Sick day.

I'm at home sick today. Pretty sure I don't have the flu, but definitely got a head cold in the works. Not sure what to eat yet.

FOOD:

breakfast:
oatmeal w/ protein powder- 3
pomegranate arils- 1

snack:
apple- 1

lunch:
l.c. wrap- 1
broccoli slaw- 0
peppers- 0
laughing cow wedge- 1
2 c. high fiber soup- 3

snack:
boca chicken patty- 3

dinner:
salmon w/ spinach- 3
mashed butternut squash- 2

post-dinner:
frozen yogurt- 2
vitatop- 1
PB2- 1

total points used: 22/22
activity points: 35 min cycling w/ handweights- 3.5
WAPs: -13/35 remaining

EXERCISE:

Not sure if this will happen today. I still have a sore throat going on and I HATE working out with a sore throat. I'm not too achy to work out, but I am just tired overall. I might just watch my food like a hawk and take things easy on the workout front. We'll see.

Sore throat got better, so I rode my stationary bike while also doing some shoulder presses & bicep curls with some hand weights. I actually feel a little bit better. I was starting to get that "OMG, I feel useless because I haven't exercised" feeling, which was putting me in a bitchy mood.

The routine itself was actually a little more intense than I thought it would be. Adding the presses and curls while pumping my legs really got my heart rate up. Nice to know there's another decent cardio routine I can do at home when I don't feel like going to the gym or doing a DVD.

I buy individually wrapped pre-packaged ones and go off the nutritional info on the label: http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/nutrition-calories/food/northern-chef/pacific-salmon-fillet/
