W4 -The Weigh In

Breakfast: 1 cup of Activia Yogurt
Lunch:1 slice of Turkey, 3 spears of asparagus, 5 Grapes, 3 halves of biled egg (egg white only)-- I ate this while I was at the 30th Street garage, Rudy helped me to pick what to eat.
Snack:1/2 bowl Chicken Pho
Dinner: Filet Mignon Lettuce Wraps (red oniions, cilantro, red bell peppers); three bites of Shrimp Pad Thai (1 Shrimp only)

I did my Crunch Pilates DVD, but this time I did all three workouts.

10 mins abs
10 mins butt
10 mins thighs

Definitely not as intense as Rudy's workouts, but a few of the moves are definitely hard to sustain and I think it really is helping my abs. a few of the moves are similiar to what we do with Rudy.

So... the Weigh-In!

I weigh 134 (my initial weight was 136, but my scale at home said 140), so I lost two pounds. I lost 2% bodyfat, b ut Saleem told me that Sal said the machine was acting up, so it is possible I may have lost more!. I lost inches everywhere except for my calves. I was shocked that I lost close to two inches around my shoulders and almost two inches around my waist, 2 inches above and 2 inches below the belly button! So... progress!

I am going to try really hard to follow the food rules. Food with a face for dinner, no carbs after 7pm. Complex carbohydrates, no simple carbs. I gotta go to Trader Joes to pick up some Ezekiel cereal. I actually remember that because Rudy said something like, "You hang with Jesus, so that should be easy for you to remember." I laughed, but had to through in, "Well Ezekiel is Old testament, Jesus doesn't show up until the new testament. But here is a dove that symbolizes peace and the Holy Ghost, so... I'll remember it." I was just being a little silly, but I actually did help me to remember.

Oh also portion size is going to be a big one for me to become more disciplined on... Rudy Showed me a medium/large mug and said that what could fit in there would be my portion size for my meals. OH MY GOODNESS! I think I'm going to be hungry but I'm going to try to eat more often and more quality so I am always satisfied.

I am really excited to hear how everyone else is doing. If you are reading my blog and in the program, please leave a comment, I'd love to know!
