Weight is up today almost a half pound. Although I have been within my RDI for the last few days, working out of town on my rental has resulted in me having to go out to eat daily. The quality of my food intake has been awful and I simply have not had a sufficient quantity of fruits, vegetables and water. And, I'm sure it was all laden with sodium. To top it all off, I have been so stressed out over finishing this rental house in a short period of time that I am sure my hormones are way out of whack...and I have not been able to run since last Tuesday. I suppose there is no better day to start anew than a Monday though. So...here is my plan today:
Zumba and abs this morning followed by oatmeal for breakfast with 32 ounces of water.
Lunch will be hummus and carrots for snacking, another 32 ounces of water and homemade pulled pork.
Dinner will be another 32 ounces of water and one cup of white chicken chili.
I am going to avoid bread and other fast carbs. And, this evening, I will jog 10K.
I have exactly 25 days left until we leave for the cruise. I'd like to look nice and trim in a bathing suit. Between now and then, I would like to drop thirteen pounds. I know that is pretty ambitious, but I do think I can do it as long as I stick to my plan of attack closely.
My weekly plan is going to consist of Jogging 5x per week, Zumba 5x per week and Abs 5x per week. Instead of jogging 3.5 miles, I need to increase that to 5-7.5 miles a day. I need to increase my distance on the jogging anyway now as I have a 10 miler in March and a half marathon coming up in April. In January I need to be training at 7.5 to 9 miles per jog. I want to up my water intake to flush out my system and let go of any fluid I may be retaining. I sustained a chemical burn on one of my hands while working on the rental this week. Granted, I don't think I have retained a full half pound due to the burn (although it is a bad burn) but my hand is swollen enough that wearing jewelry is out of the question. Drinking extra water should flush at least some of that out. Ok, now it is time to put my plan into action.
Let's get down to business.
