breakfast
A boiled egg with salt and pepper (75 calories)

Lunch
Mahi Mahi fillet on brown rice with cold green beans (274 calories)
1/4 cup mac and cheese (94 calories)
2 Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, I splurged, but they were so stinking good. (200 calories)

Pretty crazy, right? And I'm not hungry, just full and super worn out. I just did the elliptical, walked on the treadmill, ran on the treadmill, and thanks to my friend Jodie, I did thirty minutes on a stationary bike at the recreation center which helped me burn those last 220 calories. It hurt though and I am pretty sure I will not be able to move tomorrow, but it is worth it to feel this good.

It is such a good feeling to be in control. This is just a sappy/excited post, not clever or even interesting probably, so I apologize for it, but this is the reason for the blog! I know there will be a time down the road when I need encouragement and I will just hop on back to January 20th and look at how great I was doing. Solid plan. At least I like to think so.
