Today was cardio and abs which was split up during the day and the evening. Weather wasn't too bad and walked around the city for about an hour and met up with a freind for sushi at lunch time. Instead of my usual appetizer of tempura shrimp and a nice cold Sapporo beer, I opted for sashimi, side salad, California rolls(w/ brown rice) and a glass of water. Changes/sacrifices like this have become a lot easier these days as it's now becoming a habit. This is what I mean when I talk about changing your nutritional lifestyle. It's about moderating your calorie intake during the week(Sunday to Friday), then  indulge in something that you've been craving all week- which is usually on the weekend (for me it's Saturdays)...Like the KFC and stuffing that I mentioned the other day, I'll be having it on Saturday - unless there's something else that is either equal or better. If however I had a party to go to on the Thursday or Friday and had no choice but to eat/drink that was considered high calorie, then I would reserve that day as my reward meal and then Saturday will eat healthy. It's all about balance and most importantly keeping your eye on the main prize - in my case 6 pack abs.

Anyhow, in the evening, I put in 30 min on the elliptical instead of 40 (since I walked around the city for about an hour today) and completed my ab workout. Tomorrow is weight training - only 40 min. My back is still in pain from my previous weight training and will keep it easy tomorrow.
