What did ya eat and how did ya move today? - Tuesday
Just call me an early bird today. I went to bed at midnight last night and woke up at 5:30. I am hoping I can go to bed earlier otherwise makes for a long day for me. I have already planned my eating for the day b/c of this and I am gonna post it now!
B: Pure Protein Chewy Chocolate Chip Protein Bar (really liking these for that chocolate fix! 190 cals)
L: 2 Pumpkin Protein Pie/Muffins with 1 tbs of 'frosting' and light whip mixed together for topping.
S: Latte of some kind using 8 oz of light vanilla soy milk, decaff and of course SF syrup.
S: Kashi Cereal 3/4 cup with 2 oz of vanilla soy milk, 1/4 cup blueberries thawed from frozen.
D: chicken taco salad - 1 cup romaine, red onion chopped, 2.5 oz chicken chopped, 1 oz low fat mont jack cheese, 1 tbsp of light sour cream and 2 tbsp of black bean salsa.
S: EAS Shake
Totals could be better but not bad.. I just know I have a long day ahead of me as an early bedtime never seems to happen anymore even if I want it to!
Cals: 925, fats 27, carbs 75, protein 108.
I am still feeling a bit run down with the monthly stuff but I need to move today.. so not gonna push myself at the gym today.. I will either do some walking intervals on the treadmill or go for a nice long walk with the dog today.

calories: 1007, carbs: 106, fats: 21, protein: 106
Going to try to hold those numbers down with a lot more tea and water today.
For exercise...6 hours at work followed by two hours shopping. Feeling like I am coming down with a cold still so taking a lot of Airborn and hoping for the best. The last thing I need is a headcold to make me want to roll up into a sluggish ball.
I think I did a lot better today, but there is still a lot of room form improvement.
I had:
B-sausage patty, sl american cheese on wasa cracker and few grapes
s-sf nf latte with atkins protein bar
l-chicken salad with whole wheat crackers, salsa and sf jello
s-sf nf latte
d-taco salad-one taco shell all crumbled up with ground beef, refried beans, a little bit of sour cream, cheese, lettuce and tomato.
For exercise, I walked at a pretty fast pace for about 40 minutes and did some running. I felt so weird to run, I have not done it in ages. I will try to do again on thursday.
Have a great Wednesday!!!!!!!!!
Yes, it was very weird but I was more happy to see that I really could do it and it was not that bad. I am going to keep on trying and coming from me its a big deal. I have always hated it the notion of running but it seems that I am going to start liking it soon.
I am very proud of myself too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
