Day 4 of The Plan...Super excited about my supplements arriving yesterday! When I got home last night after my workout I thought it would be a perfect time for me to try the whey protein so I whipped it up with some almond milk and ice. I added a wee bit of a flavored low carb/low fat/low cal/low sugar yogurt and threw in some flax seed. It was delicious! I never know if I can trust the protein shakes because I have tried a few in the past and they seem to Rock my stomach. And when I say Rock...I mean, bloated, gassy, pain... it is nothing pleasant of the sort! And once again...my stomach was ROCKED. Therefore, I didn't sleep well last night and was mad at myself for thinking this one would be any different! What is it?! I am not lactose intolerant! Does anyone know what it could be? Or an alternative? I know that I cannot get the results that I want without supplements. I opened the bottle of the fat burner and the pills are the size of a house. (Instant gag)... this is going to be so fun. I will wait to take the pills when I have a day off to see how I will react. Apparently, I have a super sensitive stomach.Yay Me!
Today I was more hungry than normal which I typically always am the day after a good, hard, sweatin workout..
What I Ate Today:
Breakfast:
4 egg whites scrambled with a tad of onion and spinach/spiced it up with some tapatio hot sauce.
1 slice Ezekiel Bread (toasted) w/a tad of almond butter and sugar free jelly. (teeny tiny amount) just for a bit of flavor.
Coffee of course...ugh...working on this one.
Snack: Pumpkin protein bars
Iced Green Tea (Unsweetened)
Lunch: The hubs was back in town so he picked me up and we went to lunch at Chipotle.
Salad (no dressing)- Little black beans, peppers, chicken & pico.
I love Chipotle. The sodium is high on the chicken so I was sure to up my gallon of water another 8oz. The salad ends up being approx: 360 cals (I choose to take some away because I get very little black beans added to it)
I was able to give myself props for passing up on their delicious salty lime chips and the guacamole that is the best I have ever had! :)
Snack/Prior to the gym:
2 Turkey Balls BABYYYY w/mustard. I just love these balls...seriously...amazing and hits the meat spot when you are so hungry from working out.
Dinner/After workout:
6 shrimp/peppers and onions (grilled)
4 Egg whites
*Multivitamin/B-12/No whey protein/No flax (not today)/Gallon of water + 8oz.
The Gym Plan:
My plan was to go to the gym today and do the Day 4 Plan, which was shoulders and abs and when I got there I remembered they were having a BodyPump class. I just had to do it...so I did both! Extra work couldn't hurt, right?
What a FABULOUS workout! I had sweat dripping down my arms. This instructor kicked my butt! I didn't think she would be able to keep her side plank pose or whatever is was for too long before she broke out in laughter watching me...shake...convulsively...trying to hold this pose for what seemed like forever. She had to laugh...which I forgive her. I am sure I looked like I had not a muscle in this weak body to hold myself up. Apparently, she hasn't carried around my junk to know JUST how hard that really is... and I am spent. Goooood night my now 30 friends. XOXO
