Lazy Day Off

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. It rained most of the day here so mine consisted of Ruby Tuesday's and movies. Which on a day off that is exactly want I want. Sometimes nothing is better than curling up in a blanket and watching movies all day. So today I don't really have much to share.

Day 141:
Breakfast: skip ( I ate a super early lunch)
Lunch: Ruby Tuesday (grilled bbq chicken, salad bar and a side of spaghetti squash with marinara sauce)
Snack: I made a cauliflower pizza that I snacked on during a couple of my movies
Dinner: Skinny Turkey Sausage and Pepper pasta (recipe on May 29, 2013 post)

Week 5 Workout 3
Elliptical 20 minutes on fat burning level
Arms and Abs workout 30 minutes

Day 142:
Post workout smoothie: strawberries, 1 small banana, flax seed, fat free sugar free cheesecake jello, light soy milk, 2 ice cubes
Breakfast: 2 eggs
Snack: 1 small black plum and edamame
Lunch: Skinny Turkey Sausage and Pepper
Snack: non fat yogurt with 15 almonds
Dinner: since our normal Thai placed has been closed for the week we were starting to go in withdrawals :). So went went to a different. I will def. say the other place is still my favorite. I had chicken and veggies in a sauce that I think was a little too thick and made me nervous how much sugar I was eating.

Killer Workout

I wanted to share my workout this morning because it literally kicked my rear. Now I wouldn't do this unless you are ready to break a sweat and don't mind doing tons of jumping jacks. So here you go!

 

Week 5 Workout 2

 

I started off with sprinting on the treadmill to warm up for 2 minutes. Then I moved to my little area of the gym where not many people are and pulled out my list and got started.

 

 

I don't think I have ever done so many jumping jacks in my entire life but they definitely kept my heart rate up. Now at the bottom when it says incline pull ups I decided to change it to crunches. (not going to lie at this point I was beat)

Afterwards I went and did the elliptical for 20 minutes changing the level from high to low, low to high and going forwards for 5 minutes and backwards for 5 minutes etc.

 

This is for sure a workout I will do again because it got me moving and my shirt and face was drenched with sweat. (best feeling ever)

 

Now since tomorrow is the 4th of July I probably won't be posting but I will include my workout and food journal in my post on Friday.

 

I hope everyone has a very happy and safe 4th of July.
