Did I make it for today?? I did cheat and have a few M&Ms but what the hell?? I have my period!!

Workout: Treadmill and elliptical--50 minutes
Sweat factor*: 4

What can I say? I had a lame workout today. But my freaking legs hurt man. And I didn't have time in all honesty. Work, study, eat, sleep, etc.

So a girl has an off day. BFD.

*What is sweat factor you ask? Basically RPE. I gauge my workout on how hard it is 1-10. Like for instance if I did 75 minutes of walking at 2.0% incline, it would be a 2. If I did 75 minutes of hardcore running, it would be a 10. I want to make sure I am not doing woosie workouts. And hey, don't take offense if you walk 75 minutes at 2% incline. What is woosie for me, maybe hard for someone else, and I totally understand that for sure.

I have decided...........

I have decided to make a whole other page for posting daily my workouts and food intake. Why you ask? Because I want a log of everything. I am having some frustrations regarding amount of workout + good eating NOT EQUALING WEIGHT LOSS!!

I have been doing soooo much and I am just too damn frustrated. Therefore, I will keep this log. For one month and if I don't lose a freaking pound, I don't know what I will do.
