Ok, it was a busy weekend!

Friday:
Attended Good Friday services. They were really short this year and I was out by 1:30 pm. I had time to kill so I walked over to my gym (10 minutes), dropped my bags, and took a walk around the lake (about 1 hour). I ran across the street to the bank. Eventually Brad picked me up and we went to the chiropractor, then to Safeway, then to Cosco (I bought $160 worth of stuff), then walked along the Hayward shoreline for about an hour. We dropped off something at a co-workers house and THEN finally went home and had a late dinner.

I had a new high step count for the day - 25,464 steps, 11.25 miles total! Whew and woohoo!

Saturday:
After church we walked around the neighborhood passing out Easter tracts, doorknob to doorknob. We had 300 tracts, but quite a few people so we made short work of it. I did get in about 45 minutes of walking, though.

My mess up for the day - someone brought donuts and I caved and had 1 1/2 donuts.

Dinner was healthy - steak and veggies, and Brad gave me the leaner cuts.

Sunday:
Went to Easter Sunday services. They let out early so I skipped the brunch they offered and walked to the gym (a 10 minute walk from the church I went to) and managed to get a FULL workout! Woohoo!

I did upper body for an hour with some core work. I went up to 25 pound dumbbells on the Arnold Press, but could only manage 4 reps at that weight. I'll keep at it until I can do 6-8.

For cardio I ran on the treadmill at 5.2-5.8 mph. I ramped it up to 6+ mph during the last couple of minutes, and did a 7 mph sprint for the last 30 seconds. I covered 2.75 miles.

I had my protein and carb snack, and then walked from the train station to work, another 1.5 miles and 30 minutes. FitDay says 450 calories burned.

I was really hungry yesterday, I guess because of how strict I was last week. After church I had all my regular snacks and then ate lunch, too! I ate healthy except for a small serving of leftover rice and lasagna (and the donuts!).

Plan for this week:
Non-workout days - keep my calories under 1300 (excluding wine on Thursday and Friday).
Workout days - keep my calories below 1400. I starved on workout days last week so I'll allow myself a little extra.

I think my loss this week is due to two factors - 1) I really restricted my calories last week, and 2) I behaved better food-wise yesterday - one banana instead of three, no Cheese-It's, and fewer animals cookies and trail mix than usual. The tract distribution also gave me some exercise to burn off those donuts, lol!
