I did go swimming, though. I felt lethargic for the beginning of my swim but got renewed energy toward the end of my workout. I decided to try some intervals.\u00a0 I swam a few laps as fast as I could, then went back to swimming my normal pace. It was nice way to switch up my routine and I&#8217;m going to keep trying intervals. With swimming, distance was always my focus. I wanted to be able to swim a significant distance without tiring. I think now that I&#8217;ve achieved that, it&#8217;s time to switch focus.<\/p>\n<p>I was craving pizza yesterday so I made Michael&#8217;s dream come true and suggested we get a pizza for dinner. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/delitepizza.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9063\" title=\"delitepizza\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/delitepizza-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/delitepizza-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/delitepizza.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>We went to Papa Murphy&#8217;s and got the Meat deLite this time.
