Workout
Today was Sunday. The only strenuous physical activity I did was raking the lawn for an hour. Spring has sprung, or pretty close to it.
Nutrition
There were a couple of opportunities to really blow it today, but in the end I managed to break even (or pretty close, at +100 calories). The usual Sunday snacks were light. I did sneak in that cup of coffee. We had salmon fillets for lunch. For dinner, I resisted the urge for a pizza slice (or two), and had the remainder of my chicken veggie soup instead. Once in a while, pretty often actually, I do make the right choices.
Health and well-being
Other than my usual church activities, and the hour outside raking, I took it easy today. I’m not sure if I will get to bed early or not, though, which makes Monday morning pretty interesting sometimes.
Where Do I Go From Here?
In the book Bring It!, Tony recommends the nutritional cleanse for a month, and the exercise program for six weeks. One of the concepts he emphasizes throughout the book is finding the nutrition and exercise plan that works for each individual, even if it is not the one he describes. I think I could have done better with the cleanse, and maybe I will some week or month in the near future, but I am ready to change the exercise routine at this point. Whether I return to P90X or something else is under consideration.
For those of you who are reading my updates as they are released, or in the weeks and months that follow, thank you! From this point I will make weekly updates. The daily format is getting difficult to maintain (as my last week’s posts have been compiled over the course of a few days), and there isn’t much news from day to day. I should do a before and after comparison, but I don’t want to interfere with my weekday workouts, so that might wait for next weekend.
