Rough start

Yesterday was both fun and hard. Fun, because I went swimming with a good friend of mine and I reached my goal of swimming non-stop for an hour, hurray! I read on several websites that while swimming burns a lot of calories and is great for not overworking your joints (and in my case, my back => hernia), you only start burning calories after a good 25 to 30 minute swim. Hence my idea of just doubling that number to get a good workout. It was pretty busy at the pool, as it reopens at night at 19h30 to 22h, when the pool fills up with adults going for a swim when they found a babysitter/after work. That was oretty daunting, since I appear like a joyful secure man, but in the inside and especially in occasions like this I feel more like an insecure deer trying to walking for the first time. Luckily, when in the pool itself, everything was allright again. I was impressed by how time flew by, to be honest, and it was great to see that familiar face of a friend swim by, nodding in approval and mutual appreciation.
After that I must admit I had a hard time when coming home because all the swimming had really taken its toll and I hot 'hungry' again. So I had an apple that I couldnt be bothered to log, even though I should, but I had a surplua of more than 200 calories plus I worked out so it was fine. That's also one of the things I like about using a tracking-app, now, or in this instance last night I knew that I had eaten enough to be healthy, and that was it. I hit my calorie-goal, and all the extra pangs of hunger/munchies is basically my layer of whaleness crying out for some attention. So that gives me the strength to ignore it. Wasn't superduper fun time, but it was bearable.

Anyways, have a great day and see you tonight with my foodlog!

Love,
