The edit option disappears fairly quickly after you post. And best of luck with the challenge, as you know that excuses R not U.

made it to the gym today, when I got home NROL4W was at my door! I am gonna dig into it as soon as I make my lunch.
I have to figure out what I am going to do about the gym. My prepaid 2 year membership is up in March. OF course none of the contract info included the rate that we agreed we would apy monthly once the 2 years was up. Really that low rate and the day care hours are the only reason I would stay at this gym. I am going to speak with the manager tomorrow to see if we can agree on anything since they guy i purchased the membership with no longer works there.
Today Work out.
Work out A Breakin NROL
Squats 2x15 45lbs
Lunges 2x15 10lbs db
pushups 2x15 girl pushups
one arm row 2x15 10lbs
swissball crunches 2x15
15 minute intervals on treadmill, 5 minute cooldown

Different for every work out I believe,
Today was 60 sec.
Eats for today were good. Could have snuck in another snack, probably a prework out one. I also need to find some ways to add in more protien. First day in about a month with Zero sugar. I am crashing and tired but I am sure it will only take a few days to get out of my system.
1740cals
26% protein (108g)
37% carb

You will get used to that. You will stop noticing the lack of sugar and start noticing when you've had too much. 108g of protein is a decent amount. I didn't see if you listed a typical eating day, but to get much more than what you are you will have to be using shakes or other very highly concentrated sources like tuna cups, as well as working in moderately concentrated foods like dairy and nuts to all your meals.
Thats all just details though. You look like you have a great start here. Keep up the good work!

Goodmorning!
Man am I sore form yesterday! At least I feel like I have accomplished something.
Todays plan
Gym for Cardio
intervals for 20min or so and then some SS cardio.
I am still reading throught the book so I need some quiet time with no baby around to read. Though I could do that on the bike.

I will start logging my actual eats then for some opinions. I picked up a bucket of powder last night so that should be the little bit extra that I need.
I made a huge pot of turkey bean chili last night so that is pretty much what is on the menu for today. |

I am enjoying the book. I am pretty familiar with the nutrition stuff already. I am just trying to get my head around the eating more part. I have always been told its BWx10 for a caloric deficit to lose weight. So having to bump up my calories is different for me. Although not unwelcome! |

Just the gorcery store. I use soy protein so I just pick up the Genisoy stuff that they sell everywhere. My husband and his work out buddies buy thiers from REFLEX in Lougheed Mall. I used to get my "under the counter" suppliments from there. They are different owners though now.
Todays work out
55 minutes of Cardio
40 min hill intervals on treadmill
15 min intervals on recumbant bike
Cardio flew by today the gym had the hockey game on. GO CANADA! |

I don't really think you can beat Costco prices, but sometimes they will work out deals for you. |
