Not sure if any of the Males read the female blog... But if so, Happy Father's Day and enjoy your day....
Low Carb Day - weight 173.5
9:30 Egg white omelet w/spinach and mushrooms
2:30 container of meatloaf, 1/2 container of sweet potatoes, 1/2 container of asparagus
5:30 large salad w/ egg yolk and balsamic
walk/run 3 miles w/the kids
10:00 Dream Protein drink (2 scoops)
Quart size bag of raw veggies - gallon water throughout day
I have some cooking to do to refill my containers so I had what I made the family for dinner. Their request was my homemade meatloaf. I had only a 1/2 container carb and didn't eat any Almond Butter due to the fat content in the meatloaf and the whole wheat bread crumbs. I will be doing a round of cooking for myself later tonight when hubby goes to work.
Question: If I only strength trained 2x and have no recharge meal, do I still have to find a place to fit in the 3rd high carb day. This week I only cycled 2x. (my recharge meal is tomorrow because we are going to Shogun for daughter's 8th grade recognition). Should I pick 1 of my spinning days as a high carb day? Or is it ok to cycle 2x?
Tracy, first of all good job with the weight. That's 9 pounds isn't it?
Meals look good. If you don't have a weight training day just chose the hardest workout day. Chose the spin class that is typically harder then the other.
7.5 lbs since starting this program but looking at the big picture since Jan 2009 17.5 lbs. Slower process than I am use to but I am healthier and prolly fitter than I have in the past.. And more importantly smoke free for a year and a half.. So its all good...
Jody, going to post menu later...
