Back on track

So I was discouraged about my journey after a weekend of pop, pizza, chips, birthday cake, pecan pie flavoured ice cream and lack of exercise for a few days ... felt like all my hard work was gone and that's ridiculous! How could it be? If T.O's Rob Ford can lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks or less why does it take me months? Maybe it's because there's not that much to lose. Maybe it's because my body has a comfort zone and sometimes you can only do so much but I will not be defeated!

Today I had a multivitamin, water, 3 large strawberries in 1/2 cup of Harvest Crunch cereal and yogurt.

Workout:
2 sets of 15 reps 12.5 lb curls
2 x 12 reps 10 lb alternating curls
2 x 20 reps 10 lb squats
2 x 15 reps 8 lb shoulder shrugs
2 x 20 reps 115 lb seated leg press
2 x 15 reps 40 lbs leg curls
2 x 15 reps 45 lb leg extensions
2 x 20 reps 75 lb adductor (inner thigh so is it abductor?)
2 x 20 reps 60 lbs abductor (outter thigh so reversed?)
2 x 12 reps 30 lb tricep extensions
30 reverse crunches
20 alternating oblique crunches
stretching!

Cardio: 22 mins. at 5.0 incline, a bit of jogging on treadmill. Average heart rate 142, high was 167.

The gym was very strange today ... I felt almost exposed because they had removed a lot of equipment and were bringing in new stuff. Where did all those people come from? It was busy in there at 9:00am!

After the gym, I had 1/2 scoop of whey protein, 3 strawberries and milk blended. It was great!
Wish me luck.
