LBDP day 18/42

Thursday.

Last day of football camp - Neil got up extra early and took him so I slept in!

Breakfast:
Shredded wheat cereal
Lunch:
Chobani yogurt
Snack:
celery and hummus
Supper:
Grilled chicken with tomatoes and black beans

Exercise:
Tris and chest and 20/10s with Angela. Today was wear obnoxious bright colors day. Neither of us had much, but our shoes were pretty bright colors!

After doing tricep pushdowns I had to do overhead tri extensions...Angela just finished up and was going to do what I just finished. Picked up a 20 pound dumbbell and could barely move it over my head - but with a little encouragement from Angela I did it. Then during 20/10s Angela was suffering from jelly legs from our leg workout yesterday, but finished with encouragement from me!

Did not get enough water today. Better tomorrow!

LBDP Day 17/42

Okay Okay - Getting up at 5am to get my son to football camp this week has been a strain on my eating. Tomorrow is the last day. It's true - when you eat sugar - you crave it all the more! Here's a great article on why. I need a day of prepping foods. Been a while since I've made my turkey quinoa muffins - and that sounds REALLY good about now! Just finished a quick, but awesome leg workout with Angela tonight.

Breakfast: Oatmeal protein shake
Lunch: Pizza Ranch - chicken breast and salad and one tiny slice of pepperoni pizza
Supper: It's 7:20 and I haven't had supper yet. Just got back from the gym. I would have done better if I would have just fasted today! Will be making either a protein shake or making eggs here shortly.

Workout with Angela:
Jump squats
Deep wide legged squats
Walking lunges
Stationary lunges
Bulgarian split squats
Alternating lunges
Plie squats
Leg press
Leg curls
Calf raises
Single leg deadlifts
Hip raises

While at camp today I read my new Oxygen magazine - a tribute to Robert Kennedy. It brought me to tears. There was an article in there written by Robert himself before he died. Very moving.

LBDP day 8/42

Tuesday

Exercise:
No workout today. Angela was going to meet me at 9:00, but then couldn't make it, so I was going to meet her at 4:30, but I was in the middle of cleaning the basement and couldn't get away. For as much up and down the stairs and lifting heavy boxes I did - it was a little bit of a workout.

Meals today weren't that great. I find it hard to eat when it's so warm out, and I was so busy cleaning that time got away from me.

Breakfast:
Half oatmeal protein shake
Lunch:
Tuna wrap
Supper:
Chicken breast, broccoli, half sweet potato
Snacks:
Hummus and carrots
Grapes

Feel a little off today - it's because I didn't work out in the morning! That sets the entire day for me!

Today Aiden and I went to meet Jodi and Craig and picked up two kittens from them. They are pretty cute - and I'm not a 'cat person'. We named them Bison and Siouxsie. Ha ha.

Oh yah - had Cheerios again for supper!
