+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Slept in LATE.
Staying at my moms house for the past 3 days can really mess with my eating schedule. There is hardly any food here but junk. My fault btw, for not packing enough food.
I ate junk here and there, and this moring when I woke up...I felt no change in my body. I'm just bloated, whether it's a pound that I gained. Oh well...I can totally get back in my groove and workout.
Yeah, all for now.

Day 10
Meal:
7am- 1/3 oats and 4 egg whites with cinnamon and stevia
10am- Arnold Sandwich thins and 1 tbsn white chocolate PB
coffee
*crap, I need water...
1pm- 85g of veggie mix (broccolli, red bell pepper, snow peas, onion), 1/2 brown rice, lite cheese, salsa, 85g shrimp.
4pm- one small cutie (mangarin), one medium orange, one scoop myofusion protein with water.
7:15pm- weak McD's side salad (leafy greens, 3 tomatos, slices of carrots) with a salmon patty, veggie mix, lite cheese, and salsa. mmmm delcious. The salmon patty is de-li-cious!! it's soooo flavorful
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Mannnn, after day 3 of this whole "diet" challenge, it seemed to go by smoothly, and for some reason, I am struggling. I think due to the lack of motivation and mood I have been in. I have been so moody and emotional, which results in desiring comfort from food (hellllooo emotional eating) I want the ice cream and the nutter butter!
Yesterday I almost got pizza, because I had a frustrated day! I come to my moms house and see a nutter butter and was thinking about eating just ONE, but I know it would result in TWO.
I don't think it's wrong to necessarily indulge in one of those things, but I don't want to feel deprived. I think there needs to be a difference in distingushing WHY I want those items. For instance, I went through a few rational reasons, and found that I wanted to eat the nutter butter because I had a horrible morning. I did poorly on a quiz which I was not prepared for, as a result a nutter butter would make me happy!
eckckk!
But it's different when my mom comes home with carne asada quesdilla with guacamole and salsa. She asked if I wanted some, and I said "ew, no!" haha. I LOVE mexican food. I don't know what point I am trying to make with this one.....
But what I said earlier about feeling deprived...it's so easy for feelings to change. At that moment I felt deprived and wanted a feeling of happiness...but after I came to conclusion to all this mess, my feelings changed towards food for that splt second. I no longer needed food to make me feel good, so there fore I didn't feel deprived?
Plus, I also thought about how that food would make me feel. Greasy Quesdilla = bloated, gassy, yucky, moody.
Nutter Butter = bad sugar crash and bloat! hard effort gone to waste. But it's sooo good!
Gosh I am sooo confusing, it makes sense in my weird little brain.
Incase you were wondering, no, I did not have that nutter butter or that quesdilla. woot! self-control, will!
DAMN! 2 and a half more weeks.

Day 9
9:30- 1/3 oatmeal and 4 egg whites with cinnamon and stevia, a tad of PB
1:00- two rice cakes with 1 tbsn white chocolate PB
*this was after an appointment and I didn't have protein powder, I was lazy due to the fact I was in a hot car. poor excuse!
4:00- small cutie (tangerine)
4:30pm- 1/2 cup brown rice, 85g shrimp, 90g cabbage, lite cheese, salsa
*late lunch because I had a doctors appointment
[An orange somewhere between]
8:30pm- 85g shrimp/85g cabbage, lite cheese, salsa, and 100 cal arnold sandwich thins.
11pm- 2 arnoldsandwich thins and PB
** I was definately skipping ALOT of my meals and eating way OFF schedule. AT times I would not eat til 4-5 hours after my last meal or skip the most vital part of my meals. Which resulted in eating PB and Arnold thins. I think it could've been A LOT worst!
I went to Costco and almost bought pizza, soooo glad I didn't! uhhmmm, and I think I added like a tablespoon more of the recommended fat, but then I didn't have enough protein for today at all, or carbs (it seems)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I have been really moody today. I lost my patience many times and tried not to cry. Something is up with me, I need to clear the air. *breathe. I need to breathe.
Cardio tonight. Thank goodness it's only cardio today because my mind cannot handle trying to get through a grueling workout.

Day 8
Meal:
10am- 1/3 oats with cinnamon/ 4 egg whites with cinnamon, stevia, and dash of unsweetened cocoa powder. Topped with 1 tbsn of white chocolate peanut butter. delicious! organssssmic!
12:30- two rice cakes with 1 tbsn (16g) of white chocolate peanut butter and protein powder with water
3:30- 1/2 cup brown rice, 5oz chicken breast, 85g cabbage, salsa, lite cheese.
7:15- 1 scoop protein powder with water and one tangerine.
*edit 7:56- I feel so out of it! bleghhh, going to the gym now. bye
Today is rest day from the gym, but I might consider going after my 10pm class tonight! considering I went to the gym per-late as usual at 10:30pm last week. I think I get a good work out from an almost-empty gym anyways.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Last night I attempted to go to Costco to buy a bulk of eggs, chicken, and veggies, but they were closed. I hate getting their hours mixed up! don't I learn? considering I go there every week.
So I went to Henry's and got organic omega 3 eggs, cayenne pepper from bulk, sweetened shredded coconut, two jars of peanut butter. It came out to be less than $10.
The peanut butters were "buy one, get one free" hell yeah! considering they were PeanutButter&Co, they ran out of chocolate dreams *tear, but I got white chocolate and cinnamon raisin swirl. You can see chunks of raisins! it's not just that artificial flavor bologne!

Day 7! one week!
Holy cow! yessss one week has passed. My meals have been sporadic usually. I follow the nutrition plan accordingly to the magazine (thought not to a T), though on days where I do not have chicken breast, I opt for shrimp. On day's where they suggest yogurt or whey protein, I skimp out on. Well, last night I skimped out on dinner. I was just too tired and fatigued. And this morning when I woke up, I was soooo hungry.
Dinner last night was supposed to be 5oz chicken breast with >~85g sauteed spinach and a wrap. But no, instead I opted for a wrap with ~1tbsn of peanut butter. I am supposed to have 2tbsn of PB a day, so I fullfilled THAT requirement.
I forgot what time I ate what yesterday :o(
Meal:
8:30- 1/3 oats with cinnamon and 125g egg whites
11:30- two rice cakes with 1tbsn of almond butter and protein powder mixed with water
(GYM)- Did upper body circuits
3:30pm (late lunch)- > 85g shrimp with 85g cabbage, 1/2 brown rice, salsa, and lite cheese. Delicious!
6:30- Cafe Miso non-fat with 2 pumps of dark chocolate cherry and a yogurt (ran out of whey)
(GYM AGAIN!)- Power Yoga
9:30- 100 calorie flat-wrap with 1tbsn of peanut butter
Workout
I did upper-body circuit.
Did four sets of
1) Barbell chest press
2) Barbell shoulder press
3) Wide grip Lat pull
4) DB curls
5) Triceps extension
After I was done, I did 3 sets of jump-ropes! intense!
After each circuit, I was spinning for 5 minutes. No rest what-so-ever. I was completely fatigued after each circuit, I started out with doing 30lbs for shoulder press and towards the fourth circuit, I couldn't even do 20lbs!
Then I showered, did a few errands, saw my dad, and then went to yoga with Addison and Seita.
It was intense, I was sweating slightly! We worked more on lower body and I LOVED the stretches!!!
Status for circuit:
Duration: 1 hour and 16 minutes
Heart Rate: Max 98% and Average 76%
Calories: 629 cal and 40% burned
Wahoo! I felt like I did not give that workout my ALL, I struggled with keeping my form because I was so tired. But I felt great. I love how my HR watch can tell me how hard or lazy my work-outs are, it pushes me to do harder.

Day 6
Holy cow, almost been a week! yessss! 3 more weeks to go.
Because of springing forward, I woke up embarrassingly late. Which called for a late breakfast. I ran out of egg, so instead I used what was left in my egg white carton.
Meal:
11:30am- 1/3 oatmeal with cinnamon and walden farms calorie free apple butter spread & 156g of carton egg whites.
2:00- 42oz diet dr. pepper and medium coffee (small amount of creamer and stevia)
3:00- one flat out wrap with 4oz chicken breast/ 85g cabbage with braggs amino acids and cayenne pepper/ lite cheese and salsa.
6:11- strawberry protein powder with water (ran out of whey) and a banana.
* during this time, hunger just hit me out of no where! I love how my body is starting to become responsive to the fact that I need to eat every 2.5-3 hours.
8:30pm- one flat-out wrap with lite cheese and salsa. 4oz chicken breast and 85g cabbage.
I have a headache. Today is cardio day only- thank goodness! I am doing 45-one hour of cardio tonight, for now I am just going to rest and sleep off this headache. I feel like I am wasting my day doing so, but I don't want to go about with the rest of the day with a headache. Screw springing forward! I want my hour back!
My legs are sore from last night, my calves especially. I forgot to mention I did 4 sets of rotary calves with 70lbs of plates, with the rep of 15-20-15-20 last night.
