kitchen bitch gets her sexy back DAY 4

today was ok. i did start the food journal again, like i said i would. it's better when i write everything down, because that way i feel guilty if the cookies or bread {i LOVE toast at night lol} start calling my name at odd hours. 


for my workout today, i did the fat blasting circuit that i did on day 2. it went pretty good, and i still have lots of energy. i know i will be feeling it tomorrow though. 


my sister pulled through with her promise to bitch at me every day to work out. it's actually kind of funny. i was about to take my pre-workout supps {i take them 30 minutes to  1 hour before working out} when i saw her slightly bitchy, totally hilarious post on my wall. i will never be able to miss a day now.. what have i gotten myself into??


anywho, here is my intake today:
8:30- protein & supps
8:45- coffee, 2 sugar
10:50- coffee, 2 sugar
11:30- pasta, chicken, spinach, w/hot sauce {all of that shit mixed together = YUM lol}
12:05- coffee, 2 sugar
1:15- coffee, 2 sugar
2:20- post-workout protein & supps
3:10- coffee, 2 sugar
4:05- coffee, 2 sugar
4:20- i cup basmati rice, 1 mini-burger {homemade} on homemade flax roll w/ spinach and a dab of mayo
5:15- coffee, 2 sugar
5:40- coffee, 2 sugar
6:00- coffee, 2 sugar
7:00- ham sandwich on whole wheat w/ spinach {lol i'm a spinach freak!!}
    - small bowl of doritos


hmmm... seems i get most of my calories from the sugar in my coffee. and i did eat really crappy. but grocery day is coming soon, and as always, we're running low on some things. so i am kind of limited as to my choices. next week, maybe i will try splenda.. hopefully it won't kill me or make me radioactive. another thing to put on the shopping list is quinoa, chia seeds, and steel cut oats. THEN i'll really be able to clean up my diet. 


see yas tomorrow!!

kitchen bitch gets her sexy back DAY 2

whew. day 2 was a killer. 


today for my workout, i did this fat blasting circuit from oxygen magazine. it was nowhere near as intense as what i'm used to with insanity, and i didn't get any nausea. to be honest, i almost felt that it was too easy. at first. right now? omg, i can feel EVERY fucking muscle i worked, and i'm beginning to get stiff. looks like i have another date in the tub with stephen king. 


here is a breakdown of what i did:

• run in place, 30 steps
• body weight bulgarian squats, 15 reps each leg
• jumping jacks, 20 reps
• standing hammer curl, 15 reps each arm
• step ups, 10 reps each leg
• push ups, 15 reps {incline push ups for 2nd circuit}
• run in place, 30 steps
• side plank, 20s each side
• jumping jacks, 20 reps
• front raise, 15 reps {lateral raise for 2nd circuit}
• step ups, 8 reps each leg
• one-armed seated row, 15 reps each arm
• run in place, 30 steps
• walking lunge, 15 reps each leg
• jumping jacks, 20 reps
• bench dips, 15 reps
• step ups, 8 reps each leg

after all of that, i rested for 2 minutes and did it again {with the changes noted for the 2nd circuit}. 

afterwards, i was sweaty but not out of breath and exhausted, like i'm used to with insanity. i had tons of energy and even considered asking BF if we could up the intensity. now, i know better. i'm glad he helped me create this program, because it's hard to do a completely exhausting super workout every goddamned day. this circuit doesn't exhaust me, but i can tell that i've worked. i like it.

tomorrow is rest & recovery day. i'm still going to do my food journal, but not much else. 

here is my intake for day 2:

8am- protein & supps

9am-coffee, 2 sugar

9:25- coffee, 2 sugar

      chocolate chip cookie

11:05- coffee, 2 sugar

11:45- scrambled eggs & sausages

       supps

12pm- coffee, 2 sugar

12:45- coffee, 2 sugar

2pm- slice of cheese

     1 cup pineapple juice

4:30- post-workout protein & supps

5pm- peant butter cookie

6:30- spaghetti and meatballs with cheese

      {approx. 1 cup}

      coffee, 2 sugar

7pm- coffee, 2 sugar

8pm- coffee, 2 sugar

8:30- coffee, 2 sugar

ok, so i went a little coffee crazy today.. but it's still TONS less than usual, seeing as how writing down helps me to drink less. 

that's it for today. thank god tomorrow is r&r day, because i am fucking tired and sore.
