Confession:<\/strong><\/em> <\/span>I ate 14 Peanut M&M’s at work yesterday and only counted 10 of them. For some reason in my mind those extra 4 I snagged at the end of the day “didn’t count.” I have no idea why I fudged it but I felt so guilty as the day progressed that I fixed the calories in my MyFitnessPal log to be accurate.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nConfession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> The soreness I experienced this week after Crossfit reminded me of the aftermath of Hood to Coast. And it made me really anxious about potential IT Band injury.<\/p>\n

When I hopped on the treadmill at the gym last night I was nervous: would it hurt to run? Would I re-injure myself and have to start all over again? It didn’t turn out to be an issue, so that was good. My muscles were stiff and sore but I had no pain.<\/p>\n

I ran about 3.5-3.7 miles on the treadmill at a steady pace. I’m not sure the exact mileage because half way through I switched machines so I could be next to my friend Robyn who joined me for the workout.<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> Doing the traditional weight machines after my Crossfit experience was kind of a bummer. I definitely didn’t feel like I was getting the same workout.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBut I was able to do a bunch of pull-ups and chin-ups on a harder setting on the Gravitron machine! After Robyn and I got in a weight lifting session we stretched and parted ways.<\/p>\n

\nGym Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Time: 1:18<\/strong>
\nCalories Burned: 655<\/strong><\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> I kinda wanted to just eat cheese and crackers for dinner last night. But I was “good” and ate healthy food instead. Michael and I ate salads as we cooked dinner together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nHe blackened the salmon and I steamed veggies for me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI steamed some cauliflower and broccoli and added Goddess Dressing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIt was the better choice than crackers and cheese for dinner. Or chips and salsa–that was my go-to dinner many times back in the day!<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> I miss the cooking Michael and I used to do together. We used to try new recipes all the time but lately we’ve been too busy, had a house guest and just got in a rut. I’m looking forward to doing it again soon.<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> We are going out to dinner tonight with Michael’s family to celebrate his birthday (belated) and I am hoping I can show restraint with the garlic bread! Yikes!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n <\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em><\/span> I took “Before” Photos of my stomach back in September before I started weight lifting with the intention of posting the “Before and After”…but I will probably never show those photos. I’m too self-conscious and I don’t see a change in that one area yet. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n
