Day 21

I'm dreaming of tight abs and no muffin top again. I'm feeling so motivated to work out but I'm so tired at the end of a long day of work...it sucks! And getting up at 5am to work out before work is even more unmotivating. Last year this time, I was working a low stress job and working out every chance I get and I felt GREAT! Running 3 miles then swimming 3500 yards...it was awesome! Now I'm feeling lucky if I even get to work out. I have these little temper tantrums in my mind when I even ponder exercise after a hell'ish day of dealing with kids and working a second job. It's been a real challenge for me, especially when I look at pictures of what I used to look like. Granted my diet is better these days, but I want that muscle tone back!

Food journal for the day:

B'Fast- Orange juice with flax seed oil and granules, whole wheat tortilla with veggie sausage, cheese, and eggs

I wasn't hungry since I had a late b'fast so no lunch.

Dinner- Whole wheat pasta with mozzarella and basil topped with tomato sauce, 1 can Goya coconut water. For dessert I had a piece and a half of blueberry pound cake with about two teaspoons of ice cream

I was feeling pretty guilty about such a non-active weekend so I ended up hopping on the treadmill while watching Celebrity Apprentice and doing almost 3 miles. Ran the first mile, then my hip was feeling pretty sore so I walked a lot. I replenished with another coconut water.
