ok today was long and tiring especially because i did not sleep well last night at all, and probbaly got 3-4 hours of sleep. definitely trying to fix that tonight.
ok gotta do this fast cuz i have a ton of work:
Breakfast: oatmeal (120), string cheese (70), red bull (10), total 200
Lunch: Spinach Salad with some pine nuts, some green apple, some feta and some bean sprouts w/ rasberry vinagrette dressing. I think it was about 250 calories.
Snack: Kashi Go Lean protein/snack bar 190 calories–>kind of a lot, hard to find low cal protein bars…any suggestions??
Dinner: I got to dinner write before the dining hall closed because I started my workout late.
Small cup of chicken tortilla soup-about 180. Some stir fry rice noodles with some soy sauce, tofu, carrots, broccoli and egg. i dont really know the calorie value but ill put it at 450. argh. thats high. i wish i had gotten to dinner earlier so i had more choice. and 1 sugar free jello, 10 calories, and a few M&Ms, arghh, but not more than 10-15. so thats good. i think ill also have half of a banana tonight so that will be 55 calories. might as well add that now….
Argh, thats a total of 1335 today. i think im gonna definitely have to find lower cal protein bars, and get to dinner earlier so i can get to the brown rice and chicken and salad bar. arg, thas 135 over my max. oh well,these protein bars are just too many cals. anyone know of protein bars that are 100 cals or less?!?
LAST EDIT OF THE NIGHT: ok so my evening snack didnt work. my friend came in and we shared a bag of 100 calorie popcorn, so i had 50 calories of that, but then when she left i had some M&Ms, id say around ~200 cal, which really sucks cuz i was already over my 1200 today. so needless to say im giving the M&Ms to my (super skinny) friend, who happens to be one of those, i dont understand why you are watching your foods type friends and therefore have to change my cals to 1530…ugh, i decided not to have the half of banana now because im so over! that is 330 calories more than my max. that really frusterates me because my weigh in day is in 2 days!!!!!!!!! also tomorrow night i have a meeting we’re im given some unknown dinner, so that already puts some annoying uncertrainty in my day. ugh. ok enough for tonight. hope tomorrow is a new and better day.
Workout today was good. i decided to mix up my plan a bit. ive been reading a bunch of places that cardio is not a very good fat/weight burner. so ive decided to try 45 min of cardio a day, and 35 of weight training a day which is what i did. does anyone have any opinion or thoughts on the idea that cardio does or doesnt help weight loss? or which type of exercise does? thanks!
ok off to do so much work before such a busy day tomorrow. i really hope to stick to the plan tomorrow! really gonna try to keep it under 1200!
