Food Journal 6/22/11 & Workout

Tonight we worked my legs and abs, we did heavy weights tonight, I love when we do this.  Then I did cardio on the Stairmaster for 20 mins at level 90,  that will really make you sweat!!  I’ll be surprised if my abs aren’t sore tomorrow! 

On the leg press, I say to my trainer “Whoa! This is kinda heavy”                           My Trainer:  “You’ve pressed 240 lbs before”    Well…I may have, but I never knew it, I never look to see how much I’m lifting! He added some more weight after that!  Great leg workout!! :)

Food Journal 3/22/11~~”Be Inspired”

I went to the gym tonight and worked out on the Stairmaster for an hour and then had a stretch fest and rolled on the foam roller!  That was a long hour!!  I have never worked out on the Stairmaster for an hour before!! Yay me!  :)   It felt good to push myself again! 

I was driving to work today and saw a billboard sign that caught my eye and I could not get it out of my head, I thought about it all day, it said “Here’s your Chance…for a Second Chance” ~~something to think about!!

Saturday I was out at the Town Center shopping and stopped for lunch at Cantina Laredo…I had their “Honey Shrimp Salad”, it has grilled shrimp, Jicama, (a Jicama is a sweet root vegetable that looks like a turnip) Mangos, Roasted Walnuts & Goat Cheese crumbles the dressing is a Tropical Honey Vinaigrette, its super light tasting…it’s so good!  I took a picture of my salad so, you could see what it looks like! I love how my friends are so supportive, they now remind me to take pictures of my food!

This tweaking my diet is getting kind of involved!  I’m trying to get 1800 calories in and of those 1800 calories 60% should be from carbs, 15% from fat and 25% from protein…that’s what I’m trying…not hitting my numbers!! I’m over on my fat which surprised me, under on my carbs, but I pretty much hit my protein.  The almonds did me in on the fat, in my effort to up my calories I ate more almonds than I normally do which of course increased my fat.  I’ll have to try something else tomorrow. 

I ran 4 miles tonight on the treadmill, and then I went and stretched really well, I am sore from last nights work out with my trainer.  I like it though!

I added more protein to my diet…I didn’t realize how much until after I added it up right before I went to work out. I had 124 grams before my work out and after dinner I ended up at 171 grams!  I was supposed to add some complex carbs, but looking back at what I ate, the only real carbs I had were an apple and some oatmeal.  I normally have more fruit.  It did affect my work out, I didn’t have the energy that I usually have. 

So, tomorrow my plan is to add some brown rice or a sweet potato and eat my fruit and lower the protein by about 56 grams!  I’m also going to up my calories from 1500 to 1800, since I’ve been running again.  My water intake has been low also, so I need to work on getting all my water in.  I’m really interested in seeing how this will affect me.
