Back on Track

Okay, so I didn’t do so great this past week, keeping track of my eating and exercising on here.  But I am going to do better this week.  Promise.

Tip: It’s okay to get off track with your journal, just remember,  keeping a journal of the food you consume and your exercise, will help you to know if you need to make adjustments.

It was a good week for me, for the most part, I was able to stick to my diet well and I exercised every day.  Yesterday I went to level 3 of the 30 day shred and not only did I want to die while I was going through it, my body ached the rest of the day.  I even needed to use a heating pad on my back later on that night.  It’s feeling better this morning though.  I am debating at this point whether or not I should do any strength training today.  I am thinking about doing some yoga in the hopes of stretching my body out a bit.  I think that might be a good idea.  The only problem with it is that it doesn’t burn a whole lot of calories. But it is better than nothing.

So far this morning I’ve gotten a lot done.  Sundays are good days for me because I have the whole day to do stuff around the house, cook, workout, and catch up on bills, etc. I’ve already boiled a bunch of eggs for the week and eaten my breakfast.

Breakfast:

4 boiled egg whites (67 calories)
3 slices of turkey bacon (75 calories)
1 c. of light soy milk (90 calories)

I just put Sawyer down for his mid-morning nap so I think I am going to do some yoga and see how I feel after that.  If I am up to it I may do some cardio or some other type of workout.  I’m really excited about my measurements this morning, lost more inches.

Waist: 2 inches
Thighs: 2 inches each side
Bust: 1.5 inches
Chest: 2 inches
Hips: 1.5 inches
Calves: .5 inch
Biceps: 0 inches

Total body inches lost: 11.5 inches

Total body inches lost to date: 19 inches

I’m not sure why I am not losing in my biceps.  I can feel muscles forming there, just not seeing the adjustment on the measuring tape.  Maybe I’ll work out arms today.
