Day 6

tracyandcal@gmail.com's picture

Almost finished the first week.
-Got all my workouts in (still figuring out the weights that I should be doing to achieve failure)
-commuted to work twice (20miles of biking)
-did a number of power walks
-waged war against the damn blackberry bushes (we've called a truce)
-did the online ab class (oww)
-ran around a field for an hour or so, learning to manage a kite with a harness.
-up to 70 ultra slow crunches (before my neck gives out)

Nutrition wise, I haven't really hit the suggested rates.
seem to be around 1400 calories/day. (attached my breakdown for low carb day today). Going to get some protein mixes tomorrow to help with that part at least. I just don't see how its possible to hit 200 without them.

I fit!

I fit into my bridesmaid dress for my sister's wedding! I was so worried I wasn't going to. Now for the ironic part: I can't lose any weight until the wedding (no time for major alterations).

Did my interval run this morning and will do some cardio dance later this evening.

As for what I ate:
Breakfast: 1/2 cup egg whites, 1/2 grapefruit, 1 slice reduce calorie whole wheat bread with 1/2 tbsp sugar-free jelly, and 1/2 cup skim milk
Snack: apple
Lunch: 2 slices reduced fat whole wheat bread, 1.5 turkey slices, mustard, and a hard boiled egg
Snack: 2 smart dogs (tofu hot dogs) on lettuce

Mega Sore!

Those weekend workouts sure kicked my butt!
the dozen reps w/ the 105lb dumbbells really did a number on my traps. mega-sore - good stuff! :)
I've been eating fairly clean lately with lots of chicken and have still been making the spinach salads w/ a variety of vegetables and soy nuts mixed in. Milk, Special K w/ bran cereal, yogurt, cottage cheese, fat free cheese, oven roasted turkey, ff mayo, 35 calorie/high fiber whole wheat bread and some kind of whole wheat, low fat/high fiber toaster waffles have been making up the gist of my eating - I guess a smattering of fruit also such as bananas and grapes as of late.

Hello :)

Where in the world have I been?! :P

Today was a good day. I got my workout in. Just the cardio though. I didn't have time to do weights, so I'm going to do them after this blog. My Dad and I went to the movies and instead of sneaking in candies, I snuck in a turkey sandwich and cottage cheese, and a water bottle, haha. Boys?...I suggest you invest in a man purse for times like these. :)

Today's Menu:
B- Oatmeal & Lf Cottage Cheese w/ side of Scrambles Eggs (1whole/2whites) [11am]
L- Turkey Sandwhich (100% whole wheat) & Lf Cottage Cheese [2pm]
W- Cardio
D- Tuna Salad, I mixed in Red Bell Pepper, Mustard, Flax seed(1tbsp), two flouretts of broccoli and some salsa [6pm]
