I went the the gym this morning and only pushed myself on the elliptical for 20 minutes.

It wasn't going to be my "workout" for the day, but since it was rainy, I was hoping to be able to use it to wake up and get the day started. Only 200 calories burned. =/

But you know, that's 200 calories I wouldn't have burned staying in bed, right?

I've had a scoop of peanut butter and a bowl and a half of raisin bran for breakfast.

Lunch was a petite baguette, small cup of vegetable and lentil soup (low sodium, vegan and soy free -- WIN) and a turkey club. Not the best with the club, since it was on sour dough and had bacon and basil-spicy mayo, but it did also have fresh lettuce, fresh tomato and REAL turkey (not the slimy deli turkey stuff).

I have class from 5-730, I ate my "large" meal of the day for lunch, hoping that it will tide me over during class and I wont have a huge appetite before going to the gym. I'd hate to go back and try to start this running 5k training on an empty stomach.

Yeah, speaking of --
iTunes had the Couch to 5k program podcasts for free. And you know what I say -- if it's fo' free, it's fo' me!

The first week "track" is 27 minutes. So I'm going to try the first week, see how it goes and then pound it out on the elliptical/stair master for the remainder of the hour workout I INTEND to do tonight.

Two-a-days, I keep saying they have to start again, but I need someone to yell at me and keep me accountable. Especially on rainy days like today.
