Ready! Sweat! Go!: Day 31

Wow! 31 days just flew by.  I guess this challenge is what it took for me to actually get off the couch and exercise EVERYDAY.  And I feel great.  My days feel more productive.  And I'm in the middle of my third book after 4 weeks.  That's crazy too.  I usually read three books a year.  So...here's to healthy living and literacy!

Breakfast aka driving to gym: 1 Cliff bar
Lunch: Broadway Pizza - buffet: Salad, Cottage Cheese; Pizza; Spaghetti; Cinnamon Bread
Pre-work dinner: Lasanga; Herb Roll; Chocolate Milk
Post-work dinner: Chicken Penne Pasta

Mid-morning workout at the Andover YMCA

P.S.  Am I the only one who loves the feeling of sitting still in the car and feeling the nerve ending fire and twitch in the thighs after a long workout?
