Today was cardio. Woke up with a headache and almost just stayed in bed. Glad I didn't. I ended up having a great workout.

I chose Amy Bento's In The Ring and really had fun with it. All her workouts have such great music in them. I did 4 boxing sections and only 3 of the intevals with the med ball. I ran out of time. This is one long workout but so fun.

CARDIO STATS:
60 minutes total
3 minutes below zone
16 minutes in zone
41 minutes above zone
494 calories burned

My workout this morning was Supreme 90 Cardio Challenge 41 min, 304 cal, Max hr 158. I then did a combo of 10 min solution with Amy, 5 Day Get Fit Fat Blasting Intervals, Hot Body Bootcamp cardio drills, and cardio segments 30 min, 254 calories, max hr 161. I finished with Shiva Rea Power Yoga Flow Chakra Namaskar segment. I like that one because it is a slower pace and really helps stretch everything. 22 min 97 calories. Total time today was 93 min and calories burned was 652.
I need to go get showered and into town to vote. I have to see if I can figure out something to get an estimate on the damage to my car from yesterdays accident.
Todays meals:
1- protein shake with Dymatize Pina colada whey, coconut water, almond milk, banana, pineapple, and coconut
2- white bean soup from Tony Horton's Bring it, salad
3-Beef stir fry from this issue of Oxygen magazine
4- berries with whey and kefir

Roselyn, that was some workout They are both the longest ones in that set. I did the ball workout after Back and Biceps last week but don't think I want to attempt the Chest shoulders, and triceps afterward. I don't think I would be able to go as heavy. With no rest those workouts are killer. I am doing Back and Biceps tomorrow and will probably add the ball workout again.

Debbie, I enjoy the music in Amy's workouts. It makes them fun Nice calorie burn.

So once again I made a recipe from Oxygen. I compared their nutritional value with mine and there is like a 200 calorie difference! WTH? Theirs says its 500 calories a serving (which is high in my book) and I'm coming up with 357.5 calories. How can they advertise this wrong information all the time? I just don't get it.

That recipe was good, by the way. I overcooked it so I'll know next time to only cook it about 25 minutes instead of 35 minutes. It was the chicken and sweet potatoe stick meal.


Diane Sue - Why was there a crazy woman going after you yesterday? What happened?

Debbie, we have a 4 way stop light at the main intersection of our town. I stopped and was partway through the intersection. I saw the lady slow like she was stopping and then she just came at me. she caught my back wheel and back fender. She obviously was not paying attention.
I haven't done that recipe. I wonder sometimes about recipes because packaged ingredients can be different, but the clean eatinging recipes are mainly clean unprocessed ingredients so it does not make sense. I just made a soup from Tony's book and a lot of his recipes say makes 4-6 servings?? He doesn't give macros though. Claims he doesn't count calories. His recipes are clean too. This soup took much longer than I thought it would.
I also wonder about the recipes in Clean Eating that say 15 minutes. The only way that I could see that happening is if the fresh ingredients are already chopped and measured. Most of them seem to be good. I have to adjust a lot of the recipes because when they call for rice, pasta, quinoa etc I generally lower the amount of that ingredient and sometimes make up with more veggies and protein.

Good on calories, protein and fat. Have to lower my carbs but I guess that won't happen until next week. This is what sweet potatoes does to my carb totals and I love sweet potatoes. I know I'm eating a lot of fruit but refuse to give them up. I'll figure it out next week.
