Week 3: Day 1: Workout 2

2:00:11, 22.83 miles , 1211 kcal

I was down and came back. I toed the mark. I'm no slacker. I've burned 2400kcal today alone and still held 11.4MPH for this second session. I wonder how I will feel tomorrow and what my weigh-in will say.

I learned this weekend that rice is both a friend and an enemy. While it swells up and makes you feel more full, it also holds onto the water it takes up and makes you feel bloated later on. Still, it's sure to be a good food for when I've hit my target weight.

I've reached a bit of a milestone. Since I play games during my workouts to keep my from getting bored, I need to keep new stock. Saints Row 2 on the 360 got me through week 1 and most of week 2. Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest got me through today and will work for part of tomorrow for sure. I need a meatier game that I've never finished in order to keep things interesting. So I bought Metroid on my Wii. I played this back when I was a kid and almost every retro gamer knows the JUSTIN BAILEY code by heart. I seem to recall encountering one Metroid, but that was it. I'm going to play the living hell out of this game and move up to Super Metroid next.
