Week 32 was spent living a relaxed version of my healthier lifestyle. I was still in the gym 3 times this week and did get in 9 miles of cardio but did not blog, keep offical records, or report weigh in. I did, however, calculate daily calories on scraps of paper, try to stay true to my personal schedule, and focus on healthier living. My eating was not strict, but it also wasn’t entirely reckless. I did not jog (the ankle is still giving me trouble) but walked quite a bit. I have gone back to wearing an ankle brace for some exercises. I had my final session with my trainer last week and he has designed a four day per week gym plan that I will begin implementing in week 33.
