Heya Cerella, that would be fairly awkward. But it's nice that you two still get along enough to spend time together.
This is going to be a LONG post because I wanted to update you all on my training thing at my gym. It's basically just the same as written in my dairy, and I'll come back and edit my other meals into this later.
I wanted to do measurements so that they are accurate and not my ones done at home, then she had me do a survey thing, and talked a bit about my work out. (We only had half an hour) So! A lot of my measurements are good for my bone structure, but some certainly need some work. She is making me a print out of all that exact stuff for when I go to work out tomorrow, so I'll let everyone know about it then.
She switched around my workout, so I am now biking first, then doing weights (and I'm only allowed 30 seconds resting between to try to keep my heart going) and then the arctrainer. Also, on the arc I used to go for 25 minutes, starting with a fast 4, walk 1, fast 4, walk 1, fast 3, walk 2, etc. She had me switch that around. I guess the first 20 minutes of a workout, you are burning different types of fats and whatnot, so doing the arctrainer in the beginning, I was working hard and not gaining my max benefits! Silly me!
So I have my workout switched around a bit, and it'll take some getting used to, but I'm going to stick to it!
Now for eating! She has given me a pretty strict routine to stick to. It's one of those six meal a day things, and she wants me to shoot for at least four. I'm going to stick to it as hard as I can, but of course I won't be making everything every day.
Meal 1 includes 5 eggs whites, a whole egg, oatmeal, and 1/2 cup fresh fruit.
Meal 2 includes london broil cooked, brown rice or sweet potato, 1/2 cup green veggies.
Meal 3 includes talapia or grilled chicken brease, 1/2 cupt green veggies, 3/4 cup rice or sweet potato
Meal 4 includes chicken breast, 1/2 cup green veggies, sweet potato or protein powder, 1/2 cup fresh fruit
Meal 5 includes tilapia or grilled chicken breast or salmon filet, green salad with balsamic vinegar dressing and olive oil
Meal 6 includes egg whites or lead turkey or skinless chicken breast, 1/2 cup green veggies
I'm allowed rice cakes (only 2 per day) as snacks.
Now, of course I am not doing to follow this to a T, but I am going to use it as some good suggestions and guidelines and I'll try to do 4 small meals a day.
She also gave me Yes and No lists.
On my no list:
Added salt
sugar
fried foods
cheese
dairy products
pork
alcohol
butter
margarine
regular or diet dressings
fruit juices
junk food
Yes list:
boneless chicken breast
extra lean ground turkey not from the deli
egg whites
london broil
low sodium tuna
fresh tilapia
sweet potatoes
quaker oats
cream of wheat
brown rice
whote wheat bread
green veggies
balsamic vinegar
garlic
onions
extra virgin olive oil
non salted salsa
sugar free maple syrup
splenda
unsalted rice cakes
sugar and salt free seasonings
strawberries, pineapple, kiwi
olive oile cooking spray
Soooooo that no list isn't going to be completely done. I am going to still include cheese... but I will cut back. The dairy in general will be difficult, and the no fruit juice
but I'll stick to it as much as I can.
Once I get some money (after shopping for my new eating style, I will be fairly broke), I am probably going to sign up for another training session so that I can go around and actually fix up my workout more with her. On the arctrainer, my heartrate is WAY high... 180's to 195ish... so I'm working on getting that down at the moment. I found out that I wasn't actually breathing enough.. so that put it up a bit. Today it was 185 at the highest.. and only during the last 3 minutes or so was it that high! So yay for that. I also want to have more training sessions paid for so that I can keep up with my measurements... probably once a month would be a good goal for that.
That all being said, so far today:
Breakfast:
Bowl cereal
Skim milk (haha, failed that no dairy thing for today already!)
Snack:
Banana
Dinner tonight:
Turkey burger on a wheat bun
____the burger had garlic and 1/3 tablespoon of bbq sauce in it.
Salad
____Lettuce (duh)
____Cucumbers
____Mushrooms
____Celery
____Balsamic vinaigrette (Holy crap! Only 5 cals in 2 tablespoons. That is crazyyyy)
Edit: Snack:
Two slices peanut butter toast.
Calories: 1001 That is NOT ok. I am going to have some cheese even though it is on my no no list simply to get my calories up. I can't believe I only ate that much today and it's really not ok with me.
Revised cals: 1496, much better. Still not high enough but not too low to worry.
Exercise: 30 minutes bike, 15 minutes weights, 25 minutes arctrainer
Exercise so far this week: 5 hours 10 minutes (310 minutes)
Challenges: Still no soda. Got the calcium because of my snack!
