Good morning! I can't do an official weigh-in until tomorrow morning (I've been using the gym scale since my office scale is sort of broken), but I thought I'd check in and re-group.
I had a pretty good weekend- relaxing, got two great cardio workouts in, minimal alcohol consumption. I strayed a little from my planned diet (I got taken out to dinner on Saturday night, and had more carbs than planned on Sunday) but at least on Sunday, my body really needed the extra calories from the 18 mile bike ride that my boyfriend dragged me (almost literally by the end!) along on. But, it was worth it and I slept very, very well last night.
Last week's goals:
Week goals:
-fully recover from Friday's workout trauma: done and done.
-do one outdoor longer run this week without damaging myself: 4 miles total, less than one of walking on Saturday
-Bring my bike out of the basement: went on an 18 mile ride on Sunday even though it was rainy. My body is definitely feeling that today.
-plan dinners: not so much. We ended up going out for pizza on Saturday night because there wasn't anything in the house and we were exhausted. To make up for it, I ordered a side of broccoli so the night wasn't a total wash.
-No alcohol, except for one light beer at Wednesday's red sox game: and two glasses of wine on Friday night...but I did some push-ups to even things out :)
All in all, not a bad week. Unfortunately, my weekend was really busy so I feel as if I'm hitting the ground running and don't really have any time to plan, much less cook, dinners at all this week. I made a delicious crust free broccoli quiche (I added in some ham for extra protein, used 75% fat free cheddar and added a little feta for taste. I also think egg substitute is gross so I used 7 egg whites and two whole eggs instead- worked fine) last night which I plan to eat for breakfast all week long with two slices of turkey bacon. I had some almost three hours ago and am not hungry at all this morning. This recipe is great- low fat, really high in protein, lots of vitamins, minimal carbs, minimal calories, and VEGGIES FOR BREAKFAST!
If any of you have a chance to try it, let me know what you think!
I'll post soon with a weigh-in and goals for the upcoming week.

I just spell-checked it so it should be all set.
If in the future you forget you can always go into "edit posts" and then click "edit" on the entry you forgot to spell check. It will pull the whole thing up and then you can just spell-check it as usual.
