Day 16: October's Going to Be Good

It's the first day of a new month, which means renewed energy and motivation. October is going to be my month!

I woke up early and had a fried egg with sauteed vegetables (mushroom, onion, and spinach). I actually only ate half of the vegetables because the spinach tasted really gross to me. Probably just where I'm at in my monthly cycle, but I just couldn't eat it, even though I usually love it. I fried the egg perfectly though, so that was nice. Then I did some strength training to go with all the cardio I'll be doing. I started three different 30-day challenges. I may have bitten off more than I can chew, but I'll try to keep up with them. If it gets to be too much, I'll postpone the squat challenge until next month.

Abs Challenge
15 situps
5 cruches
5 leg raises
10 second plank

Triceps Challenge
5 tricep dips

Squats Challenge
50 squats

For lunch I had a bean "meatball" sandwich and for dinner I had bean "meatballs" and gravy with mashed potatoes and green beans. I really liked the way those bean "meatballs" turned out, but they were definitely drier today than they were when I made them last night. I'd love to have a bunch on hand to throw into meals, but I don't know how to keep them from drying out. I'll have to experiment with that.
