It's meet with L day! I always look forward to Saturday. If for no other reason than I know I'll get a workout in that matters. With having the idea of training for something in my mind it is really a big deal for me to meet with L. She has lots of good advice brought on by her experience running races and events. I always trust her to steer me in the right direction. For example today we worked on the lower body but specifically the glutes. Because if the glutes aren't firing than you ain't workin'. (HaHa L).
Breakfast: Cherry Pie Larabar and 20oz of cold water.
After workout and bike ride meal: Huge Teriyaki chicken with rice and a Giant piece of carrot cake.
Very late Midnight snack: Two Wasa cracker crisps with turkey and avocado. 4-5 pieces of candy and a 100cal bag of popcorn.
So did the mid-day meal seem a bit out of ordinary? Well I have to admit that I really love the Teriyaki chicken and I realized that since I started this whole lets live better deal I haven't eaten that particular meal. Not the Giant piece of carrot cake, that was me just being bad. The Teriyaki is very carb (tons of rice) heavy and I'm going to try to limit carbs for the next two weeks as an experiment. So figured I'd go crazy before I go crazy. I'm going to try to not eat any extra carbs. For example my usual breakfast is an egg sandwich with meat. So for the next two weeks I'll be still having my eggs but they will be in the form of a frittata. I'm going to make it ahead for the week. For lunch I'm going to make some kind of veggie salad type thing ( a food term ) for the week. We'll see if that will kick start the metabolism into overdrive for a while.
