Hello!

I figured I’d wake up super sore and hungry today but my body never ceases to confuse me! It’s so unpredictable. I woke up with a sore back, obliques, and calves but nothing else was unbearably sore. Strange- I could barely walk after my leg workout yesterday! I also didn’t wake up very hungry either. Who knows! I did wake up with swollen and bruised veins in my hands though.. this girl is not used to punching anything!

Ouch! I look like an old lady! LOL

For breakfast I went with a yogurt bowl that contained:

  • 3/4 cup 0% Fage mixed with cinnamon, stevia, and ginger
  • 1/4 cup pure pumpkin
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1/2 cup defrosted strawberries
  • 1/4 cup Kashi Go Lean
  • 1 tsp Costco Organic PB

Yum! Chia seeds honestly seem to hold me over longer.. despite that yogurt bowl being fairly small in calories it held me over 3 hours and then I had a snack! I had 1/2 cup Daisy 2% Cottage cheese blended with 1/2 tsp 100% cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, and stevia. Plus a Lean and Mean Pumpkin Muffin!

Mmm! When I make a batch of muffins I always freeze them individually and then I have them at my fingertips whenever I crave them!

After snacking I went to Philosophy and then came home to lunch. Therese posted a Broccoli Frittata tutorial this morning and I knew I had to try it! I followed her steps and it was so easy! For mine I used:

  • 1 egg
  • 3/4 cup Egg Beaters
  • 1 1/2 cup broccoli
  • Red pepper flakes, dried oregano

It came out beautiful!

I topped mine with a Light Laughing Cow Cheese Wedge and red chili:

And half an apple with cinnamon on the side:

The whole apple is pictured but I only ate half because I got full!

After lunch I headed to the gym and got a nice workout in. I did upper body work:

  1. Hammer curls- 2 sets of 10 with 12.5lb dumbbells
  2. Bicep curls- 1 set of 10 with 15lb dumbbells, 1 set of 10 with 12.5 dumbbells
  3. Tricep dips- 2 sets of 15 with body weight
  4. Tricep overhead extension- 2 sets of 15 with 15lbs
  5. Bench press- 2 sets of 12 with 15lb dumbbells
  6. Chest fly- 2 sets of 12 with 12.5lb dumbbells
  7. Arnold Press- 2 sets of 6 with 15lb dumbbells
  8. Lateral raises- 2 sets of 12 with 7.5lb dumbbells
  9. Upright row- 2 sets of 10, 1 set of 15 with 30lb barbell
  10. Skull crushers- 2 sets of 20 with 30 lb barbell
  11. Bent over row- 1 set of 10 with 15lbs, 1 set of 8 with 20lbs, 1 set of 10 with 15lbs, 1 set of 6 with 25lbs, 1 set of 10 with 15lbs
  12. 20 minutes on the stairmaster- fat burn level 10
  13. 15 minutes treadmill walk- incline 0%-4% speed 3.0

And I ended with 5 clapping push ups!

I worked up quite the appetite and went with my favorites- yogurt and protein powder. Today’s version had 2/3 cup 0% Fage, 1 packet Unsweetened Banana Spiru-tein, 1/2 mashed banana, cinnamon, and stevia:

Can you see how creamy that is? I love it! However I was still hungry and that dang sugar-free pudding mix was staring at me from the counter.. so I had 1/3 cup cottage cheese mixed with 1 tsp of the pudding mix and 1 tbsp raw oats:

Therese is a bad influence on me! Just kidding.. it’s delicious!

After eating I headed to my last class of the day- biology. I didn’t get out until about 7:30 and I wasn’t very hungry even then! But I still had dinner of course. I sauteed 1 zucchini, 1/2 bell pepper, onion, and 4 oz lean ground turkey breast in a skillet with Pam. Once the veggies were soft I added 1/4 cup no salt tomato sauce and red pepper flakes. Voila!

Man I ate a lot of dairy today! But it was delicious so I’ll take the risk of getting a kidney stone ;)

I hope you all had a great night.. I’ll see you tomorrow!
