Day 1 of the Fitness Challenge is coming to a close. It was a very produce filled day. And lacked coffee entirely. Not something in the plan, just wanted to see if I could do it. Good news, I'm still breathing. And I don't think I was much crankier than usual. ;)
I certainly got my produce in today - kicked off the day with a Green Smoothie (spinach, strawberries, raspberries and a banana) and closed it out with Cauliflower Fried Rice. I will be experimenting with the rice - what a perfect substitute for the actual thing! There are oodles of recipes online using it as a base.
I hit the gym this evening. Totally mind over matter, I did not want to go. I wanted to stay home and catch up on Army Wives. But I didn't. 3 gold stars for me!
Anyway, I have been having a fair amount of pain in one of my heels. I had planned to just walk today, but ended up starting the Couch to 5K program and well, I think that was pretty dumb. It felt fabulous in the moment, but a couple of hours later I'm limping. A lot. I have no idea what is wrong with my foot. The pain started when I missed a stair a couple of weeks ago. Thought it was part of the irritated ankle. Alas, it's not improving. And I think I made worse.
Tomorrow's fitness will be shoveling the incoming 12 inches of snow, so I won't be using my foot like I would on a normal gym day. Hoping for improvement. If it doesn't I guess I'll be on the elliptical and in yoga until it improves.
And on that note, I'm off to sleep. Apparently 0 caffeine intake plus exercise has left me feeling tired. I might be on to something here.
