Day 39 (cardio)

Workout:
None.

Today, I actually have an excuse ... work ... so I didn't workout. I'm home for about 9 1/2 hours on my work days. When you subtract out the hour I allow for getting ready for work, and the hour for fixing my dinner, and the food I'm taking to work, that leaves 7-7 1/2 hours for sleep. I guess that probably explains my inability to get up an hour earlier to workout.

I do kind of get down on myself for not getting up early. "It's only an hour," is what I tell myself. But, when I think about the fact that I'm barely getting what is considered to be an acceptable amount of sleep as it is, I guess it's understandable, that after working a 12 hour shift, I don't want to have to live on 6 hours (or less) of sleep.

And, bringing good, healthy food in to work with me is more beneficial, I think than working out would be. There's not a lot of good or healthy things at work, and being vegetarian, my options are even slimmer! Starbucks is open until midnight. The cafeteria is open from 12:30-2:30 (my options are a pathetic salad, cheese sandwich, french fries, if I'm lucky, there's an overcooked nasty looking vegetable left over from the daytime). Or, there's the vending machines (cookies, chips, ice cream, or a bean & cheese burrito).

Goals:
  1. Drink 6 bottles of water.
  2. Write down everything I eat.
  3. Eat 5-6 small meals every day.
