More Boot Camp Challenge!!!
I haven't lost anything in like 3 weeks and I really don't get it. I've been tracking my food and exercise as I always do. I should still be in a calorie deficit almost every day, and the rare days that I'm not, it shouldn't be enough to hinder my efforts so much.
I'm going to step up my exercise and reduce my calories a little bit more, I think around 1400. That's going to be tough though, that's not a whole lot of food, to me...
I love the days that I don't have to work because I can spend as much time at the gym as I want. I worked out for almost two hours on Friday and an hour yesterday. It was nice but I am DAMN sore today.
I'm supposed to plan ahead for food this week and next for the challenge.
My plan of attack will include lots of lean protein, lots of veggies, lots of fruit, and some dairy. I had a lot of yogurt last week but realized that it had sugar in it, and since I'm supposed to avoid that... I didn't get any this week. I did get sugar free pudding though. Haha. I got stuff to make shrimp kabobs w/ peppers and onions and mushrooms. I got stuff to make beef stir fry without rice, and extra veggies. I also got more veggies to steam to eat with chicken. I got some salt-free seasonings too, since It appears I may be having too much sodium and retaining water. Cottage cheese and almonds for snacks along with the fruit of course. Breakfast will vary between turkey bacon, Kashi GoLEAN cereal, and possibly protein shakes. Hopefully all of this will be under 1400 daily.
Lots of exercise! I could probably work out every day of the week if I really want to, but from what I understand, I need to give my body at least one day of rest per week, so usually I don't work out on Sundays. 6 days a week is easy to do. I recently added pilates. I will probably try to do the full DVD at least twice a week, and maybe add a few 10 minute segments here and there at other times. I'm wanting to be able to do at least an hour of cardio when I hit the gym. I've been doing the interval stuff lately to try to kick my body into burning more fat. We'll see if it works in about a week or so, huh?
