Week 2: Day 4

Today was Yoga and today was sucky. I really hate the yoga dvd. It is so long and so difficult and so uncomfortable. I need to ask some fellow P90 graduates and get their feedback on the yoga. Because at this point I am tempted to go back to other videos until I am more flexible. It is a very discouraging video.

I did, however, really well with the Meal Plan today. I am not a fan of eggs or oatmeal. So that makes the Meal Plan for breakfast tough. I found a cereal from Cascadian Farms (it's Organic). It is granola with raisins, cranberries, sunflower seeds and almonds in it. A serving with milk was 250 calories. It is very tasty and very filling. The only puzzle piece I was missing was protein. So, I will have to figure that out. Maybe I will have to add turkey bacon or Canadian bacon to the meal next time. For lunch I had a delicious salad. I made it with romaine lettuce, spinach, cutie orange, a sliced strawberry, turkey and ham. My dressing was balsamic vinegar, orange juice (fresh squeezed from my cutie) basil and thyme. I also had a cup of Red Pepper and Tomato soup along with a slice of whole wheat toast. It was a very satisfying lunch and only 400 calories. For dinner I had tacos-about 600 calories. And I had to sneak in a dark chocolate brownie(160 calories). It was small and so worth it. My calorie intake goal is 1500 calories a day. That's lower than the P90X Meal Plan, but I am convinced his calorie intake is set up for a man.

I am hoping by the end of this week I will see some progress. I have not measured myself. I weigh myself everyday but I fluctuate 1-2 pounds daily, so until I see 2 or 3 pounds stay away I will not get excited. Until tomorrow.
