well.. its my first day back at a morning workout routine.. i just finished a bit later than i wanted but thats ok.
upper body for me today.. chest, shoulders(i did light weight high reps just to be careful)
tris then I polished it off with pushups UGH.. it been too long since i have done those!
it really feels GREAT to have it done. now my goal is to get up EARLY and get cardio done tomorrow.. its my co-op day but I just havent liked the free thursday's.. its like I dont have a free day cause I work all day.. so my free workout day will be sunday.. eats friday night to sat night.
I actually had 6 meal yesterday. After I drank my shake (vanilla protien, strawberry yogurt, and fresh strawberries) an hour earlier than normal by the time i got to bed i was hungry. so I ate some trail mix which is great.. equal protien to carb ratio! .. and a small glass of milk. I slept great! :) yipee. AND I am so happy... so very happy that I went all day with no bread, crackers, chips, or cookies! :) Day one down.. 35 to go!:)
heres some FYI:
How to de-seed a pomegranate (oh they are sooo good!)
and
the texas trail mix i found (its made in Conroe!) but I bought it at HEB:)
any of you guys ever make your own trail mix? I think thats what I need to do for our family. .. probably cheaper:) ..
all for now.. have to go clean and do schoolwork..
our washer over flowed last night so no washing clothes until its fixed.. plus I have a bit of a mess to clean up (not wet.. just ick from under the washer and dryer ugh. ) plus i need to get ready for class tomorrow. :) busy day.
Here is where I will post my eats.. frustrations or lack there of throughout the day.. :
meal #1: oatmeal with peach slices, tbspoon brown sugar
meal #2: serving of trail mix, water (this was after I lifted)
meal #3: salad (bed of lettuce, almonds, sunflower seeds, toms, carrots, and chicken with dressing) tea with stevia.
{today is going good so far.. I had two sessions of "cravings or withdrawals" which ever you want to call them.. but those were both around the time I was to eat.. so I just ate.. and they went away. It seems so far I am missing my 'crunch' factor more than anything.. not having crackers with my salad is just NOT right.. but the bit of almonds on the side really helps. any ideas for a substitute besides almonds?}
time to go clean (again) more after I make it through a few more meals :)
Meal #4:two boiled eggs (still warm) and 1 and 1/2 wasa crackers (total of 14 carbs) tea with stevia
Meal #5: lean hamburger meat with sauce, sautaed mushrooms and onions, 1 small corn on the cob(no butter)
Meal #6: 1.5 peanut butter balls, (mix equal parts honey, wheat germ, peanut butter, vanilla protein powder and refrigerate.. YUMMY!) and 1/2 sering protein shake.

salad...get lots of other yummy salad stuff...olives, peppers, sunflower seeds, artichokes, pickled okra and load it up with those goodies instead of bread-stuff.
I had thought you were leaving off all processed types of foods, but if you can have the trail mix, then you might like chow mein noodles on your salad.
I guess i dont mean AlLLLL processed foods.. I still have salad dressing and mayo.. I ment that as no chips or cookies etc. I am trying to stay totally away from white sugar and white flour..
today i did buy some wasa crackers.. seasameseed and stone ground wheat. tasted like cardboard but they were crunchy :)
PICKED OKRA? what kinda taste buds do you think i have? i am not eight yet! :) hehe..
(never had that.. is it good?)
love pickled okra
I guess I'm already pretty much eating the way you're talkin' then. There is some sprouted bread that's yummy! I know that there are crackers that are gluten free that are made with whole grain brown rice flour and almond flour.
