Cheat Days

So, I had my second cheat day yesterday. Let me sum it up for you: UGH.

I ate too much. Seriously. I was up 5.4 lbs today! Woaaaaah! It's 1:20 in the afternoon and I'm STILL too full to eat anything! I've been trying to sip a protein shake all morning. Next weekend I need to take it a little easier.

I did, however, eat a healthy breakfast prior to the start of the cheat: 2 eggs, 1 cup spinach and 1 tomato. Unfortunately, I don't think it helped me eat any less.

I woke up today ready to start over. I got my workout in, per 4HB - 50 kettlebell swings and 45 hip thrusts. God knows I'll be sore tomorrow! I'm going some time to stretch today.

The plan today is this: finish my protein shake. Do laundry. Vacuum. Have another protein shake. Saute spinach with onions and tomato and have that with some refried black beans.

Oh, I might have my first real challenge coming up. Looks like I might be taking an impromptu business trip this week to Boston. 4 days away from home, traveling, at a conference - all that. I think I can do it if I bring some protein powder. Salad with chicken are easy. Maybe omelets from the hotel for breakfast. I'll keep you posted on that one. I should know tomorrow.

Here's to not eating so much next Saturday!
