A wonderful day when it comes to eating healthy and
working out. This morning I once again
worked out with my brother and it is always nice to have the company when
working out. My abs are feeling much
better; which I am happy about because I was worried about a stretched or torn
muscle - so happy to be feeling better.
Despite feeling better, I did want to take it a little easier just in
case and worked out with 10 pound weights instead of the usual 15-20.
Today, I completed Power 90 Sculpt 1-2 with it being
day 37 I am only about 8 days away from the switch to Sculpt 3-4, which I am
sure will kick my butt all over again.
But I am looking forward to the kicking.
Hopefully the exercise will spurn additional weight loss. As I have basically been at a plateau for a
month now.
I’d also like to thank my friend Meghan Slade who I
haven’t seen in person since high school but has been wonderful at watching my
food journal. I have a tendency to move
towards a diet of meat and processed proteins, but every time my vegetable
count drops to low, she sends me a reminder and I try to bring back the food
pyramid.
This time it was timed perfectly as just as she
mentioned my lack of, the garden started to bring in the vegetables and I was
able to pick the first round of Swiss Chard.
I’m kind of impressed with the Swiss Chard, usually when it comes to the
garden it’s all Jen, but this year she wasn’t feeling well so I planted a
couple rows, and I love Swiss Chard.
Tonight, I chopped up chicken sausage and bell
peppers and sautéed them in a little olive oil, and then put it over a bed of
Swiss Chard, it was very good, and low in calories and fat. I’ve taken a picture, but I do tend to cook
for taste and not often for presentation.
