Because you asked

I’ve had a couple people note me lately asking just how I lose weight so I’ve decided to keep a journal of my daily living for those that really want to know what I do in a typical day.  WARNING:  It’s nothing great but it’s what works for me 🙂

I don’t count calories so I have no idea how many I’ve consumed.

Breakfast

Protein bar and 1/2 cup of fat free strawberry yogurt with granola on top.   Bottle of water.

Lunch

1 pita cut in two stuffed with green & red pepper, 2 slices of roasted chicken, deli style, pickles, onion and fat free mayo. Handful of rice cakes (small round ones) Bottle of water

Snack – couple of jelly beans because hubby was eating them infront of me 

Dinner

1 baked chicken leg, small serving of corn, a huge bowl of caesar salad with calorie reduced fat free dressing, small bowl of cottage cheese, bottle of water

Snack will be a cup of green tea with some pretzels or something like that.

Exercise

30 mins on treadmill @ 3.9 mph incline 5

15 mins on treadmill @ 3.9 mph incline 10.

10 mins on bike 71 rmp.

30 mins of circuit training (weights, stretching, stairmaster etc)

There you have it. A typical day in my neighbourhood.

I measured myself yesterday too. I think I lost an inch on my stomach, legs and arms. I won’t know for sure until I do my re-evaluation at the gym on Monday. I’ll report back then.
