Ryan Day #10 8/22/2012

8:00 am - POM 1

I started the day with a long walk down the beach. It was over 45 minutes, probably closer to an hour but I really did enjoy it. I have been to beaches all over the world; Antigua, Aruba, Hawaii (all over Hawaii), all over south Florida (Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Key West, etc) and I believe that Jupiter Beach is the most beautiful beach I have ever been!

 

 11:00 pm - Meal 1

I had a 3 egg omlete with spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, and asiago cheese and a half a cup blueberries. I coukdn't wait till noon, I was way too hungry and it was really really good! I also drank coffee.

2:30 pm - POM 2 - Stength Training

I did a 25 minute work out video that focuses on strength training. I was going to go to a Bikram Yoga class this morning but I didn't get up in time. I used Jackie Warner's 30 Day Fast Start. I just did the portion on the arms and my arms feel like jello. She uses a pyramid format and its straight weights, good for men and women.

3:30 pm - Meal 2

I made baked pesto chicken with spinach, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes,and cover with cheese.

4:00 pm - Tea Time

I feel so proper when I have my 4:00pm tea time. I even raise my pinky while I'm drinking it... hehehe

6:00 pm - POM 3

I did laps for 30 minutes. I am a Florida girl through and though and I love to swim. It's like second nature to me. I love it because even when you are sweating you hardly feel it, the only way I know I'm sweating is I can feel my heart rate going up. I highly recommend swimming to anyone, especially if you have knee or back problems.

7:00 pm - Meal 3

I had a protein shake, I wasn't too hungry but I wanted to be sure to get some protein in as a last meal.
I also had a skinny cow snack bar.

Summary

So, I know I'm not supposed to weigh myself everyday. I think thats like part of the diet bible, any nutritionist or trainer will tell you not to weigh yourself everyday. Well, I am guilty. I weigh myself everyday, at the same time. Today I weighed myself and I lost 2 lbs, which just gave me more motivation to do better. I actually put a bikini on and I'm starting to see a difference. I feel so much lighter too. I also really like the mentality behind this program. I will post pics on Sunday and stats.
