Sunday Sunday

I ended last night with the determination that I need to PUT MYSELF FIRST. This involves not allowing myself to be overcommitted and letting my needs be a priority. I need the time to work out. I need the time to work with my own horse. This is all a part of becoming a healthier and happier person.

So, today when I was at the barn I took time with Diego. I didn't hurry through his work. I enjoyed myself. I rode him first, before I was stiff and sore and left my training horses for last. Today was a no workout day. I am pretty stiff from the last two days and need to recharge. I will hit the gym first thing tomorrow. I have an appointment with the pain med. doctors to see about injecting my hip or back. Hopefully they will be able to give me some relief.

Eating was good today.

Breakfast 180 cal. south beach diet bar
Lunch 180 cal. south beach diet bar
snack 1/3 c. ff cottage cheese (50 cal.)
Dinner taco time chop salad (210 cal.) with a cup of white chili (98 cal.)

just finished dinner and I am stuffed! My energy level was good all day. I get a bit hungry around 2:00 and taking the second half of my amino acids at that time seems to help me make it to dinner without cheating.

The scale this morning was still 189. I am hoping to see a few ounces loss every day (should lsoe 2-3 lbs a week at least). Not seeing the scale budge was a bit of a downer. Hopefully I will see a blip down tomorrow.
