Last week, I started precooking my meals for the week with my NuWave oven. Each day, my lunch was 6 onces of blacken chicken, grilled bell peppers of a bed of lettuces, fresh bell peppers, cranberries, chickpeas, and low-fat vinaigrette dressing and my dinner was shakeology with a small banana. The first couple of days were very hard. I had cravings and wanted to eat more than what I had prepared. I snacked on raw almonds, carrots, celeries. However, I was committed to sticking to this plan; and by the fourth day, I started to get used to the routine. I was not as hungry between meals….yay!!!.....I also completely cut half&half from my coffee, using Almond milk instead!
B – My body is feeling stronger. I can jump higher! I am able to jog/run 3k in my neighborhood. I still need to work on my pushups. LOL. I am beginning to love doing pushups, just not good at it yet. Also I noticed that I have better postures now, especially my back!
L – Besides preparing my meals, I learned to use substitutes like Turkey/oat meals for healthier meals. I am beginning to read ingredients as well as calories, when possible, on my food now. I am spending more time at the grocery now. LOL. I actually enjoyed cooking!
O – My Oh-Yeah moment: Had Panera Bread for dinner last night: caught myself reading the calories on the menu….ordered a salad with less than 500 calories!!!!
G – My main goal is to continue with meals prepping, which I just prepared for this week J. I also need to come to the WORX more.
on to week #4!
