21 Day Plan: Day 2...I'm HUNGRY

Day 2 is OVER. It wasn't too hard. I was better prepared after going to the grocery store. If you have an Aldi near by it's the place to go. You'll save a ton of money.  Especially on produce. 

Same breakfast with the waffle and pb. Instead of preworkout I had coffee and added a splash of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and this super yummy syrup I found at Bed Bath & Beyond. It MAY not be great for me. I read the ingredients.  But it's better than the gas station coffee I was getting 4 times a week. And cheaper. 

Day 2 workout
Step ups w 15lbs 3 sets of 15 on each side
Squats with 15lbs x2 and 20lbs last set 15 reps each
Sumo squats w 30lbs 15 reps
Incline leg lift
Lateral leg lift with 7.5lbs last set 12.5
Bent leg lifts 12.5 last set 17.5
Thrust with 60lbs
Stiff leg dead lifts with 20lbs
10miles on bike start at level 4 and up a level every 2 miles. 

Lunch was leftovers from Monday. Spaghetti squash and sauce. I was still hungry like an hour later so I made another banana shake. Then I was still hungry so I ate an apple. It was a little apple. I promise. 

And then I was hungry again.  So I had another banana. With too much peanut butter. There's my weakness. The freakin peanut butter. 

Now here's where the real struggle came. I went to a basketball game and I usually have a sundrop and popcorn. It smells soooo good! Instead I threw an apple in my purse. Because I KNEW I would want SOMETHING. So while I watched my kids inhale Hershey's bars I drooled a little and then ate my apple.  (Yes this is the 4th fruit I had today. I SAID the apples were small.) It was okay. I tried to pretend it had chocolate on it. It didn't work. 


Dinner was one of my all time faves. Enchilada soup that I found a recipe for on Pinterest a couple years ago. That with some wheat crackers and sprinkled with cheese was perfect. 


Thennnnn I fixed my husbands lunch and had some of my trail mix since I I had it out to put in his lunchbox. Just a few tablespoons. I made sure to get a good amount of m&ms in there though. I'm not gonna lie about it.   

The day ended well.  As far as the scale goes this morning I'm down 3 lbs in 2 days. Not too shabby. 

The only thing that kept me from grabbing something quick and unhealthy today was knowing that I was being totally transparent and putting it on my blog. Maybe 5 people will read it. Maybe not. But it helps me hold myself accountable. 

On to Day 3.

  1. Following your journey as I try to motivate myself once again. Today is day 3 for me and I'm doing OK. The weekends are always harder for me.

    1. Yep! There is sooo much temptation on the weekends for me too! You can do it! Make your family do it too! I just try to remember you have to run 13 miles to work off 337 m&ms and ain't nobody got time for THAT!!!
