Exercise: Woke up and did Plyometrics this morning before breakfast - good and bad - I am so hungry when I get up but know that I can't eat too soon to doing Plyo, with my busy day my only choice was to work out on a completely empty stomach. It was ok- I was starving by the end - maybe 1/2 a banana or having had the recovery drink made up to sip on... No handstands, no stretch.
Nutrition:
Breakfast: Something different today: 1 egg and 1 egg white scrambled, w/ a soy sausage patty, wheat english muffin, slice of tomato and an orange
Snack: Apple, Shakeology w/ light vanilla soy milk. (Finished my chocolate bag - gonna miss that)
Lunch: Turkey burger with Almond "cheese", 1/2 whole wheat tortilla, tomato slices, ketchup, container of raspberries.
Light Dinner: Made some comfort food this morning after my workout - 3 cups brown rice mixed with low fat cream of celery, chicken and mushroom soups, 2 chicken breast and baked for about an hour. Used to make that with white rice and full fat soups - it isn't a perfect meal, but a better choice, and YUMMY! I wanted some "comfort food".
Second Dinner: Salmon, veggies and a small side of Caesar salad.
Other: Good news/not so good news. So I really think that the combination of Shakeology and Acupuncture that my sweet tooth is lessening. I had acupuncture today and walked into wardrobe and there were coconut flavored mnms - which are really tasty. I grabbed a small handful of them (about 8) and realized that after about 5 I really didn't need them or want them - sure they tasted good, (and yes I finished them) but then later at our buffet dinner I bypassed the cookies. Are you kidding me??? Cookies are my FAVORITE, but there are none in my belly!! I KNOW I don't feel like cheating when I eat right. When I eat right my body doesn't crave anything. The better I eat the less I want to cheat. My acupuncturist explained that sweet/sugar cravings are a sign of something wrong with your digestive system - so he has been treating me for that as well as my wrist. I really think that it is working. I only makes sense- why would I want something BAD in my belly if I only eat what I should be eating. Amazing.
Wake up: Went to bed at 11 last night, woke up around 6:30am, back to sleep until 7:40 - awesome. Good sleep, woke up and had a FULL day to get things done. I wish I started waking up earlier a LONG time ago!
Beachbody: Will send a couple emails before the day is over. Listened to past conference calls on my ipod while driving - probably listened to a good hour plus calls :)
Ducks: Hired a handyman for tomorrow to take care of some pidly fix it things, moved the washer, fridge and bought the dryer. Got closet doors fixed (thanks B.J.!!) and submitted request to get the heat fixed ASAP. Stupid heat. Had acupuncture for my wrist and managed to squeeze in a bit of grocery shopping.
