TABATA INTERVALS! Back at it today. Went to the gym and did the Tabata. It was a small class with only myself and one other participant besides the instructor. I still got a good workout and we did sprints. I was a bit worried about the sprints as I'm not a runner but it was fine.
This is the second day of the new year and I'm starting to adjust my portion size. The main change is in lunch. I'm trying to pack more protein and downsize the portion overall. The salads are going into smaller containers as a way to force a smaller portion. It will be a trial and error method of experimenting to determine how much is the right amount. Next will be dinner. That will be a bit easier I think. Alright here's the damage for today:
Breakfast: Egg and turkey sandwich on a skinny bun with guacamole and tomato. Banana and 20oz of cold water.
1st snack: Greek yogurt and almonds
Lunch: Spinach salad with cauliflower, tomato, veggie meat, quinoa, and salsa for dressing.
2nd snack: The new part of the program is a slice of whole wheat toast with peanut butter
Dinner: Tonight I had a turkey burger with bacon and guacamole on a chiabatta bun. Added tomato, spinach, and cheese. Of course the inevitable holiday treats. Man oh man they should be gone soon, I hope. A bit later had a bag of 100cal popcorn.
So it was Tabata tonight at the gym. I got another great workout and so continue to like the Tabata Intervals.
So today was the start of the new program. What with the smaller lunch and the afternoon snack I'm working on creating a new habit. I'll try to continue with this in the coming weeks. And please let me finish off the holiday treats so I can get back to complete normal.
