Saturday, Jan 16th, 2010 Workout & Food

Here’s what I did to work out today:
 (note: Saturdays are generally optional for me to workout, but I felt motivated today so I gave it a go. That makes 6 out of 7 days for me this week which is good)

• 20 mins on the treadmill when I woke up and then
• 25 mins of Yoga later in the afternoon (this was the same yoga I did yesterday, I was able to laugh a little less.... still feel like it's a good workout though!)

Now, for food....

  Yesterday I was done eating dinner by 6:15 and then I stayed up really late and ended up going to bed starving. NOT a good feeling. I should have eaten something around 9pm again but I hate eating late. I need to figure that out though. I guess it really only effects me on Thurs & Fri (my weekend) because I go to bed so early Sat-Wed. Anyway, that’s just something that was a struggle last night.

Here’s what I ate today:

Breakfast:
Fiber 1 Pancakes- 190

¼ cup light maple syrup- 100


Lunch:
Kristen and I were out and about so we had Jimmy Johns.

I get the #4 without cheese (turkey, alfalfa sprouts, tomato, lettuce) and chips and I know it’s 600 calories.

(I’ve found it’s great to know the calories before I go out to eat so that I don’t get stuck!)

Snack:
1 orange- 50
1 pumpkin lemon cake- 150

Dinner:
I got to enjoy a delicious dinner at the Mutch’s tonight. Because I didn’t cook, I need to estimate the calories.

I had about 7 oz of Delmonico steak- 320

1 slice total of hearty whole grain bread- 100
Mixed veggies sautéed in fresh herbs
Spinach salad with a tiny bit of goat cheese and light dressing- 50
Dessert: 1 pumpkin lemon cake- 150

TOTAL CALORIES TODAY- 1710

We watched the movie Food Inc. tonight. Very interesting. It’s late and I need to get to bed but, if I have time tomorrow I may share my thoughts about it. Either way, I definitely recommend that everyone watch it!
