Today was the official working out day! Josh came to the gym, and we both had one hour training with him. Though personally I think he likes working with AJ as AJ had a stroke and makes training interesting or challenging for Josh. Sigh, but ok. Took an hour for AJ but only about 40 mins for me. Onward!
The weights were just right for me, not too painful - which is so important, otherwise I'm stuck not able to do them. Josh has a plan for us at home and at the gym. I did my interval cardio while AJ was with Josh. I think I sweated more at doing that then at the weights. AJ and I decided that Sunday / Wednesday and Friday would be cardio and weights day with Sunday doing weights at home. Sunday/Monday/Wednesday and Friday are cardio days with intervals. This way we can switch Sunday and Monday if need be. Like this Sunday we are going to see my mother, and if we can't get to the weights, we can just do cardio Sunday and do weights and cardio Monday.
Macro wise, Josh came up with:
on Regular Days (Tuesday/Thursday and Saturday)
Protein - 125-130 grams
Fat - 65-70 grams
Carbs - 45-50 (net)
Calories - 1300
on Training days
Protein - 130 grams
Fat - 60-65 grams
Carbs - 55-60 (net)
Calories - 1350
And if I can get to around 1200 calories it would be good. Also, I'm allowed on Poon days, after weigh in, to continue with my lunches as I desire. Kinda a refeed day. Just no binges. I feel better being able to have some much better understanding in total.
I have input my meals/food into My Fitness Pal, and able to choose in the listed ranges. While keeping my 'snacks' down per Dr Poon.
Today being training day, my foods have been (will be for dinner and snacks):
B:
cloud bread - 2
laughing cow garlic - 1
butter/lemon curd jam
almond milk - 1/4 c
coffee / skinny syrup
diesel shake - 1/2 scoop
chicken breast - 3 ounces
S: coffee and stevia (no milk)
L:
Flax/Walnut/Cinn bagel
apricot jam/ butter/ lemon curd jam
herbal tea / lemon/ stevia
peas - 1/2 cup - this is to help put back the carbs into my muscles. Josh requested I have a bit more carb after weights / weight day.
jello
D: planning on (though not hungry at the moment - too tired)
tea / lemon / stevia
jello
steak - 4 or 5 ounces
field green lettuce - 1/4 package
renees ceasar dressing - 2 tbsp (I like dressing on my salads)
asparagus - 6 spears
S: (planned)
halva - at this point probably 1/2 of one, though might have a whole
meringues - 5 little ones
AND WATER - which writing of, I'd better drink some now.
It's been very cold out today, and snowing. Not really shoveling snow, though I did some so AJ could get to the car. But the cold.... no desire to walk Jax, took him to daycare when we went to the gym. Cheating! ha ha. 😸
Interestingly, I am emotionally upset, thinking I need to do more. As in exercise more, eat better..... tomorrow is jammie day Saturday and I currently think I shouldn't be doing that. That I must do something or else ? I have no idea or else what - I wont succeed? Honestly, my foods are good (at least I think so, and they aren't totally junk foods. The worse thing are those low carb meringues.) My body needs to recover from exercising - even Josh says to have a rest day between weights, so my exercising is good. I think I'm just stressing on myself and too much coffee for me. Maybe. Maybe my muscles are sore and I'm shaky inside because of it, and I'm thinking it's emotional stress. I think I will go clean the tub (yes, I do clean the tub regularly, but this is specific), have a sauna then have an espom salt bath. Both of those will help my muscles, my body, my emotions. I don't think dinner will be as planned.
