genniferal Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 day 1 - 1/2/12 ate:mac and chreese2 pieces of apple pie2 pieces of chocolate tofu piebowl of tomato/chili pepper soupbowl of cream of broccoli soup supps/vitamins:creatine (1 tsp)probiotics through coconut milk kefiraloe water shot workin' out:6 minute treadmill warmup (avg 4.5 pace)3 sets of 2 minute wallsits (with an unknown weight medicine ball)15 minutes stairclimbing (~74 floors)50 crunches10 assisted dips5 assisted chinups5 assisted pullups~30 weighted calfraises thoughts: i ate like crap, obviously this is something i've been struggling with forever. i'd really like to start eliminating wheat again - at least switching over to spelt. i also ate NO greens which i've been so good about keeping up on daily. my workout was successful but it took a lot of motivating to get myself there. having to work instead of practice was most definitely the majority of what made me go. and the apple pie my dad had for me afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Thanks for creating a journal on here! It is a great way to track what you're eating, how you're training while being aware of it and able to make changes. I wish you all the best with your goals for the new year. All the best and welcome aboard! -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

genniferal Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 day 3 1/4/12 ate:granola w/rice milk and coconut milk kefir and peanut buttertempeh, lettuce, tomato, guac, daiya sammich w/ yam fries and red pepper souphandful of tingsvegan kungpao chicken w/ swiss chard over ricevegan trailmix oatmeal cookie1/2 glass of wine supps/vitamins:probiotics through coconut milk kefir1 tsp creatine workin' out:2 hour long derby practice - 2nd half was scrimmage with a great deal of downtime thoughts: again, could not motivate myself to get to the gym even though i really wanted to go. (to be fair, pms doesn't help!) my hamstrings are really sore which is strange because i don't think i've ever had sore hammies! im going to try to go to the gym after work tomorrow now that i know they are open until midnight m-th. i really need to get on my kettlebell and/or do some pullups at home if i'm having trouble getting myself out of the house. i registered for my first half marathon in october! im excited to run/walk it! it's the detroit one, so i'll be popping through good ole canada and look forward to the scenery more than the run!

genniferal Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 day 4 1/5/12 ate:oatmeal with pb, brown sugar, and choc chipslemon seitan picatta frozen candle cafe mealtempeh, red chard, garlic, onion, shitake mushrooms sesame seeds, braggs, turmeric over short grain brown rice1/2 glass of wine supps/vitamins:1 tsp creatine2 tbsp flax oil workin' out:6 minute treadmill warmup avg ~4.5mph varied inclines3 sets of one minute 25lbs weighted wallsits50 crunches10 pushups on the bosu and some stablizing in between.20 minutes stairclimbing interval training (70 relax, 90 work) ~99 floors total thoughts: ate really late, prolly not the best idea but i got off work at 10:30pm and went straight to the gym. i was starving after the gym so i wanted something more substantial than just snacks. but i put together a bomb gourmet meal loaded with protein. was really pleased with my wallsits. i've come to notice that if i can stand out of a wallsit i've probably not pushed myself hard enough. however i need to be wise about them because i generally do them before i climb stairs. wish i would have done more upper body but it was late and the gym was closing so i rushed through.
