Day 8: Rebound

     So we begin Week 2. Although I wasn't able to do the Yoga Fix yesterday, I decided to skip over it and just do Total Body Cardio Fix as scheduled.

     Changed up breakfast a little: 1 slice of Genesis Multigrain bread (yellow) with a teaspoon of peanut butter. I filled my containers for the day while munching on breakfast: Green~ sweet pepper slices, snap peas, cucumbers; Purple~ mango, pineapple. The rest of the containers were on-demand throughout the day: Red~ curry chicken(with diced mango and grapes), beef patty (count as 2); Yellow~ potato roll; Blue~ thin-sliced gouda; Orange~ skipped - I figure I probably had something that would count there anyway.

     It's time for Total Body Cardio Fix. This was the workout that nearly killed me last week. I think I'll try it with my 1 lb weights :-) . I briefly considered the 2-pounders, but didn't want to regret it - I've come so far, I didn't need another setback. I have to say, it wasn't seemingly interminable like last week. I could breathe afterward. I can walk. I can climb up and down stairs. I get the light housework done without issue. I do find myself stretching my upper thighs, glutes and quads a lot, though. It feels soooo good. Sounds like a great reason to hop in the pool!

     After an hour in the sun, I fill my water bottle for a third time (64 oz down and on my way to 96!). DBF gets home around 4:30 and hasn't eaten all day. This triggers a non-stop binge that I watch in dismay. He's my "Mr. Healthy" and I'm trying not to judge, but he's consuming nothing but crap after crap after crap. I just watch in wonder while I sip my wine.
