Toni, don't worry about me packing guns around, I'm just taking my license so I can legally go grouse hunting with my dogs, and scare some magpye's away.
So quitting smoking made ill as always for the first few days this year, but I recovered from being miserable and sickly yesterday and thought it was time to start working my lungs out now that they were smoke free.
I don't have my NROL4W yet so I thought I would try the NROL break in plan
Squats
15 - bar (25lb) wu
2/15 -20+bar not too heavy
10 - 20 + bar at this point my leg cramped up and decided it didn't like squatting
lunges
3/10 - bodyweight alternating legs, did less cause my leg was still cramped
rows
3/10/ 15lb - really to light, but need to check what the 2-point row looks like again
pushups
3/15 - girly (I was quite disgusted at myself, cause I used to be able to do tons of guy pushups.
crunches
3/15 - on the floor as my swiss ball was deflated
followed up with 30min walking on the treadmill, to try to restore some flexation to my leg. It eventually warmed up and I stretched, but boy is it stiff today.
Food has been problematic and I need to get a journal to start writting it down, cause otherwise I cave way too easily. The last two days my cottage cheese and oatmeal has sat in the fridge at work cause someone brought out breakfast for us instead, which wouldn't be too horrible if contractors didn't leave us pizza and donuts for lunch. My husband did make a stir fry last night that was fairly healthy, but then he was worrying about having white rice with it, cause at the same time he was cooking he had this show 'the last 10 lbs' on t.v. and they were deploring how horrible white rice is. I didn't think it was that bad, I mean I know its got no fiber or anything its just a carb, but if you want to have a cup of it with your stirfry, why not?
Today, I'm going to eat my heathy lunch and supper I brought to work and not eat a chocolate bar from the case someone left in the kitchen. When I go home tonight, I'm going to set up my new magnetic exercise bike and go for half an hour while I watch Jeopardy. After that I'll hopeful get a bit of time before bed to take some pics and measurements to put up for the challange.
