Journey To My Summer Six Pack DAY 11

DAY 11

Day 11

Confession .........I totally had a horrible weekend and ate like SHIT!!!! Absolute garbage ...........I am ashamed of myself! Please issue me my Hail Marys so I can chant away my caloric sins! :) Yup........so I biffed it pretty hard but that won't stop me I am back on track and eating healthy again! I enjoyed eggs and a banana for breakfast...... YUMMY!! I will update workout later!!!


Workout

OMG I wish I would have recorded this work out!!!! I did this spiritual yoga which had like this crazy Indian rain dance music playing. Bonus you chanted primitive noises! Like the sound HURGHA ( sound that noise out and that was what i was chanting!) OH BOY.... did I get into it?!?! I was so into it I started laughchanting! ( which is apparently frowned upon and it is not fun when you figure that out the hard way :) oops my bad! lol) Next time I will be more mentally prepared and will try really hard not to make an ass out of myself!

Journey To My Summer Six Pack Day 5

Diet is 80%.....Abs are for the majority made in the kitchen!!




DAY 5 (SEEING SOME(SMALL) CHANGES)

DAY 5  (I haven't decided how long this journey should take)



Workout


Guilty, I keep mine in my room!
Foam Roll with my Rumble Roller!



I started out by trying some dance-ish work out video (that I will leave nameless) that was recommended to me by a friend (that I will also leave nameless(yes, you are very lucky)).  That lasted a whopping 10 minutes before I threw in the towel! I don't know how those videos make so much money! I personally suck at multi-step graceful coordinated movements. I can pick heavy things up and put them down! ( If you got that joke, pat yourself on the back) Moving on I quickly switched to something new not wanting the poor beginning to effect my workout.

Next 

I did a Pilates DVD......I love Kristen Mcgee! Here's a clip of her in action!! http://youtu.be/qePxY46ciCA
If I could have get a personal session in with her I would DIE!  I like to throw in a work out video from time to time! It can be so mindless and relaxing!! Also every instructor or trainer has a different approach so sometimes you can find things you will incorporate in your personal routine. 45 min














THIS IS SO YUMMY...........

FOOD



                     
                                EGG SALAD WRAP...NO FUN




  • 6:30 am Yogurt coffee 
  • 10:00 am  banana 2 pieces of lunch meat string cheese
  • 2:00 pm egg salad wrap (I always buy 2 dozen eggs and immediately hard boil one package, a hard boiled egg  can be made into a great snack or meal) I diced  up celery 1 tbsp of mustard & Mayo (I usually use pickle juice instead of Mayo but I'm out ) to put in my egg salad.I also add spinach leafs for a little extra ruffage. 
  • 5:00 snacked on popcorn ( its not terrible and it can cure your salt fix)
  • 7:00 orange, cucumber sandwich low-fat mozzarella cheese sliced chicken and a single line of low fat ranch I wish I had red onion or sprouts to add to this! 
  • 11:00 pm ....... 1 soft taco from taco bell :( but only drank water while out!
CUCUMBER SANDWICH
