First day

Okay, I finally got down to brass tacks yesterday.  I did weights, upper body.  Boy I smoked my arms!!  After I was done, my arms shook for at least 10 minutes!!  Holy cow, today they are sore but I'll live.

Today I go to the gym and do cardio for 15-20 minutes.  I need to call Bill Phillips (Body for Life) website and see what I do about lower body weights.  I had surgery on my knee a year ago but the doctor says I'm not allowed to kneel, crawl, stoop or squat and I can't carry, push or pull anything over 20 pounds, so I think I'm kind of screwed.  I thought if I called them they could give me some advice or tell me to talk to my doctor which in this case is a Workman's comp doctor.  We'll see..

Anyway...here's what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast: 1/2 cup oatmeal
                 3/4 cup milk
                 1 bagel with some butter

Mid Morning Snack:  2 pieces of string cheese

Lunch: some left over roast (which wasn't much)
           some left over potatoes and carrots

No Mid afternoon snack

Dinner: 1 turkey burger
            2 pieces of wheat bread
            salad
            low fat ranch dressing

Evening snack:  small bag of m&m's - blew it there...

Evenings are hard for me but a small bag of m&m's isn't horrible

I am excited (what a minute ..... did I just say excited?!?!?!) to get to the gym today.  I want to have buff arms and shoulders like my husband.  That man looks good....

Okay that's it for today.  Will tell you tomorrow how today goes.
