The Birthday weekend is coming to a close. Instead of being diligent about the diet I decided to “reward” myself by eating lots of yummy food and giving up my alcohol fast. It was worth it! Alissa and I did an hour plus of cardio yesterday at the gym. Burned somewhere in the range of 500 or so calories. I started doing an interval workout on the treadmill: 2 minutes at a normal pace and then 2 minutes at a faster pace. I did that for about 35 minutes and it kicked my butt-literally! I could totally feel it in the ass area. I haven’t bowled in probably 10 years or so and I remembered that it also is a good ass workout. My glutes are definitely feeling it today. Tomorrow I’m back on the plan. I’m trying to keep my calories between 1300 and 1400.
Here’s a tip: My trainer told me that the average person needs to have a caloric deficit of 3500 calories in a week to lose 1 pound.
