Anyway, I'm at 4.5 weeks into my gym program. I am PSYCHED!! I was at the gym yesterday (one of the 'worst'...aka best gym days yet) & was doing situps with a 20 pound bar in my hands (I began at the gym not being able to do any full ones, instead doing half situps) My squats are still not there yet, but as I told the trainer, my gym life is measured by my progressions. My overall goal: to be at the same place as everyone else started. I might make it!
Food:
I was off at my parents for Easter weekend, & did NOT do well. I ate ice cream & pizza & pie & chocolate...etc. Boo.
However, since being back home I am doing a bit better.
Eating lots of oatmeal with apples, trying to make salad (I love salad once it's made...but can't stand making it), etc. Even making eggs with ham.
Today:
Breakfast: oatmeal w/ apples
Snack: mixed berries w/ 1/2 a greek yogurt (greek yogurt is very thick...not sure if I like it)
Lunch: 'Smart Eat' chicken tv dinner
Snack: mix of soy nuts, almonds, cranberries, & pumpkin seeds
Dinner: more oatmeal w/ banana & apples
Snack: more nut mix
lots of repeated meals...but I've not yet figured out how to eat a balanced diet of carbs, protein & vegg.
