Day 2

I made it through yesterday. I followed the diet pretty good yesterday. Tammye was super sweet and made me all veggies for dinner. Stuffed portabello mushrooms, yum!! I was going grocery shopping but decided to mow. Now under normal circumstances that would not sound like a major undertaking. However the rain that has been here lately has made my backyard grow into a small jungle. I expect guerilla forces to run out and ask me to join the revolution any moment. Also, on top of the rain it has been way too cold. Yesterday was a glorious 84. That is crazy in February, but I will take it. Last year we had a crap load of snow and no power for like 3 or 4 days. Yeah, I'll take the warmer weather. I worked arms yesterday and the mowing was an additional workout for my arms. I was exhausted when I went to bed and kept waking up because my arms were sore. They are still sore today. Today I am tired. I wasn't yesterday. Definitely did not want to get out bed this morning to go and work out. That's for sure! I did it. Made a commitment and more importantly it is good for me. Definitely makes me feel old though. That part sucks. I wish I had made this kind of change when I was 23. I squandered away the past 20 years. But I still have a lot of good years ahead of me. Josh woke up sore from his gym class yesterday. Had to give him some tylenol. Ha, felt his pain. I will share with him the wonders of epsom salt tonight. Today was legs. I am not sure I worked them out as well as I could have. I hope it wasn't half-assed, but I have a feeling it was. I will have to give it a little more effort on Monday. Tomorrow morning is circuit, that's all the body parts. 1 set 15 reps. I have to go to the grocery store tonight. I don't have a choice. Even if it is only to get the dinner stuff. I need to find a recipe today. I guess I can always have Tammye go and get the stuff. I will say I feel totally stuffed in the morning and for very little calories. I had 2 shredded wheat bisuits, blueberries, milk and egg whites. Haven't figured out all the calories yet but probably about 353. That is not bad and it will definitely keep me filled up for a long time. I guess that is the best part of the whole food, clean diet. You get a lot more volume.
