Right Choices

Day 2 on my new workout regime and heathly eating kick.

Weight: 16 st 11.8 lbs (-1 lbs)

The hardest thing so far is dinner time for the simple reason my in laws (to be) lovely make me dinner. I am very grateful for them doing so however my only issue is that I am unsure of my calorie intake so I have taken to over estimating (I hope) the calories within the food. Plus I have completely cut down on how much I am eating during this time and not eating certain foods. While I have spoken to him about it my issue is I don't want to sound ungrateful.

I'm not gonna lie. I am still stiff from yesterday's strength workout so decided to rest my muscles today with the aim being to complete a 40 minute strength workout tomorrow. Hence upping yesterday's by 20 minutes. I also finally got the treadmill fixed so I am looking forward to starting my 5k Podcast tomorrow. My goal is to do that right after my strenght workout as it will increase my afterburn plus doing it the other way can result in fatigue which means I could injure myself.
I got my bike set up today so ended up cycling for 26 mins burning 350 calories. While this is below my daily goal is have learned that I need to slowly up what I am doing as I am struggling since I am at the start of my journey. This isn't an excuse but I find myself tiring very quickly.
