Bike Riding is Not For Sissies

Yesterday, some of my nurse friends, my hubbs, and I went for a nice bike ride along the C&O canal. It was an awesome day! The weather was perfect and the scenery was beautiful! We did 20 miles in about 2.5 hours.

We might have made better time if my butt did not get so sore from the stupid bike seat. I mean seriously, I was in tears. Finally, my hubbs switched bikes with me. He has a super fancy bike with rear suspension, so each bump feels like gliding over the ocean in comparison.

Other than that downfall, it was a great workout! According to my LiveStrong Daily Plate tracker, I burned over 1000 calories. Woo wooot! And it was fun!

For dinner last night, I made tuna steaks with cilantro, lime, jalapeno, and olive oil. Yummy yummy! For a side I cut up some green and yellow peppers and threw them in a skillet with some spinach and a little olive oil. A dash of romano cheese for a garnish after it was all plated. Pretty low cal, high protein, and low sodium. I washed mine down with a glass of white wine (I could barely finish it because I was a bit dehydrated still).
