Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

Proud of myself. Woke up to see what kind of damage yesterday had done and the scale said 177.4 I will take it! My trainer will be proud that I didn't go overboard like I could have and deep down wanted to but chose not to. Since today is Sunday that means I got to enjoy my yummy rice flour pancakes!!! It is Mother's Day afterall and I am a fur mommy and had my fur kids wake me up with lots of snuggles and love

Wasn't sure couldn't ask they were so busy and won't let it happen again. I will make sure I take my own since I have a big purse to hit it in just didn't think to make any until after I smelled the popcorn....Trust me I feel bad and didn't want to own up to it but I decided it best if I do so.

Ok so yesterday felt really bloated and scale reflected it at 179.4 and today I feel less bloated (yay) and scale said 178 even. Glad to feel the bloating going away I was so miserable yesterday. Feeling super tired today and ready for a major pick me up!!!!! I have literally been fighting the urge to go back to bed

1/4c dry oats it is a give or take. I believe that round was 1c dry oats cooked in 4c water in the slow cooker and I just measured out 3/4c cooked and get about 4-5 servings

Ok I am back to tracking my meals on livestrong so won't be posting on here. Had a good day but can say I did get hungry. I did have a tsp of PB so I could take my supplements so they would absorb better Have a date set up with same guy on Friday. He is really growing on me. I was super tired today and ready for Sunday to get here because I am having a forced rest day due to traveling for graduation. Might get some playground time with my niece (I hope I hope I hope)

Cardio: 35 min walk with dog, 45 min step mill lvl 5 fat burner, no boot camp tonight was going to do an extra 45 on step mill but was worn out so decided against it.

177.2 so far so good! Today might be a bit of a struggle I am only going to get 1284 calories and only 101 g protein... Tomorrow will be better I go back up to 1550 I have to figure out what I am going to eat because well my stomach doesn't tolerate avocado and I am not a fan of raw tomatoes

I am used to a lot more. Was doing about 2100 for so long that more this deficit is keeps me hungry. I do better on 1550 days though

3lbs a week is alot to do. I have been only trying to do 2 lbs a week, and as you can see that can be a struggle for me. Though I do not have a trainer to answer to: so I am lax in the counting calories and macros.

I am also surprised to hear you say that you were worn out and did not do boot camp nor the stepmill! Way to go to the edge!

Remember to push yourself, but if you feel really fatigue, or if it goes all the way to symptoms of being sick, then make sure you baby yourself and get better! You are one that has learned how to listen to her body, so I won't talk to you about it too much (since I already have in the past LOL!).

oh i misread thought u meant it would be hard to reach up to that amount of cals..
