Accountability - Tuesday
Happy Tuesday! Not a bad day. Working hard instead of hardly working so at least I feel like I've accomplished something. I did my exercises this morning but my shoulder was hurting. I think I slept on it wrong. I'll make sure and work it hard tonight to make up for slacking on it this morning..

10:30 am 1/2 my regular weekend egg burrito

I didn't even eat the second lunch I packed..busy afternoon..I did my exercises before dinner this evening. I think my shoulder is getting better. It seems to be getting more movement. When the physical therapist sees me Thursday..I'm sure hoping she agrees..I think I did alright.

I'm having an 'oral fixation' issue the later afternoon to late evening. I'm not hungry, but I want to chew on something. Have any of you had this problem and what do you use/do to get over it without adding food/calories?
Thanks!

A soggy cold windy day here in NorCal it was! I think that has contributed to my blue mood as of late... maybe a little bit... But i felt better this afternoon. I still didnt really eat much during the day - i felt like i had to force or remind myself to "eat" something. Thank GOD its an off friday week!
I feel good about my eat & my exercise today.
My eats:
Breakfast -
12oz coffee
12oz tea
8oz protein shake
Snack -
12oz tea
9.6oz projoe protein coffee drink
Lunch -
1c wild mushroom bisque (fancy cream of mushroom, which actually wasnt that bad...)
Snack -
LF cheese stick
3 slices smoked turkey
1oz tuna w/ 2 crackers
2nd Snack -
8oz protein shake
Dinner -
Tacos (same as last night... i should have had the chicken soup & saved the cals but i figured i had the room)
Totals (BAMB BBY!!!):
Cals - 1186
Carbs - 67
Protein - 133
Fat - 38
Exercise:
Week 2 of the 200situps program
today I did 65 squats, 12 bench pushups & 60 dips in my cube @ work! I love that I just figured out HOW I can do my exercises here.
squats (set 2 & 3 really hurt...were difficult to complete)
i tried a variation of the "Bench" push up. omg this is SO HARD! I could BARELY make it to 3 sets of 3. I thought it would be easier than doing "Knee" push ups on on the floor (since i really have an issue about being on the floor). Although the Bench push ups are more difficult, i feel like im doing them in better form than when i do the knee push ups on the floor.
TBD crunches
last night I bought one of those huge balls for my crunches. Blowing it up tonight :)
