sticky day

For  those of you who love the thunder and the rain, you should come visit me. Outside it is pouring and the most spectacular lightening is streaking across the sky. A moment ago there was a clap of thunder so loud that my lukewarm mug of tea rattled on my desk. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people that loves the rain.

Before the rain though, it was really really muggy out. I can proudly tell you, though, that I fought through the thick air on a 20 minute run and a 45 minute bike ride. I count them as my workout for today, which I will now be keeping careful tabs on. I've decided on the Surge Diet, which seemed to be the best option after much deliberation. I think Coco is right, SGD will only ultimately end in failure (again).

I've made myself a pretty chart for it to keep folded in my phone case.

Other than all that it was a pretty good Sunday- I had a nice relaxing bath while watching biggest loser (love that show) and I went swimming in the river with my brother and my dog. The dog smelled awful after, but I had a nice time.

I also had a good day for intake (mostly):
egg whites 100
cheese 20
strawberries 23
cereal 120
2 popsicles 30
veggie stir fry 160
rice 145
chips 88
gummies 70
biking -166
running -90
swimming -93
total: 763-349= 414

I stayed nicely inside the lines on this first day, just around 30 calories under the 800 limit. way to go me.

also- for anyone who has terrible sweet cravings at night, I highly suggest sugar-free popsicles, they're like 15 calories each and a great treat, especially in summer.
