6 of 20: Friday morning legs

I'm proud of myself AGAIN because I did get up early yesterday and workout before my busy day. And I'm glad I did because I totally forgot I had a party to go to last night. I went straight from work and arrived to the party late. I asked if she had food b/c if not, I was going to stop on the way. I was starving (it was 7pm) so I didn't want to get there, see only junk food, be starving and then end up making poor decisions because of it.

She said she had food.

She had junk food.

I was still MOSTLY good. I ate a lot of fruit, a few meatballs and only 1 dessert item. I had 2 glasses of wine.

Not perfect but also much better than I would have done a month ago. I would have ate a few of everything before!!

Here's the workout I did yesterday morning:

24 minute treadmill workout
1 minute at 5.5mph
30 seconds at 7.5 mph
30 seconds rest
Repeat 12 times
I did it all at a 2* incline

Next time I'll go faster, although it was still challenging, it could be harder.

Legs:
Back squat 4 rounds 8 reps each at 50#
Walking lunges w/ 40# bar 4 rounds 8 steps w/ each leg
Leg extension machine 70# 4 rounds 8 reps each ----> held reps at the top to make sure it was hard enough, will go heavier next time.

  1. That's awesome! Parities/social events are the hardest for me. I get very self-conscious and eat to push those feelings of inadequacy and social anxiety down. Also, it's so darn hard to resist a cookie or two! I mean, yum!
