okay i will join you. last week was 4 clean out of 7. good start this morning; egg beater omelet with ff cheese and turkey bacon. good luck the rest of the day!!
I had my official weigh in since vacation. It looks like I gained about a pound over last week. Could still be water since I am just this morning officially off TOM. Will drink the water and contine the cleaner eats, hopefully seeing a decrease next week.
Yesterday's tally was low in calories due to not being hungry.
Cals: 1,042
F: 18% (Sat: 9%) Need to work on the saturated! New guidelines say <7%.
Cb: 59% Need to get this back to < 55%
P: 24%
Fiber: 12g
H20: 48 oz. Need to get this back up to at least 72oz, which is doable.
I'm a glutton for punishment. Let me try this again.
no more than 1400 cals/day with more than 30% protein
100 minutes weights
60 minutes walking
60 minutes biking
60 minutes gardening (I've got some dirt to move)
Whoops! I slipped up and ate 3 biscuits at work! I don't know how I managed it AT ALL! They just fell into my mouth! I went to have 1, then the next thing I know, I'm eating a 3rd! BAH! I don't think I'll be too bad on calories, and I'll factor them in so that I don't have too bad a day, but jeez! What is with me?
Still going to have a nice healthy dinner tonight and I DID go to the gym at lunch and attempt some pullups, so can't be all bad!
I'm starting my day 3 of clean eating. Last week was vacation, and since others were in charge of food, I had to eat what I was given--there were a few meals where there was nothing clean!!! I have dropped 1 of my vacation pounds since Sunday!!
yesterday:
1134 calories
28% fat
33% carb
22% protein
18% alcohol (that darned wine again!--I'm going to abstain today.)
I left home this morning without my water bottle or my lunch!!! Aargh!! My car is in the shop getting new tires, and if it is done before lunch, I can run home and pick up my lunch. Otherwise what will I do????
Ilene, I have a question. My DD wants to try protein drinks, her trainer suggested whey protein. What kinds do you (or anyone else who uses these) recommend? We're going to go shopping this weekend and I know we'll be confronted with a large selection to choose from.
Thanks!!!
okay lunch was healthy; lean flank steak sandwich and carrots and cucumbers. snack =chocolate darn it!!!! still noit bad on calories. dinner was pot roast with potatoes and carrots. calories are around 1400 right now. tomorrow will be better!!! oh yeah, exercise was 25 min. on treadmill at 3.0 speed and 2.0 incline. excellent for me!!
Wednesday's tally ....
about 1100 cals 32% protein
15 minutes weights
22 minutes walking
0 minutes biking
90 minutes gardening and I haven't moved all the dirt.
Total 1931 - not BAD but not great either, I'm counting it as a high zig zag day. I did eat those bloomin biscuits though, and a little ice lolly slipped in at 83 kcals F 31% (bit high!) C 49% (ok) P 20% (a little low)
I was waiting for a grocery delivery for my tea, but I was getting hungry and he was later than expected so I had to have a slice of quiche for tea which was all that was left in the house!
Today I've had raspberries and cottage cheese and strawberries for breakfast, snack is fromage frais with raspberries and pears and banana, lunch is chicken stir fry with lots of veggies and brown rice, afternoon snack is turkey pitta with salad. I'm feeling healthy today!
Again my calories are lower than I like, but I just haven't been hungry. Possibly due to too much food last week on vacation, and it's just too dang hot! I've been eating salads (no meat) for dinner this week which are good, but not high calorie food without the meat.
Cals: 1,058
F: 15% (Sat: 6%)
Cb: 57%
P: 21%
Fiber: 14g
H20: ONLY 36 oz. (ugh! - I just didn't drink much either. The only other beverage I had all day was 8oz of 1% milk with dinner)
today's been pretty good. high fiber cereal and fruit for breakfast. veggies and sandwich for lunch. apple and wheat thins for snack. lastly, chicken with teriyaki sauce and rice for dinner. exercise was 2 mile WATP and 25 min. on treadmill. calories are about 1550 right now.
Wednesday (19th) to Tuesday (25th) Week of clean eats challenge!
This week I'm aiming for at least double that!
I don't know how I managed it AT ALL! They just fell into my mouth! I went to have 1, then the next thing I know, I'm eating a 3rd! BAH! I don't think I'll be too bad on calories, and I'll factor them in so that I don't have too bad a day, but jeez! What is with me?
... arghh....
F 31% (bit high!) C 49% (ok) P 20% (a little low)
