I'm always glad when Mondays roll around. I know it sounds a little strange--most people kind of hate Mondays. I like them because it's nice to know that I can get back on track with my eating and exercise.
Exercise Report:
Kevin's class was good today but I wish I would have pushed myself a little harder. We worked with kettle bell weights again and I had a hard time lifting them with correct form (which is very important by the way--never attempt to use them on your own for the first time!). We did presses with them and we also did dead lifts with burpies. We did some squats too. I was so focused on trying to use correct form that I didn't set a goal for myself of how many sets I wanted to accomplish.
Eating Report:
1/2 Kashi granola bar
3 pieces of sauteed chicken
1piece of low carb bread with peanut butter, 3 drops of honey, and cinnamon
1/2 cup white beans
1 string cheese
handful of pistachios
1/4 cup cooked white rice
2 cups stir fry (included carrots, onions, celery, tofu, and sauce)
The sauce in my stir fry has quite a bit of sugar, so I tried to not use very much. Overall, I think it was a good eating day.
Food tip:
Tofu is so great and serves so many purposes when it comes to food. You can cook it in a stir fry, blend it with strawberries for a high protein shake, or eat it plain as a snack. I didn't love it the first time I tried it, but I really like it now and my kids are starting to like it a lot more too.
