Day 12~ Tuesday Feb. 14th Valentine's day
Figured I'd post my "mostly before" photos before the 8 week challenge. Just goes to show that I still have a long way to go but still have come quite far as this suit didn't even fit yet this time last year. Showing off the stomach pooch & slight muffin top going on in the 1st one, the batwings in the 2nd & my back creases in the last photo.
Catalyst 1st thing in AM (have to since on empty stomach) w/o it muscle would start getting ripped away at instead of fat.
Workout #1~ Rev Abs 40 min.
Breakfast~Skim milk (adding 170 calories) to my 220 Cal. AdvoCare chocolate meal shake
mid morning snack~ 1 regular sized banana
Lunch~Hooters leftovers, part of a serving of fries &
1/2 of a bleu cheeseburger with cooked onions, tomato & lettuce.
Afternoon snack 3pm~ Chobani Greek honey yogurt
Workout #2~ Zumba (instructor) 60 min.
Late afternoon snack 7pm~ I couldn't take it anymore.... choc. frosted creme filled long john & 2 Dove dark chocolate pieces (yoga studio's treat) Guess that's what happens when they leave dark chocolate laying around for customers.
Workout #3~ Yoga Nidra long, slow, deep & stretching 60 min.
Dinner~ chicken (skin off) leg area, whole grain rice & pine nuts, salad tomatoes green olives small amount of bleu cheese & Italian dressing.
nighttime~ .5 cup skim milk & L-Glutamine... in hind sight I should have taken nighttime recovery too.. :( sore from "restorative postures" in yoga. My back was twitching like crazy to try to release my pelvic/hip flexors.

nighttime~ .5 cup skim milk & L-Glutamine & nighttime recovery.

SUNDAY 2/12~
Breakfast~strawberry bagel bread french toast made with eggs, cinn & sugar & skim milk. 3 slices. fake maple syrup topping (yes my PT Margaret gave me crap about the syrup) but hey you know if you don't use much of it & you haven't needed to buy more natural organic yet...

Because when on those all issues were non issue. Apparently, there is a huge difference in a different brand of them.
Sat in the infarred sauna 30 min. REALLY needed to. I am VERY sore & tired. That's what I get for trying out something other than Nighttime recovery for assisting with soreness. Sauna helps a lot with it & also supposedly assists with weightloss too.
