Wednesday's All-Inclusive Sum Up:
The workout was awesome. I felt because of the choices of what I had been putting into my body over the past few days, I actually had the energy to wake up at 5am and workout/stretch for 90 minutes. Although sometimes when we feel really good, we start to slip and eat the foods that are our weakness versus what keeps us feeling good and energized.
Meal 1: 6:30am
Large Tea with 3 sugars and 1% milk
Need to switch to no calorie sweetener! Day Mantra!
Meal 2: 9:00am
Large Orange, Banana, Carrot and Cantalope Smoothie with a shot of whey protein. 1 small cup of non-sweetened Irish Oatmeal with 2 packets of no calorie sweetener (I DID IT!!), 1 glass of water.
I'm thrilled with this combination. I was advised the fruits I chose for the smoothie may be higher in sugar. Although I love these and banana has a double purpose of being good for your hair. :) I was also advised of the great choice of including the protein as this goes straight to the muscles. Go me!
Meal 3: 12:00pm
Orange
Needed a snack high in fiber.
Meal 4: 12:45pm
Two Diet Cokes, 1 crab and shrimp cake sandwich with white sauce, side salad with carrots and tomatoes and side of steak fries with ketchup. 1 cup of coffee with cream and 2 no calorie sweetener packets.
I was advised the crab and shrimp are alone very high in cholesterol and with the bread, this sandwich is very fattening. Encouraged to weave more protein into my lunch. I also have a weakness for fries. I thought the balance was ok since I also had a side salad but a deep fried potato combined with the bread on the sandwich... I might as well be Henry the 8th. Need to zap the cream with skim milk.
Meal 5: 5:00pm
5 small squares of chocolates
We changed vendors today at work and they gave me chocolate. As men know since the dawn of time, women can't resist chocolate. It was an assortment. I think I might be able to get away with this snack in the future if I balance the sugar in the rest of my day.
Meal 6: 9:00pm
Cheese Quesadilla, 1 glass of orange juice, 1 pork egg roll with 4 packets of duck sauce, 1 fortune cookie.
Just to be fair my bunny rabbit had 2 fortune cookies. I only had one. Although he had a salad for dinner. Ok. Checkmate. Between the sugar in the duck sauce and orange juice, my body is now under high levels of sugar. The pork egg roll was another deep fried bad, bad call. Body is craving bad food because all I'm feeding it is bad food. Need to adjust my intake levels.
