Challenge 3, Day 23

Week 4 is off to a decent start at least :)  I did get my cardio done this morning; I did 30 minutes on the Nordic Track before work.  I was supposed to do 45 minutes but did not wake up in time to get all of that in so I figured 2/3 of a workout was better than none.

I am encouraged because I think on week 3 when I did 5 Nordic Track workouts in conjunction with my weight workouts (2 out of 3 at least), I think I lost 3 or 4 pounds that week.  I forgot to weigh myself at the beginning of my free day but did weight myself on Tuesday of Week 3 and noticed that I was in fact 3 or 4 pounds lighter than my previous weight.  This gives me hope that this will work and perhaps this is the key for my weight loss:  stick with 3 weight workouts a week but up my cardio significantly to burn more calories.

I did not do so well with my nutrition today.  Started off with a protein shake but followed it up with pizza at lunch…oh well.  I will try to do better a dinner this evening and fix a salad.  We’ve got 3 or 4 bags of salad in the fridge at home that need to be eaten and I’m getting really tired of Thanksgiving left overs…

Hopefully I will wake up in time for a 30 minute session on the Nordic Track in the morning then its off to the gym during lunch for a UBWO….
