So I have realized that most of my current problem stems from me being absolutely starving when I leave the gym. I will eat whatever is in the car, the diaper bag, plus much on things while I prepare lunch. I probably eat 200-300 extra calories this way. I am just so hungry after a 2 hour workout that I don't care.
So, I am thinking I need to eat a bigger breakfast. Most of the time I eat around 150-200 calories. An english muffin, a piece of toast or yogurt. I am not a big cereal person. I am thinking I need to eat a more, especially some protein. I am going to put pb on my Eng muffin and maybe cook an egg with my toast.
Yesterday I ate about 1650 calories. My downfall was 2 glasses of wine for 250 calories. Wine curbs my appetite and I was starving before dinner, so I thought it would tide me over. It did, but I still ate a normal dinner.
Today at the gym I did 30 minutes on the elliptical, 20 minutes on the treadmill with 3 minutes of sprinting, and 10 minutes on the bike. I rounded that off withe some abs, light arms, and stretching. On the way home I ate about 250 calories of crackers!!
Yesterday I also did the abs and arms section on my favorite pilates dvd while my son napped and we went on a 50 minute walk.
Breakfast - 150 - yogurt, 90 calorie skinny vanilla latte
Lunch - chicken salad - 200 (made with mostly plain lowfat yogurt and a little mayo. I liked it), crackers - 300
Dinner- A casserole of sometime. We will what I have time to make, as I still need to go to the grocery store.
