So yesterday was a rest-day.  Today I'm not so lucky.  I tried the gym this morning.  I had no juice at all.  I still went to the gym, but after 20 minutes I left.  It was about 125 Calories, and I was totally unsatisfied.  I thought that I would be able to get either to the Bally's or to the gym in Arlington Heights.  I was pretty disheartened after the poor showing at the gym, but I went to the Centennial Club Gym in Arlington Heights around 1, because Tom was going to be there, and I figured I wouldn't be able to cheat too bad if he was there.

Once I got on the treadmill  . . . nothing.  I was totally zapped.  I could have just as easily gone to bed, as done a workout.  But I stayed.  I ended up getting about 600 Cal - I had to bounce from treadmill to lifting to stretching to treadmill, but at the end of the day - I did about 700 Calories.

Now, I still wish I had more energy.  I have not been sleeping well and I really just need a day or two to sleep in and get my 8 hours (going to bed early doesnt work for this insomniac).  But, 700 Calories in the bank is pretty good, regardless of how peppy I am.

Meal #1
Bagel w/ light cream cheese - 375
Coffee with sugar - 50
Total - 425

Meal #2
Jimmy John's #12 - no cheese, no mayo, extra cucumbers, extra sprouts - 425
Total - 425

Dunkin Donuts wake up wrap - 175
1/2 can of sierra mist - 70
Total - 245

I'm already at 1095 calories.  Even if I have a 405 Calorie dinner, I'm still on the high-end for me today @1500.  I better have LOTS of veggies tonight!  Carbs are the devil today by the way, the bagel this morning was not even that good.   : (
