Almost

Today was the closest that I've come to missing a workout. We've got a trainer in from out of town for work so the entire day was dedicated to intensive curriculum work. The busy day was followed by a once over of the scores of e-mails that came in over the day and then on to dinner. By the time dinner was over, I had 10 minutes to make it to the gym. With a full stomach and an aching head, I briefly pondered what missing just once would mean. Luckily, I didn't have much time to rationalize and I'm in the routine now so I was off and running in short order. Here's how the day ended up:
Food- With company in town, I was again tempted by various unhealthy options at restaurants. Fortunately, I was able to find greens, fresh beans, and baked chicken at lunch and a tasty fish with cauliflower at dinner. I also picked up some pure whey protein for shakes at snacks. This is one more way to integrate appropriate proteins between meals. I did plenty of research before deciding to go with a supplement but 100% whey is not too far out there. All of the trainers and docs have advised to avoid all of the other crazy stuff on the market.
Workout- Workout on a full stomach is tough. My Tues./Thurs. trainer worked me on an intensive circuit for lower body and core. I was whipped afterward but glad that I hadn't shrugged off the workout in the parking lot just an hour earlier.
Cardio- As my stomach was feeling iffy and my head hurting a bit, I opted for 15 minutes on the elliptical which added up to just over a mile. I averaged just over 130 on heart rate and burned about 200 calories. I'm feeling pretty tired and hoping for good rest tonight.
