So after the super bowl Sunday I took Monday off for my regular off day for working out, which my body needed.  Tuesday I was unable to hit the Y had car issues plus had some running around with the kids.  I felt a little down on myself but Wed came and I pushed myself a little harder in the gym.  Yesterday was a good day all around so back on schedule with everything.  I find that working out is not my main issue, it is the food intake.  To be honest I set a 1300 level calorie intake per day, that is not the issue.  What I have trouble with is that I eat mainly wrong foods to met that level.  This tends to be ok for the calorie counts, I eat just smaller portions of bad foods.  Though now I am concerned about  fat, sodium and cholesterol intake, the counts are way too high.  So I have been trying to find better recipes to use and my wife turned me on to this "Hungry Girl" lady.  We have been trying some recipes and tricks she gives out and so far it is pretty good.  Tonight is Mexican night so I am going to have a light lunch, work out hard and enjoy some chips, salsa, and fajitas.

Till next time
