Breakfast yesterday consisted of an omelette made from two egg whites, a bowl of daliya, and some lassi. Then we headed out to the mall, where two hours of standing/walking (and some trying out of clothes) must've burned some calories too :). Came back to eat a not-so-healthy lunch ('cos there was a lot of aloo and some white rice). Then there was tea in the evening with one parle-g and one mathri. But after that I fell asleep (although the plan really was to work out). Woke up very late, had dinner (2 rotis, lauki, and nutrenuggets), then went back to bed. Yes, fail again.
Tried to experiment with this morning's walk a little by sprinting towards the end. Then realized I was one round short! So walked half and jogged half. It seemed plenty to bring up the heart rate, especially in the heat (after the jog I felt that my face was burning). Finished a 500-round of kapalbhati, along with the usual neck/shoulder stretches.
Came back home, had tea, then did yoga for almost an hour. It felt good to do all the exercises I could remember - the body felt active and energized. Ended with 5-mins of anulom-vilom.
Breakfast was quite a sight - the table was laid with what one usually sees in health ads :). Boxes of oat bran and corn flakes, non-fat milk, boiled egg-whites, wheat bread with tomato/cucumber sandwiches, and bowls of raisins, walnuts, and almonds. I took what I thought was my normal intake, but found it impossible to finish! I think the whole grains were activating the leptin. Phew.
Hopefully this day will be a success.
