For breakfast I had 1 scrambled
egg, 2 servings of instant grits, a tablespoon of butter, 6 ounces of milk and
8 ounces of orange juice. The milk is 2% milk.
Lunch was delicious, with thinly sliced deli turkey on 2 slices of bread and
some mayo and a slice of Colby Jack cheese. I drank water and had green beans.
Oh yeah, I had a brownie for lunch.
For dinner, Mary and I had chicken tacos with lettuce, tomatoes, shredded sharp
cheddar cheese, sour cream, and some salsa. We were out of taco seasoning. It
was delicious. For dessert, I only had 2 brownies. Ouch. That hurt. Luckily the
brownies are just about all gone.
I did exercise today. Four miles walking in the forest and marsh area of
Blackwell forest preserve and 45 minutes weightlifting. Concentrating on
Shoulders, back and biceps. The forest preserve was interesting today. With all
the snow on the ground the forested area was like looking at a black and white
photo. All the black vertical trees against a background of white. Very cool.
It has been 3 months since I weightlifted, and I am really sore from the day
before. Tomorrow the pain will be worse. Nothing is hurt, it is just sore
muscles. Weightlifting has always been a challenge for me. I just have to work
through it.
If you haven't been exercising because you don't won't to go through this pain,
then today is the day you need to put all that behind you. It is only temporary
and imagine how great you'll look in 8 weeks. You're gonna look terrific. I
know it. So get out there and walk, lift weights, do Yoga, whatever. Just get
going.
