Walking to places I need to go to
The last couple of days my exercise has been of the useful variety. On Friday I walked to the WISH office near Old Street and back home via a drop-off near Smithfields Market. Saturday was a hide from the world day, and my ankles swelled up because of a combination of my obesity, the hot weather, and the lack of exercise that day. They didn't swell up as much as they used to when I was 20 stone though, so that's a good thing really.
Today:
My food has been *crap* today. I don't usually talk about it in in this journal. Have a cut.
5 thin pancakes (fried with spray-n-fry) with fresh strawberries/apricots/bananas and lots of sugar for brunch
Frappuccino (skimmed milk, dark chocolate, ice, cherry syrup)
Big plate of steak and chips with salad
'Natural' cola (Fentimans Curiousity Cola)
Woah. I think I might keep a food diary for a few days. Saturday's intake was even worse. 6 pancakes, box of chocolates, two cream donuts, ready meal, big pastie, strawberries. Jeez.
Plan to have good breakfast, good take-out lunch (depending on where I am), good cooked dinner. Rice and dal maybe? Mmm, dal. Plenty of fruit and veg. Will write it down. Bah.
Today:
- Weight-lifting at home. Insufficient warm-up followed by bent row, standing flyes, shoulder press, bicep curls, standing tricep extensions, weighted calf raises and weighted squats.
- Bit of a run to/along the canal. Didn't go far because it was really horribly sunny and hot. Ran up Pancras Road, Camley Street, Regent's Canal to Royal College Street, where I collapsed in a heap for 5 minutes. Then ran down Royal College Street, and Midland Road to St Pancras Station where I had a delicious dark cherry mocha frappuccino.
- walked to The Pembury in Hackney via the Regetnt's Canal (6 miles) and back home the direct route (4 miles).
