Hi! Today’s workout was great! I keep upping my weights! I used the green band, which is 40 lbs for a lot of the arm exercises. I think I brought it today! I wanna be buff!!!! Just kidding!! I don’t want to be bulky!! I am doing more 12-15 reps which is supposed to give you lean muscle. I feel like I burn more calories with heavier weights and I want to build muscle now while they are still small!!! I have that fat hand under my arm that I would like to see gone!!
I brought it with Ab Ripper too!! I keep doing more and more every time! Today I completed 306 reps!
My diet ………zzzzzzzzzz……….We actually today I made something really tasty for breakfast. I took 3 egg whites, a little chopped onion, a couple squares of 2% cheddar, and 1 little slice of chicken breast, chopped up, and scrambled that all together. It was sooo yummy! It filled me up more than just the eggs, and gave me more protein and a little bit of dairy. A more complete breakfast I think. I also had about 1/2 cup of orange juice along with my recovery drink.
I have to confess something. I used to be a fast food eater. Love McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, KFC, etc. That’s probably why I was fat. And the fact that I only worked out once a week. Anyway, I haven’t eaten anything like that since I started this program and I haven’t had ANY soda! BUT……last night I was going to subway to get a whole wheat 6 inch, and Burger King for my kids. They are young and don’t eat subs. So anyway, I was sooooooo freaken hungry, I got a cheeseburger and ate it in the car on the way home. Then got home and ate my sub!!!!! This was my first MAJOR pit fall with my diet!!!! I’m SORRY!!! I was sooooooooooooo STARVING!!!! It’s my fault, not the programs. I don’t eat the full amount of food that I am supposed to during the day so I am really hungry at dinner. I often skip snacks and 3 egg whites alone doesn’t really cut it for breakfast!
So I put myself on a more strict eating schedule. I will eat every 2 hours. No excuses!!! I have discovered a more filling breakfast with the scramble, and I wont skip my snacks! So I shouldn’t be so hungry at the end of the day.
Tomorrow is Yoga. Can’t wait!
