Okay.. this is starting to freak me out a bit...

After switching to a more salad centric lunch (by that I mean I will opt for the premade salads at work for lunch more so than a burger and fries or a tasty ruben) I noticed they days I have a salad I tend to maintain a decent level of energy during the rest of the afternoon versus stumbling out of work on days I don't. It's odd.. I catch myself driving home and thinking "damn.. I don't feel too bad today!". WTF.. does this mean salads and a bit of chicken in said greens is a good thing for me?

The second oddity is I hit the gym today (the 11ish hour day yesterday killed my desire to do much of anything besides watch Fringe back episodes)... and mounted that damn treadmill again. This time a bit faster pace... so my mile I power walked took about nineteen minutes.. now get this.. I get off it.. right myself from the treadmill-vertigo and feel good... not great but good. wtf on this shit as well. Damn extended cardio is *good* for me?!

So I have decided this year's new exercise is going to be that damn treadmill at the gym. A bit of apprehension when I got on.. a bit of confusion of what buttons to push.. but once I got going it wasn't too bad.. in fact after the first 1/10th of a mile I got over the initial hump and into a decent groove... I opted to power walk this one.. 22 minutes for a mile. Not a bad start.... it's has to being somewhere. The only issue would be when I got off it felt lie my body was still moving though I was standing still. Some sort of displacement dealio. It wore off after I got a drink of water and walked to Bubbie.

After I get my groove with this power walking it will be time to kick the pace up.
