Day 4 Project Me

So yesterday was a good day. I got in a teriffic workout, I mean my thighs are still yelling at me today I did my cardio and then did about a million lunges (okay not really a million but about 30 each side and then band exercises too)..

Oh and by the way, I'm on a quest to find some type of protien shake that I actually can stand. I am trying GNC's total lean right now and if i dont put it in something i tend to gag when I drink it.

Day 3 of Project Me

Yesterday was a weird day..

I did pretty good with my food and exercise but I was just feeling a little bit off. I think part of it is that I am trying to cut out Caffiene. I decided that I am not going to deny myself stuff that I want. If I want a coke, or a candy bar, I'm going to have it. Then Im going to move on, Im not going to go over board on it though.

I got in a good 3 miles of cardio and then did upper body yesterday. My arms and chest are actually a little sore this morning.

Here is what I ate yesterday

Breakfast
WW Choc Smoothie, Strawberry Oatmeal and ater,
Snack
Carrot Sticks
Water
Lunch
WW Smart Ones and Yogurt

Worked out from 4:30 to 6:00

Dinner
Grilled Pork Chops
Glass of Milk

Day 2 of Project Me

Yesterday was a pretty good day. Work wise I new I was getting closer to not being on call so that helped me get through the day.

I took a new class at the Y called Body Vibe and it was okay, I'll go back next week and see if I remember any of it. :)

Emma got to play with her girlfriends in the apartment last night so she was in heaven. After that we cuddled in the recliner and both ended up falling asleep. It was nice and relaxing, just what I needed after this week so far.

I am going to be working from home for the next few days because I don't have daycare, so I'm really trying to make sure I think of everything I'm going to need so I dont have to head in to the office for anything. I really enjoy the fact that my job is flexible like that so I dont have to take vacation time off just because I dont have daycare.

Yesterday I had Oatmeal and a scoop of protein powder (not sure if i like it yet) and yogurt for breakfast, Strawberries for a snack, a WW Smart Ones with a Protein Shake for lunch, green peppers for snack (oh yeah and I also had a small bag of M&M's) I did my 25 mins of cardio on the elliptical before class and then then class after. I had a fried Egg sandwich, a pickle and some sugar free jello for dinner before passing out!!!!

Project Me - Day 1

So I have decided to kick it...I want to lose 50 pounds, and I was/am struggling with how, I've tried weight watchers and I'm totally bored with it. So I called up my old personal trainer and I'm back on the kick and want to work it out.

I decided that the only way I can keep myself true is to document every day what I eat, and my physical activity.

So today for breakfast I had Oatmeal, Yogurt, and a WW Smoothie, I had clemintines for a snack, for lunch I had a Healthy Choice meal with a yogurt, and afternoon snack I had green peppers, for dinner I had 1 1/2 chicken breast and some fat free jello.

I worked out tonight for an hour and I did the bike, arm cycle thingy, and got in 10 miles and man did it suck, I was doing this target heart rate thing and so it was going from level 10 to level 30, my legs felt like jello afterwards.

I drank about 6 bottles of water 22 oz each.

I am ready to start tomorrow and I look forward to hearing from my trainer on some food choices and stuff.
