Yesterday was my rest day, so I didn't put anything in my journal in the morning.
Did my cardio this morning...it was a good workout, but my knee is giving me some issues. It kind of feels like it is in a bind.
I'm a little frustrated with myself because Sunday evening I went with my husband and a group of friends to the Melting Pot. Mmmmm. It was so good---but oh my gosh I so overate. But I was kind of like--if I'm paying $70 bucks for dinner, I'm going to eat it. Of course, I didn't have to pay an additional $13 for half a bottle of wine...that was just icing.
So cheese fondue (with bread and apples and vegetables)
Salad with mushrooms and a herb vinaigrette
Various meats--filet, pork tenderloin, chicken, and shrimp
Chocolate--with various items to dip in (strawberries, marshmallows, rice krispies, etc)
1/2 bottle white wine.
It was a two hour long meal. You basically had to roll me out. Honestly, I don't think what I ate was that horrible--but today (after Melting Pot Sunday and only processed foods yesterday--don't ask, it was a really busy day--lean cuisines, frozen pizza, etc) I'm up 2 lbs. I was also so bloated and feeling ick yesterday, so what do I do? I eat a brownie. Why? Because it's in the kitchen and it looks good. Oh and then we never have peanut M&M's in the candy lady's office, so I ate some of those too. And I understand that I'm going to have some fluctuations but I feel like I just keep see-sawing back and forth and I every time I come down, I slam into the ground and can't go any further. And then I get frustrated and say f*** it.
I really hoped to have made a little progress by now--I'm going on vacation Friday and I won't be back until the 14th...
Anyway--I just needed to vent. I'm worked out and had a bagel. I've got my fruit and yogurt and stuff ready to go for lunch today. I'm back on the wagon. I have a mild concussion from falling off, but I'm back on, nonetheless.
I've never had melting pot, and I won't be trying it anytime soon! ;) Salt is INTENSE if you eat out, anywhere, really. I think cheese has its fair share, too. No worries. Don't get frustrated, it is okay!!! Have a great vacation :) |
Is my sodium intake too low?
You have nothing to worry about because sodium deficiency is extremely rare. In fact, there is not even an recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA... Read more
