I’m feeling a bit retro today. This is from a 1964 cover. There are relatives in Baddeck I want to visit.
Mutant Diet Phase 6 Day 44
Good grief. It’s taking everything I’ve got not to throw in the towel. Train wreck diet-wise. Started at 2 PM. The small amount of chocolate almonds would have been OK except that I was delayed at work. I forced myself to walk home, which honestly felt like walking through mud.
Then I realized I did not have enough time to even heat something up before going to a meeting at my son’s school. I wasn’t hungry at that time. But by 7:30 PM, I was hungry and I took my daughter to the local bagel place, where we met my equally hungry wife and son. This wheat fest led to the tanking of the evening.
Wine helped with the muscle pain. I have concluded that workouts make no sense. Late last week, I dragged myself to the gym and wondered if I’d even get up the stairs to the locker room. Next thing I know I did 98% of my workout homework. Yesterday, I felt like I had normal energy and by the time I hit the last third of the workout, I was a mess. I gave the workout a 75%.
I therefore conclude that you can’t give up on a workout until you’ve gone to the gym and changed. If you still are a mess, then you can quit.
