Day 29...four weeks in

2/16/2012

3 Comments

 
I learned something today. If I want to be at my goal weight, I cannot eat like I did last week. I GAINED 1.2lb during week 4. I now have a better idea of what it will take to get to my goal weight and to stay there. I am getting my diet dialed in this week. It takes time to understand what "too much" looks and feels like. Also, skipping workouts, for whatever reason, is going to greatly impact my progress. (Not to mention my mental health). Being injured sucks the big fat one. I'm still nursing this back/rib thing.

5am... smoothie with a banana, strawberries, scoop of Vega Whole Food Optimizer; cup of coffee with Silk creamer
9am... an apple
10am... bowl of leftovers from last night: Rice-A-Roni Spanish rice, refried beans, tomatoes, greens, peppers, cilantro (I forgot to mention that before--it really makes it "pop"), salsa and hot sauce
10:45am... square of dark chocolate
1:45... a mandarin orange
3:30pm... a salad with mixed greens, peas, edamame, tomatoes and Annie's Lite Gingerly dressing
7pm... a "near beer" (Michelob Ultra) and some cous cous with stir fry vegetables (from the frozen foods section)

Exercise...
5:30am: 45-min full-body group session

Okay, I think you fooled me...you drank an actual Michelob Ultra? I thought you meant a non-alcoholic beer. And remember....I started drinking micros after reading Skinny Bitch. Here's my challenge to you (starting after next week), no beer for the remainder of our 6 weeks (or other alcohol).
