Feeling so good today! Ate well and went to spin class. It was a fantastic class today...the Wed night instructor (Howard) is much better than the Monday night one. I can't even explain why it's better but when you're done you really feel like you accomplished something major! His music got way better this week...he played bohemian rhapsody during our major climb and our little corner of the room started singing ...we were all so motivated. I felt great! I can't believe that less than a month ago I was pining away for spin and just aching to get back into it, and here I am pushing myself harder than ever to get myself re-acclimated to it. So so happy! In a great mood! Must be all those endorphins...I feel so proud :)
Here is what I ate today:
Breakfast:
-1 kashi cranberry walnut breakfast bar
*these don't keep me full. want to use them up fast to I can replace them with better bars!
Lunch:
-Turkey burger on sandwich thin with grilled mushrooms and spinach and red pepper spread.
*This was just ok. I honestly think it would be more enjoyable with a tiny bit of ketchup and a slice of lowfat cheese with some lettuce and tomato on it.
Snack:
-1 trader joe's frozen whole wheat waffle with 1/4c sugar free syrup with blueberries and blackberries
*last trader joe's waffle! I now have kashi whole grain waffles...they are less calories but I'm not sure how they will taste! As for the syrup, I crushed in the berries and heated it in the microwave...smelled scrumptious and tasted just as good!
-1 cup of vanilla unsweetened almond milk
*not feelin it.
Dinner:
- 1 lean chicken breast brushed with 1tbsp olive oil, curry and cayenne pepper and grilled with "thai" peanut butter sauce (aka 1/2tsp peanut butter, 1/2tsp oil & salt) with broccoli and mushrooms.
*This was really good, I think I surprised myself with this one for sure. Gives me hope that I can actually good palatable food!
Snack:
-Raspberry mocha coffee with 1 sugar packet and dollop of fresh whipped cream
*locally brewed from a hometown coffee shop
Water:
-2 bottles
Exercise:
-1 hour-long spin class
Feeling great...I weighed myself this morning, and I'm down another pound. I actually plan on weighing myself again at the end of this week, as I think I was higher today since I kind of stuffed myself this weekend. I want to hydrate a lot this week and workout again fri and sun and then weigh myself monday morning. We'll see how that goes. At this point I was actually ok with only losing 1 additional pound, because as long as those numbers are moving down I'm happy! I am being totally honest with myself this time, and I really am excited that 1 more pound of fat is gone! I think I'm looking a TINY bit better. I am going to take another picture for myself this week and compare it to the 1st picture I took and see if I notice any difference...will keep you all posted on this!
