Mutiny on the Body/ 21 day fix week 1 lower fix

First and most importantly.  I want to eat my foot. I'm pretty raveous after working out. Also last night i got home and between being wiped and it being super humid I just couldn't cook.  I had 3 slices of cheese and called it a night.

I was up at 3am ...blah




So the scale has moved...I don't think this is PMS, I think this is just how long it took my body to deal with the 3 day carb binge I had over the 4th of July.  Usually after a binge I don't want to see the scale shock so I give myself a few days.  Getting on everyday and not seeing ANY change was an eye opener.  I wasn't going to get on today, but I've learned I just want to see a whoosh so I don't get on, then when I finally get on I want to see a big drop.  If I don't see a big drop I'm disappointed.  Rather than go through that I got on, before my workout.  363.  I'm not happy, but I was 364 AFTER my workouts all week, so I can live with this. I've learned the lesson and really don't see a big binge like that happening anytime soon.  The after effect is just not worth it.  Also it didn't even taste that good.

The reason I called the post Mutiny on the body is because my body did what it was going to do...I decided to eat the carbs it decided well alright Miss I want to eat all the carbs this is what you get...so disrespectful


In workout land.  Got up..it was a struggle.  I didn't feel arm day till late last night and this morning. It actually isn't bad I'm a little sore, but nothing too bad.  Leg day (lower fix) was a problem.  I thought this would be kind of a cake walk...nope.  I started out with 8lb weights and mid way through the second round switched to 5lb weights.

I think I paused through every exercise.  I didn't always do the holds.  Sweat was pouring off me. I have a 45min -1hr commute to work. I was asleep the entire time. 

Once again I loved that I was focusing on the lower half rather than top and bottom.


So my next weight goal is 349.  The prizes will be a new gym bag and t25...That's 15 lbs.  I don't see that happening this month, which means I'll be doing old videos...blah...

I did a preview of cardio fix....Burpees....Blah....

Updated...so I was sleepy and draggy all morning then hunger started to kick in, so ended up eating half a bagel with cream cheese and locks.  NSV I threw the rest in the garbage.   The bagel is my primary issue and according to calorie king it is 63 carbs.  I won't be eating any other carbs today, so I'm ok.  Curious what the scale will say tomorrow.

I feel better....so if the scale doesn't say anything crazy tomorrow I'll add toast in tomorrow. I might try and find some low carb bread...we'll see.

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...

Darn you to Heck Indian Food.

So yesterday I had lunch with my best friend.  She's smaller than me, but still heavy.  We went out to an Indian Buffet and I should have just ordered something from the menu, but I didn't want to spend to much since we were splitting the bill and had the buffet BAD MOVE.  It was all creamy sauce stuff which really begs to be poured over rice.  I was trying to pour it over the cauliflower dish, but that had potatoes in it.  I ended up just saying eff it and eating the cauliflower with a little potatoe.  Then my flawles logic *heavy sarcasm* said well if I'mma cheat go ahead and have the rice too.  I then had like 4 glasses of water.  I don't feel like I ate alot, the problem is I ate because of self peer pressure. I think of course wanted to punish myself and was going to make myself to a really hard workout today, but thought.  Ok I don't really want to do it...and I don't want to NOT workout because I don't want to do the work out.  ...
Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...
