Insanity, Day 19: Cardio Power & Resistance

oh man.. poor performance today. was just tired. this is what a weekend of bad eating and skipping a work out does to you huh? i haven't been getting great sleep lately. I wake up at least once a night and I have dreams. Also today there was a stalled car on the 5, making my commute horrible and over an hour. In addition, I regrettably left my chocolates at home, so when I got home I binged on three pieces. would have been better off with just one... but I don't want them to spoil and they are so good!!!! :)

Food: berry hemp shake, 15ish oz veggie juice, asian pear, apple, 2 handfuls of nuts, mongolian bbq: veggies and tofu, hemp shake, fake meats from TJs, 3 pcs chocolate, soy shake. By the time I got home, which was after the hemp shake and before the fake meats, I didn't feel like eating anything at all; I had just spent 1.25 - 1.5 hours traveling 20 miles and downed the hemp shake in the car. But I thought I should have some protein so I ate the fake meats. Then I ate the chocolate. I really wish I had the discipline to not eat so much so fast. After lunch and after dinner (and dessert) my stomach hurt from being so full. I also feel like I ate a lot in quantity. I think if I spread out my food more, and ate more in the daytime I wouldn't feel so "guilty."

155g protein
100g carbs
30g fat

WHAT?!??!!?!?!

I just calculated this in calories. Did I do this right? Is that 1290 calories!?!??!! There is NO WAY that is 1290 calories. Granted those are estimates of protein, carbs and fat, but there is no way I feel this way (full) and am under eating. If I did underestimate, I could not have underestimated more than 150-200 calories TOPS. aldf;ladsjfldsj;flaj;fdjss Possibly the reason for my poor performance today?

low carb

random thought of the moment: this low-carb low-fat thing has me REALLY wanting a pbj sandwich. i should just eat one to get it out of my system.

Insanity, Day 18: Cardio Recovery

Yesterday I went to Mt. High, but didn't snowboard for long. ...And.. I missed my work out. eek! Weekends are tough. I have no problem putting good diet and exercise as a priority on weekdays, but weekends I tend to give in to chocolate (hey! It's Valentines Day!), starchy foods and playing Lumines on PSP rather than exercising. Gladly, Cardio Recovery isn't HIIT, although I'll admit it is quite a work out; I'm going to resolve to  not miss any more work outs and eat better, even on weekends.

My problem areas are still my tummy and thighs. It's so unbalanced. I can see my sternum to the point where it's gross at one point when I put my arms up to tie up my hair, but I still have this gut and my thighs are still rounder than I'd like. My arms are ok.. could use some improvement but I'm not worried about them. Ah, well, gotta keep at it.
