12/1/09

Oh yeah, its on! I was up at 5 am and working out at the gym by 5:20 am this morning. Now, let me tell you, I was sooooo tired and didn't want to get up, after all I was at the gym until after 10:00 pm last night. But I knew that I would not be able to go tonight - so I forced myself up. I'm glad I did it!

First of all, I had a great workout last night, it lasted 2 hours, I did 60 min on elliptical and 60 min with weights, working my lower body.

This morning was pure cardio - did 45 min on the elliptical.

Tomorrow, I'm planning on another 2 hours at the gym, planning on doing 60 min of cardio and 60 min of weights (working the upper body)

Today's menu:

8:00 am - coffee w/cream

2 boiled eggs & 2 slices of thin bacon (290 cal)

11:00 - protein shake made with skim milk (200 cal)

2:00 - Tuna & broccoli (180 cal)

4:30 - yogurt, banana (160 cal)

6:00 - carrots & hummus (100 cal)

9:00 - Weight watchers snack - (140 cal)

As you can see, I'm eating quite often, just small meals. Trying to blast my matabolism by eating every 2 to 3 hours.

I also retook my measurements last night, and I did not weigh this morning. I put the scales up. I am avoiding the scales until 12/14/09. A two week progress check. I will re-measure and weigh at that time to see how I'm doing.

Okay, I'm off to work..............

You're a work-out machine! Good work! -BG

BG - lol. Well, I just need to stick with it. I need to stay focussed!
