This week I did two workouts per sport, which is actually what my training plan calls for. This is a great achievement to me, considering I have dreaded the swim workouts until now.
That said, I did not do an 8 mile run this week as my legs felt real heavy during each of the 4 milers I did. I hope that with some rest, I will be able to pull a 9-miler next week.
Now, I feel great and am looking forward to this new month, and a new beginning to my diet (induction stage) of the low carb-style. This means less than 20 grams of carbohydrates per day for 10 days.
My weight was in a balance between 194 and 198, but that’s fine as long as I don’t hit 200 lbs again, I have until June to get to 185 Lbs. I have handled my diet real well, I even allowed me one high-carb dinner at a Puerto Rican restaurant on Saturday evening, but more importantly I enjoyed a real nice day of cycling around the park and dining with the family and friends – losing weight and working out is important, but enjoying life is a lot more important.
Another reason I feel so great this week is because I achieved and exceeded my work goals for February and got a good head start on March, allowing me to relax somewhat. All the sacrifices early on the month, paid off. I have to find a way to do more of this in a balanced way.
