Week 4: Day 5

Wow, today was tough. I knew it would be tough following through with P90 while my kids were on spring break. But it's proving to be harder than I thought. I tried to wake up early to get my Core Synergistic in. But we stayed up too late last night, so 6 am came way too soon. So, I told myself  I would do it this evening. I was gone all day with my kids. My eldest got her cast on then we went to our local museums. We got home about 6pm. At that moment I REALLY did not want to do my video. My husband was gracious enough to make dinner while I exercised. But I just couldn't seem to get up and go. I took a caffeine pill that the GNC sales guy gave me a few weeks back. But unfortunately, they take about 30 minutes to kick in. So, half way through the dvd I started to perk up. The Core dvd is a lot of push ups and lunges. The two things I hate the most and the two things my body cannot do very well still. I ended up getting through the dvd and burned 300 calories. Nothing amazing, but I did it.

My food was even more of a bit of a challenge. I made delicious muffins; banana and strawberry-orange. I was bummed because I was out of wheat flour. But they weren't too high in calories. I made bacon and had my coffee.  Lunch was the challenge. I didn't pack a lunch because mainly because we were going to a museum and they don't allow our own food. I purchased a chicken salad wrap. The wrap was made with a wheat tortilla, but it did not have nutrition info on it and it had a ton of mayo. I pulled more than half the chicken salad out of the wrap and just ate til I felt satiated. It was pretty good and had a lot of arugula in it. I just wish I had had an apple with me. I was able to bring it around at dinner. We had salmon, peas and bread. I am pretty sure I stayed within my 1500 calories, but I know the food was not the greatest. We are going to Sea World tomorrow, and we will for sure have to sneak in good food. I can't do another day of crap. 

I hope at least between all the walking we did today and the walking we will do tomorrow it will help with my measuring on Thursday. Tomorrow is Yoga at 6 am. Oh joy. =)
