First day back to the work week after the holiday. I REALLY didn’t feel like doing a lot and my energy was so low. I just did a bunch of random cardio exercises enough to meet my calories burned count. I started off with 20 minutes on the elliptical but it didn’t really get my heart rate up so I switched to the treadmill. I thought I would warm up my muscles by walking for twenty minutes first and then running for two miles. It was not fun but I managed it. Ugh, do not like these days.
As you may have notice, I tend to have the same breakfast over and over again. Recently it has been a bowl of oats with a mixture of rolled oats, wheat bran, flax seed, blueberries, banana, kefir and peanut butter. I find that it gives me enough energy for my workout and honestly, it tastes so delicious to me. Today the run started off very sluggishly, but after about 10 minutes I started feeling more comfortable. Today was a public holiday so we just lazed around the house and just relaxed. Dinner was spice rubbed chicken legs and baked veggies. It was extra delicious while watching the latest episode of Game of Thrones!
Day 4 occurred in two parts. I anticipated that we’d be outside all day that we would eat a few meals outside. To compensate I decided to hit up the apartment gym and the normal gym. Today is the start of June so I shelled out 150HK for the monthly pass. I woke up at a hideous hour of 7:00 before P woke up.
Part 2 occurred when p was tutoring. I originally thought I wouldn’t have the energy to run again and was set on just doing the elliptical and watching some shows, but I surprised myself and managed to crank out more mileage on the treadmill.
We had a lovely lunch with chicken, cheese and veggies for me and then at night, some rice dumplings for the upcoming dragon boat festival.
