I was pretty good on my diet yesterday and had minimal carbs and a good amount of protein. I was suppose to have Met-Rx 4x but I only had 3 since Lisa made me some hand rolls with celery and crab meat instead (no rice). As a snack last night, I ate red peppers and hummus and when I got hungry again, I ate some sugar snap peas. This is my popcorn substitute. Aha.
I woke up and my lower back wasn't as tight as it has been, which was surprising considering my 6.7 mile run yesterday on the treadmill. I got a back workout today with 4 different exercises followed by some ab work. I am bumping up the resistance significantly at least for one set of each exercise for more strength training now that I don't have any big climbing rides in store. It also makes the workout more interesting for me.
For today's lunch ride, I'm hoping for something a little more flat, so maybe we'll ride up to Portola and back. My legs feel pretty good, so I think it should be a good ride.
