Nutrition wise, the weekends are the hardest. I don't have the discipline of a set schedule at work, and I have my freakishly high metabolism husband wanting to eat pizza and Mexican. Plus, I really, really, really don't want to cook.
So I'm going to make some allowances on the weekend. We can eat out, but it'll still be high-protein, low-carb. And I'm not counting it as a "cheat meal." (Cheat meals involve copious amounts of sugar, fat, and other processed goodness, preferably of the starchy McDonald's or Original House of Pancakes variety). Tonight, I'll grab some Indian food and skip the basmati rice.
Plus, I earned it today. I beat myself up going to a 9 am olympic lifting class followed by a personal training session with Will that lasted ninety minutes. So basically I worked out for two and a half hours, and I feel it everywhere, hence the post's title. I need to remember I'm not in my 20s anymore. When Will had me do sprints at the end of our training session, I wanted to die.
Back-to-back workouts won't work for me. And I need consistency. So I'm going to establish a regular schedule with olympic lifting on Monday nights, CrossFit twice a week, training with Will on Saturday, filling out the week with lunchtime workouts. Maybe I'll even get to a Saturday yoga class once in awhile.
The weekends are the hardest for sure. like you, I eat out of boredom since I sit at a desk all day. The weekends get busy and I lose track of time and eating. This week I'm going to try and make a little extra food to last thru the weekend. That way I have something I can eat real quick and not have to cook anything.
