<\/a>\nToe Touches are harder than they look! I did a modified “Ab Burner” workout for 22 minutes.\u00a0 I burned 136 calories during my warm-up\/ab workout.<\/p>\n
Time: 1:10 Calories Burned: 539<\/strong><\/p>\n After my workout I fixed myself dinner. Michael had leftover Curried Cauliflower Soup (it’s much better as a leftover) and I made an amazing salmon for dinner!<\/p>\n The trick with eating ice cream is to use a really small bowl so you don’t overeat. It also makes it look like you’re getting more than you really are. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n My knee bugged me A LOT last night. \ud83d\ude41 I iced and I tried some Icy Hot on my leg as a desperate measure.\u00a0 Fat Kitty seemed to LOVE the Icy Hot.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nSince I modified the workout, I skipped the side-planks and did lots of extra Russian Twists.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI set up the bike on the trainer and turned on my TV shows. During my whole workout I got through one episode of NCIS and started the premiere of SVU.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI think now that the ITB Wrap caused more problems then helped me last night. During my bike ride my knee started to hurt. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI was able to do the bike trainer workout for about 40 minutes before my knee was bugging me so much I called it quits. I have no way of tracking the mileage I do on the bike trainer currently but if I cycle about 10 miles an hour, my 40 minute workouts are probably about 7 or 8 miles total. In three weeks I’ve done about 24 miles so far.<\/p>\n<\/a>

\nIt was similar to the lemon pepper and butter salmon I do but MUCH better. I sprinkled a little lemon pepper seasoning on the salmon.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI skipped the butter (honestly I just forgot to add it) and put the slices of lemons on top of the salmon. Then I wrapped it loosely in foil and baked it at 350 for about 18 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nWhile it was baking I made a salad.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nDinner was AMAZING. The salmon was the most perfect salmon I’ve ever eaten. I am so impressed at how much of a difference using fresh lemon makes. Plus it did not need the butter at all!<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI will most definitely be doing salmon this way in the future. I had a glass of chardonnay with my salmon and we watched Top Chef.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nThank you all for the great comments and insight on yesterday’s post! It was a very thought-provoking discussion and I liked reading the differing opinions. A common thought was maybe just eating HALF of the calories I burn working out. I think that’s a good place to start. So last night I did not eat all the calories I burned. Even having a glass of wine and dessert I had 350 calories left for the day. I think it’s a good start.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nI had two scoops of ice cream and debated with myself about the 7 pounds. Do I really want to sacrifice things like ice cream and wine from my life for 7 pounds? I workout enough to maintain my weight but restricting my diet drastically isn’t really something I want to do right now. The fact that I even have to DEBATE is my answer. Why? Because when I was 250 and made the choice to lose 100 pounds there was no debate. I was determined to lose the weight and there was no wavering.<\/p>\n
