Yay for Labor Day

I forgot to turn off my alarm for work this morning so I rolled over, turned it off, and at the same time decided to turn off the 4:45 alarm for my BBF workout...I just did not want to get up yet. Instead I decided to go with a natrual wake up, my body woke up at 7:39 this morning and so I very happily got out of bed and began to meander around. I gathered up all my cycling gear, ready to hit the road.

Well I got to the end of the block and discovered that my tires were flat...After putting the bike up I debated on doing an inside work out or going for a walk. Seeing as how it is still very nice outside, which is a rare blessing, I changed shirts and hit the pavement.

It was a good walk, I now know that I am only about 1 minute shy of a 15 minute mile, that's something I would like to work on. I walked 2.05 miles in 34:14 minutes, averaging 3.6 mph and burning 254 calories [go Runkeeper].

I also tried a new recipe for breakfast: Protein Pancakes

Now I'll honestly say they are not very tasty by themselves, but I topped them with a tablespoon of Peanut butter divided between the two and Light agave nectar syrup and 1/2 a banana sliced.

So that came out to a breakfast of 325 calories and 20.8g of Protien! so that should keep me going for awhile :)

Well even though today is a holiday, it is still Weigh Day, and here are the results:

196.8lbs as compared with last Monday's 198.8 lbs ~ So that's 2 whole pounds down!

Something I have decided - I am not going to get on the scale between Mondays, my weigth fluctuates too much during the week and it can be depressing, but looking at it on a weekly basis is much more uplifting.

Happy Labor Day everyone!
