I woke up this morning at 5:30AM to do my day 2 of Brazil Butt Lift, but as I was getting ready I heard Caroline crying so I had mommy duties to attend to. We snuggled on the couch most of the morning, so I'm sure she woke up due to working on cutting her last 3 molars. I see them poking white through her gums, so I know she is hurting.
I made her her usual waffles for breakfast and I made my McMuffin. I think I will only be making a McMuffin on days I work out in the morning and doing something different on days I wait til around lunch time. It'll help me do better with my points. So the McMuffin was 8 points.
Then I had my usual chewy bar as a morning snack and that was 3 points.
For lunch I switched it up and I had 2 oz. of tuna fish mixed with light mayo, yellow mustard, and sweet relish on toasted wheat bread. This was only 5 points! I had my usual fat free chocolate pudding cup and decided to have a banana as well. This was 2 points. So my lunch total was 7 points.
I put Caroline down for a nap and decided to work on my Brazil Butt Lift day two. Today was Cardio Axe and High and Tight. I was able to get through half of the Cardio Axe before Caroline was up from her nap upset again. So I made her lunch and continued the rest of the Cardio Axe. I wasn't able to get to High and Tight yet, but I am planning to do that after she gets to sleep.
For my afternoon snack, I had a Rice Cake which was 2 points. Then when Phil got home I decided to go out for a run. This was around 3:30pm. I put Caroline in the stroller and I went out and did the Chubby Jones podcast. I'm still on Week 1. It was a lot harder in the earlier afternoon and pushing a stroller. By the end of it I was beat!
I started dinner and I made Chicken Enchiladas and spanish rice. I need to find a better recipe for these two things. One Enchilada is 9 points! UGH, I should have figured it out before I bought stuff to make it. It's Phil's favorite, so I am hoping to find a better recipe. So I had 2 Enchiladas (I know I know) because I was starving for some reason. So that was 18 points plus I had 1/2 cup of rice so that was 3 points. So together my dinner was 21 points. YIKES! This is where the good thing about activity points and cheat points comes into play. All together by the end of the day after I do High and Tight, I will have made 8 activity points which covers all of my dinner. So I won't feel as bad and I might actually have some 1 point kettle corn while watching some tv after my workout.
At the end of the day, I will have worked out 1 hour and 30 minutes today, woo! I also have drank 71 FL OZ of water today which is a HUGE first for me. I cut out diet soda today too. I feel great.
Recap:
Total points used: 42 (possibly 43 after my kettle corn)
Total activity points made: 5 (8 after high and tight)
If I use my activity points I will be at: 35 points :)
So even though I indulged a little at dinner I am still doing well, at least that is what I'm telling myself to make me not feel as guilty. :) Tomorrow's a new day.
Sounds like you're doing great! You're probably starving because of the exercise, it makes you hungry. if you make sure you're getting enough protein and healthy fats in your meals you'll stay full longer. Especially if you make sure your breakfast and lunch are most substantial meals, you hopefully won't feel to starved by dinner. I think there is a list on the internet somewhere of zero WW point vegetables, you could keep some on hand for snacking during the day. veggies are good for you! Lots of nutrients your body needs for fuel!
