2 more lbs down!!!

Well, it's coming off and I must say I am noticing it, although I am working my butt off, literally! I was ecstatic as I stood on the scale this morning with just my birthday suit and a smile! When I see the numbers going down, it lifts my mood and tells me that I'm doing everything right, because when your trying something new you don't know if you're doing right, although I must say this is one of the more simpler plans that I've been on. I did tweak a few things the last couple of weeks, I did make my portions smaller, I think they were a little on the large side and I have been really consistent with my working out, especially the cardio fat burning part. I still lift weights but I have lenghthened my cardio segments. Also, I've selected a more lower calorie, lower fat options when it came to a lot of the food choices, e.g wraps they can be anything from 100 calories and some as high as 300 calories, so be very careful, just because it says wholegrain doesn't mean its low fat or low calorie. Also the cereals too, I switched out some better options there too.

Today, I fancied a burger, but don't worry I didn't drive the nearest fast food joint, I bought some super lean ground burger patties at the supermarket, they even had the health check on them, also a wholegrain roll, sliced tomato's, pickle and mustard, it was a pretty healthy tasty version of a yucky fast food rendition and it totally satisfied my cravings.

Down the hatch:-

Breakfast: 3/4 cup wholegrain cereal, 1/4 cup blueberries, skim milk, 1 tbs bee-pollen, 1 tbs flax seed, water & cup of coffee.

Lunch: wholegrain wrap with tuna, salad and water.

Snack: 2 brown rice cakes and 2 tbs nut butter, water.

Dinner: Yummy healthy version of a fattening classic. Lean ground beefburger Pattie, wholegrain roll, sliced tomato, garlic pickle, lettuce, water and cup tea.

Activity: 40 mins elliptical machine, 30 mins circuit weight training.

I hope you all have a great weekend, talk to you tomorrow.
