Okay, so this is the beginning of my journal. I should say that I have never done this before but I figured if I'm joining the August Challenge I might as well dive completely in.
I'm a mother of two; DD 15 yrs, DS 17 yrs, and I'm 37 years old. I'm a wee bit on the vertically challenged side at 4' 10" and can't afford to put on much weight cause it makes me look even shorter!
I ran into some trouble and missed about 4 weeks or so but I am currently easing back into NROLW Stage 4. I did workout B today during lunch time. I decreased the weight a little but still worked hard and felt awesome afterwords!
Food tracking is a challenge for me... this is what it looked like today:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, flax seed, berries and 6 egg whites.
Snack: cottage cheese and yogurt.
pre workout: Banana (easiest to grab at the time) & Protein Shake.
Worked out about 15 minutes after having the PWO meal.
Post Workout: Rice cake, salad greens with chicken and veggies.
Snack: Apple with natural peanut butter.
Supper: 2 slices whole grain bread topped with tuna and mozza cheese, baked. (worked late and that was a quick choice).
I have consumed 2 liters of water today which is a total accomplishment for me!!
I walk at 6 a.m. with hubby for about 35 minutes.
So thats it... I feel I had a great day.... so bring on tomorrow!
Every journey begins with a single step...er... Squat!
. Water intake is lacking.... I'm at about a liter now but the night is not over. Tomorrow I'll do better!
