Happy Friday! I'm going to have to be a day behind, so I'll post about Thursday
Cardio: walked a total of 6.61 miles throughout the day
Strength: two sessions of Wendler's 5/3/1 (not ideal, but it's what I had to do to fit my week). it was deload week, so I feel okay with it. 1st session was squats with overhead squats and sumo deadlifts for accessories. 2nd session was bench with DB OHP, seated cable rows, pullups, and dips for accessories.
Food: bulking, but went well over my 2700-calorie goal because my husband didn't like the texture of his ice cream (was too soft) so I ate it...oh well.

Happy weekend! One client this morning then strength training class. Last night we got side swiped by a lady not paying attention to her lane changing. No one got hurt, but now I have to go through the process of dropping off my van and leaving it for a few days to get repaired.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving (if you're in the U.S.).
I continue to fight either the remnants of a cold or some other sinus issue. Had low energy and frustrations with basic breathing Thursday and Friday, so no exercise.
Cardio: 5 mile run. Easy pace. December will be an easy pace kind of month as I prep for starting a true 80/20 plan in January, when I start training for my double half-marathon challenge in March.
Food: not bad. Only overate a little on Thanksgiving (pie!). Friday and Saturday have been on target.0 -

Welcome! Anyone can join in! The whole premise of the thread is to promote people to just be accountable everyday and gives them a chance to have a reference that they can see what they are doing on a day to day basis. Also, I give free advice if anyone needs help with their current program or any questions that may need addressing.PhoenixRisingFromAshes wrote: »I hope its okay to just join in.
