Tuesday's Accomplishments

Exercise: Strength

Calories: 2015 (estimate)

I did a really great strength workout this morning - The Firm Super Sculpting. I hadn't done this one in awhile and I forgot how good it is. I was proud of myself because even though I wasn't up for working out this morning (I was up a little later than usual last night) I worked out anyway and did a tough workout.

As for the diet, I am fairly confident I was on target today, although most of my calories are an estimate so I can't be 100% sure. For breakfast I had my shake, minus the cocoa (260). For lunch we went to Marathon Grill . My first inclination was the get a salad, thinking it may be a conservative meal calorie-wise, but I really like cesaer salad and in looking up the calories, I saw it is 200 calories per cup! Forget that! Considering Marthon salads are probably 7 cups in size, I figured I'd rather eat something more enjoyable for the that many calories. Anyway, I decided on the salmon burger (which is like a salmon cake). It was deeeeeeeelicious! It came on a big, soft roll topped with carmelized onions, red peppers and goat cheese. It also came with a large side of the most delicious hand-cut fries which I dipped in some ketchup. It was a big meal and after looking up the values for all the components of this meal (of course, estimating the weight and size of each component), I estimated the meal at 1,340 calories. I also had some chocolate today (415). Because of the overindulgence at lunch (and the fact that I had used up my calories for the day), I skipped dinner. No problem - that huge meal pretty much held me over anyway.
