So it wasn’t the best day for dieting. I started off strong with my oatmeal and coffee, but then came lunch. My wife and I had plans to meet up for lunch today but we were struggling to find a restaurant somewhere in the middle. Finally we decided on Chili’s. I didn’t think Chili’s was a bad choice because last time I was there I remember this whole section of the menu of “guiltless grill” choices. See, I can eat healthy when I go out to eat. Well their menu has changed. Besides a few salads, there weren’t a lot of choices. So…I ordered a steak. I know, steak isn’t on most diet plans but at least I ordered it with brown rice and broccoli for sides. I should have ordered a salad but I haven’t been able to jump that hurdle yet. But I’ve felt bad about my lunch all day today.
Breakfast
Oatmeal
2 cups of coffee with 2 tablespoons of creamer
Lunch
8oz sirloin steak
Brown rice
Broccoli
Dinner
French dip sandwich
Ice tea
Surprisingly, even with what I thought was bad eating on my part today, I still stayed at about 1500 calories. Wow! I thought I really blew it today. No matter what the numbers added up to, I still feel bad about my choices today and I will do better tomorrow.
As for activity today, according to my training schedule today was supposed to be a rest day or cross training. It was such a beautiful day today there was no way I was just going to just rest. I went and picked up my little girl from daycare and we rushed home to go on a bike ride. I hooked up her trailer and we went for a ride down the Cherry Creek trail. It was great!
Activity
5 mile bike ride
1.5 mile walking
Yoga later tonight.
Up early again tomorrow morning for some running. See you out on the road!
