Piyo Challenge - Day 4

Well now..It's been a simple day. It started off late because I obviously had a late night due to school but it was a good day. By the time I got up I got a text from Marc asking me to choose the pit cause it was suppose to start raining. Oops. It already did. It was 11. Good thing he's a sweet heart and wasn't mad.

Breakfast snack was a Kind bar. Salt and dark chocolate I think. I'm blogging from phone because i nearly forgot today....so it's the photo...It was good. I enjoyed it and some juice. Later I had two hard boiled eggs. Which gives me gas really bad. Pretty sure it's the yolks. Think I cut that out and just go with the egg whites but I need the protein. Hmmm. I'll have to think on that.




After that I talked Piyo Sweat today which I adored. I couldn't believe it!!! This workout was bad ass!!! I was definitely getting my heart rate up. My polar hrm said 180 at two separate times. Intense it was. Yoda must do! :-) definitely felt the burn amd uncoordinated a bit at first but I caught on quickly. So glad I did. 36 minutes I burned 376 with an after burn going on to 466. I was happy.


On top of things. I weighed myself today and I've lost 5 lbs since my initial weigh in. Sadly...I started at 161 but shark week took me to 169 the first day ugh.. It usually takes me a long time to shed the shark week weight so I'm not sure if it's clean eating, piyo, or what getting me but I'm not bloated and I'm down weight so I'm happy. Currently at 164. We shall see how this pans out. I'm excited! :-)
I had the normal chocolate vegan pb2 shakeology number and later for lunch I had a lovely romaine lettuce, cracked pepper turkey, tomato, onion and lemon salad....nom nom.


I didn't do much today...I needed a break. I tried to get organized as I feel in everywhere...so going on. So much to do and so little time. So I watched tv and spent time with my honey.
For dinner I made baked bread crumbled chicken breast with sweet pair and broccoli. It was so good. And we had or last beer...talked about our meal planning fir next week, changes in food or if we want to with the same things etc. It's really all about team work. He's like me. We could eat the same things every day...but we to change it up too.



 Variety is good. Btw, found out..Punkin like sweet potatoes. Who knew?!


Oh and we checked out The Rocks page on becoming Hercules. That shit is crazy what he has to eat. Oh dear God. 12000 calories a day. Oh my!!

Total Bomb! Get Back In Gear!

Well, I ended up going on my trip for my residency and though I posted one day I did not post the rest. I did however workout one day in that trip because I was so busy with school work after the school day that time to workout was just not there. When I got back, I tried to get back into piyo and found that the week off from doing it killed me. I felt weak again and found myself discouraged. I had lost my motivation...and so did Marc. He was eating bad the entire time I was gone and I have to admit...there was dessert there that I ate...and I NEVER eat sweets...but I did. I paid for the meals there and at $1200 for a week...I was gonna get my monies worth. I found this interesting the other day... So, this is what has been going on. I got back....completed piyo...even though I did NOT feel good about it and felt I screwed that up....then decided to do ChaLEAN Extreme with Piyo...I loved it but I needed more cardio after piyo was done...so CLX and Insanity...okay good...

Piyo Challenge - Day 40

Woke up super early. I was freezing. But got going after some coffee. Today we had opening session and went to our groups.  Practiced counseling skills in groups of three and talked about it in class.  The class was only 18 people but a few were supposed to be in other classes so it's really less. Breakfast was nice and simple.  Buffet or made to order omelet.  I opted for simple. Eggs,  turkey sausage and bacon with coffee.  Lunch was good.  Not sure if you saw photos.  We had two breaks to where they kept trying to give us junk. We already got snacks from them. After class we had professional development with everyone.  There's 3 main groups of people.  One for each time people have been here.  But we were all together in professional development.  Went over degrees,  licenses and what we will be talking about this week. Then you had the option to stay and talk about licensing research etc and talk to licensing faculty....

Whew! I am tired and ready for bed but I will still do my post as promised... Today my day started late but thanks to Punkin...my snuggle bunny...kitty...I got up at 10:30... Had some coffee and two hard boiled eggs...I forgot to take a photo...so I improvised. ha! Enjoy! Its beautiful! Don't you think? I played on my phone a bit...which I shouldn't have considering I have tons of homework to do. But I then got on my reading for my Lifespan class. Easy read but too a bit. I got my research together for three posts today....which means I will have to really buckle down tomorrow to write them as two are due tomorrow and I want to complete my work by Thursday...that's my weekly goal! Plus I need to work ahead because my residency is in 10 days...I haven't bought my plan ticket or my room...and I have two classes...plus its 8-5 work when I am there all week...so, hoping to God I can work early and get it done..tis the plan at least. Top is me now. ...
