Ok so I got a late start to my New Year’s resolutions! We’ve
been on a bit of an extended vacation since the Hubster was on leave until
today! But I knew this and so I made my resolutions to start today! J Smart
right?! lol So my first workout today is to walk 3 miles actually I need to
walk about 3 miles a day to meet my goal of walking 1000 miles this year! So I’m
6 days behind yikes that’s 18 miles! But that’s ok I can make it up a little at
a time right? Right? ok ok not gonna stress about it. I’m also planning on
doing 10o’s today. I LOVE this workout, it’s quick but effective and it hurts so
good! You do 100 crunches, 100 squats and 100 pushups! Now I know this can seem
like a lot, and it is, and if you are just starting out do 50’s or 25’s or
break it up and do 4 sets of 25. Make it work for you! I feel so accomplished after
I do this workout, the next day I may be sore, ok I will be sore but I love it!
So after a good workout it’s important to refuel your body! If
you are like me working out can make you even more hungry and I hate that I can
ruin all my efforts by eating the wrong things or too much even if it’s the “right
thing”.
What to eat? I love to have an apple with peanut butter,
just a tablespoon though (it’s high in fat) you can also make a smoothie with a
banana, yogurt, and peanut butter or some protein powder. Or just the banana and peanut butter. You notice I keep
adding peanut butter? It’s for the protein that is so important after a
workout. You could also have a small 1 oz portion of chicken or turkey with an
apple. The idea is to not have a meal but to add some fuel to replace the energy
that you’ve just expended! I’m going with the apple and peanut butter today!
What are you going to have?!
ENJOY!
