Healthy Journey Day 148

Gratitudes:  Sleep...my trainer, an exercise partner.

Intentions for the day


I am 34 inches thinner from my bust/waist and hips and a size 8's measurements of 36/28/38 on October 7, 2015.  I am following the trainers workout and food plans drink 64 oz of water a day and getting 8 hours of sleep every night.
I track this by completing my measurements every 4 weeks and weighing in weekly. My expectation is to see a decrease of approximately 5 inches per month.

Morning Blood Sugar: 102


Exercise: With trainer.  Felt so hard today!   Completed the ladder in 59 seconds.   That is a 30 sec decrease in my time.  CRAZY!   We also did pushups, shoulders, wall sits, squats, lunges, biceps.  The HRM said I burned 705 calories in one hour.  



Breakfast:
Time: 8 am
Hunger  Level *:

Dinner:

Hunger Level*:
Ate: cafe rio pork (homemade) with tortilla, cheese, rice, beans and meat.   A little greek yogurt too.  Very tasty.    Mint ice cream with chocolate sauce a little after
Comments:  I warmed the pork from the freezer.  Turned out great.   I think freezer meals must become part of my repertoire.  


Water intake:  64 oz


Daily Wins:  Didn't over eat even though I was exhausted.  Stayed up late last night talking to my brother and his wife.  It was nice. We don't get to talk like that very often.  Prepped dinner for tomorrow already.  Loaded the dishwasher.  Didn't die during my workout.

I am 2 lbs lighter each week and am 30 lbs lighter on 6/15/15. (From 198 to 168) I am completing my daily trainer workouts, planning my meals, eating as I am hungry and listening to my fullness cues. I get in 10000 steps 6 times a week. I measure my progress with Sunday Morning weigh ins and document it on my blog. I stick to a regular bedtime and only be on the computer/electronics with a timer. My aim is to feel energetic and strong. Feeling good in my own skin.

**Hunger Scale is from 0-10 with zero being absolutely empty, ravenous and 10 being so stuffed that you are absolutely sick.
0--Empty
1--Ravenous
3--Set
4--Pangs
5--Neutral
6.5--Satisfied
8--Full
9--Stuffed
10--Sick
"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
