21 Day Fix Day 3!

Wow! I am sitting down to blog about this hectic crazy day and I must admit I'm pretty proud of myself here! I definitely wasn't prepared food wise today but I made it work! 

Oh my GAWD I am SORE.... And today was freaking leg day! Lol but my legs did really loosen up after..... But I'll need this space at work tomorrow

I had jury duty today, and it was ALL damn day. Pima to say the least. Crazy defense attorney asked me four times if I was biased because I had knowledge of the law... because of my degree. Like I said, wouldn't that just make me apply it properly?? Alright enough for my rant!! 

More about the FIX

So, I started with my coffee and shakeo TO GO. With a teaspoon of natural PB ice and water (the vegan chocolate admittedly is not my favorite but pretty good when blended with pb). So I starred with a RED 

(At this point I was pumped about jury duty....)

Well two hours in I was getting really hungry so at 10 I ate an apple from my purse (always keep emergency fruit lol!)

Then lunch came at 12:30! Talk about a hungry girl! Well I found this little sandwhich shop, and originally ordered a chicken sandwich, no bread, and a side salad.... They didn't have grilled chicken salad on the menu.. Weirdos. 

No dressing, no cheese. 

And I took exactly what fit into one GREEN and one red of chicken... Here is proof that they give you WAY more than you need! I know it's veggies but still...

The top container is what I had left after I took out all the good veggies, peppers, cucumbers, tomato, onion, ect to eat... Here is the actual portion I get to eat... Mind you, still a ton of food 

I met some fellow friendly jurors who asked if they could sit with me, really great nice people. (Also, some random lady shared her umbrella with me today. I usually hate the city... But man Pittsburgh people are very thoughtful.)

Well around 2:30 I was so hungry I could murder someone. Lol I had half of a zone perfect bar (yep protein candy I know, more emergency food from my purse. I had to) which I swaped for a yellow because we can have a treat at blue size if we swap for yellow. And another apple (purple) lol 

So here is where I fell short, but! I stuck to the plan. It was allowed! 

I came home around 5:30 and scarfed down a boca burger on one slice of Ezekiel bread...red,yellow.... And had one green of Brussels sprouts. 

Did my lower fix!!! Wanted to die! Lol I was so sore... But honestly? After the work out I feel better! 

And I'm eating a meal of eggs (red) spinach (green) and flax (orange) :) 

All in all a great day... But a hard one. It shows that these busy days do not have to trash your plan!!!

The 21 Day Fix: Day TWO!

Day one was AMAZING to say the least! I definitely learned a few things about my eating habits, and I started to get hungry right on cue (about every 2-3 hours), with the exception of my second snack because lunch was extremely filling. The workout was quick and fun, I definitely underestimated the difficulty level! I am SORE! But on my right side more than my left lol odd. I hope today's work out evens it up! 

I noticed that I fell short somewhere... I missed a container!! I had an orange container that I didnt use :(! it says NOT to skip containers so I will be sure to make sure I dont miss any today. I also had a yellow in one of my last two meals. I'll try my best to adjust it to earlier. 

Now, Today breakfast was the same, vanilla Shakeology! I liked having it in the morning yesterday. It gave me a good kick start and keeps me full until snack.

9:30 I opted for a half of banana (P) and a teaspoon of PB (T) didnt look like much but it was SO good. I really like Teddy's All natural peanutbutter. SUGAR is not needed in peanut butter, read lables it should be "Peanuts, salt" thats IT! Honesty, taste is not that different.  

10:30 ehhh if i remember correctly I started to get hungry around this time yesterday too. Lunch is in an hour, and Im going to just drink my water. I need to find a good AM snack to bridge the gap between breakfast and lunch. maybe a yellow? 😕 but I like to hoard those! I only get two lol

11:30! Finally! LUNCH time! 😊 I brought in the left overs from dinner! Measured everything out and put it in a bowl. One yellow full of brown rice, one green of cooked peppers and a little of the water and organic tomato sauce broth. And one red full of extra lean ground beef! I never ever ever eat red meat two days in a row, but the soup was good and too quick to pass up. It's within the guidelines so I will deem it as acceptable

Snack time at 2:00!

I'm thinking MANGO yum! And half a green, I'll eat the other half later... Tried to finish up my carrots from yesterday with a little celery

5:30 meal 5!

My mom and I went to visit my aunt and we wanted to grab some of her fabulous food. Family recipe with mushrooms beef and noodles! It worked out to be one yellow and one red! I added an orange full of flax :) Sooo yummy! 

And then the three of us went on a very very long walk! I rocked my insanity T of course! 

8:30 yes I know it's late! But I have to get it in!! 

Scrambled eggs (RED) with baby spinach (GREEN), and a little organic Swiss cheese (BLUE)

And I did it!! I used all of the containers!!! 

Upper fix was a BLAST! And I'm so glad it was upper! Lol my legs are KILLING ME!! 

 

I am SO ready for tomorrow!!! Bring it on!! 

21 day fix DAY ONE!!

Well, Today starts my VERY first day for the 21 day fix! I've kept track throughout the day to give ya'll the honest details of how I’m feeling.

This will not only benefit the people thinking about the program/doing the program, but it will help ME keep track of where I’m falling short and how to adjust accordingly :-)

I started my Morning off of course with my cup of coffee.... just a PINCH of raw cane sugar and a splash of almond milk. This is allowed on the program but should be limited to one to two cups a day. Anyone that knows me will assure you, allowing me coffee in the morning benefits everyone I may come in contact with.... no joke, I don’t speak a word until I have a cup!

and I had one more at work with breakfast. this time just a little almond milk, no sugar at all.

Now, for the food.... Currently I am not extremely hungry at 10:30 am... but I know myself, because I go from high to low very fast lol (I'm two meals in
and about an hour out from lunch.)

I started my food a little later than I should have at 7.
Just shakeology and water. That’s one RED.

I am never extremely hungry in the morning but usually force down some oatmeal or cereal. (I like to save my Shakeology for a snack when im not super hungry but need to eat.) 
after the little preseason I gave myself, I learned two things.... I eat WAY too many carbs, and I need to space out my food through more meals. So, Instead of a heavy breakfast I went light. it kept me full until my snack.

9:30 String cheese and fruit!
Yum! but I am really wanting to reach for some YELLOW lol I am conditioned from the INSANITY program to eat carbs with every meal!

Honestly, I feel like I burned through it pretty quickly. At 11, Im sucking down a ton of water because I’m feeling hungry before lunch....
This is going to be an adjustment! but on a positive note, I KNOW ill be getting the right amount of water :-) good thing my cube is SUPER close to the bathroom lol i have a tiny bladder

11:30 LUNCH Time!
Lunch was very filling, but odd simply because i didnt make it to the store last night (due to the amazing Pittsburgh Pengins game I was at :-p!). I had 2 hard boiled eggs (RED) baby carrots (GREEN) and a sweet potato (YELLOW)

Wow! surprising enough, lunch was extremely filling and I walked a mile after with a few coworkers :) such a nice day!

2:30 However, I had to have my snack and I'm pushing it with time, so I picked an apple (PURPLE) and peanutbutter (TEASPOON)

5:30 The snack held me over for a while, I should have eaten dinner as meal 5 but I'm not hungry and getting ready to spend a little time with my mom walking the track. I mixed up vegan chocolate shakeology(RED), with a teaspoon of pb, ice, and water in the nutribullet. I also added a side of steamed broccoli (GREEN) :) quick and easy! 

And I completed my first 21 day fix workout!! Total body cardio fix! And it is NO joke, I was feeling the burn and breaking a sweat! 

Had my dinner A LITTLE late at 9 stuffed pepper soup which is RED and GREEN :)! Drinking my approved 4oz of wine (YELLOW) as I finish my homework! 

Over all a great day, and I didn't crash from cutting way back on those delish carbs! I wasn't even tired one bit!! 

On to day TWO!! I'm ready :)
