Moment I am proud of: Even though I was super, super tired on Friday (I think I hit a calorie deficit slump), I did manage to drag myself out for a second walk for the day, in the evening with Dean. He hadn't reached his 10,000 steps yet for the day, so I went with him.
Nutritional changes/observations: We used large red lettuce leaves to make our sandwiches this week, instead of bread. It was actually really, really good, and saved about 200 calories!
Another thing I read about and then subsequently tried was eating watermelon after a strenuous workout. It really worked. It rehydrates you and contains more potassium than a banana, and potassium helps ward off muscle cramping.

What hurts: my calves are absolutely barking... I really need to remember to stretch, multiple times a day.
Confessional: I am proud to say I have nothing to confess this week!
Deep thoughts from exercise delirium: The older I get, the more time it takes me to recover from exercise. I really need to be careful and not push myself too hard.
My goal for next week: meet, if not slightly beat my caloric intake. My goal is an avg. of 1,500/day.
