    <content type="html">I'm going to start packing a gym bag and taking it with me to Nordstrom's so when I get off work I can head straight to the gym. I usually have about four hours between jobs and, let's face it, I usually screw around on the computer for at least one of those hours before I go nap. So now, I will work out and then nap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The workout challenge for this week is three thirty minute cardio sessions and two twenty minute weight sessions. So, my workout schedule will be as follows:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;M: None&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tues: None, date with boy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wed: 30 min treadmill, 20 min weights&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thurs: 30 min elliptical&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friday: None&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saturday: 30 min treadmill, 20 min weights&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday: None&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their eating plan is a little impractical for someone who works as much as I do and has no time to cook. And they want you to stay under 1600 for weight loss, which simply isn't enough food for me on days when I work both jobs. So, My modified SELF challenge will be to stay under 1900 calories on non-workout days and  under 2100 on workout days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm at 920 for today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll have a Blackened Chicken Salad for dinner, which will put me at 1329. A luna bar before work will make 1509 and leave me 400 hundred calories of wiggle room. Which I need at work. Snacking bad!</content>

    <content type="html">Yesterday went okay. I met all my goals, though I probably shouldn't have had garlic bread with my soup at work. What killed an otherwise good day is when I got home, I ate a bunch of leftover pesto pasta. I wasn't hungry and shouldn't have eaten it. Oh well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Todays goals:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. 40oz of water&lt;br /&gt;2. 2 veggie servings&lt;br /&gt;3. 1 fruit serving&lt;br /&gt;4. No boredome eating</content>
