Updating my goals
After 4 long months of my final semester of college and graduation last friday (YES!!) It’s been a long time since I posted and I need to not only take a new, fresh look at my exercise/eating goals, but I need to formulate a plan. So here it goes.
Workout plan:
supersetting, light weight, quick paced workouts: M-W-F
Ab workout T-H-Sat
Interval run TH
dancing (my favorite) T-Sat
My new eating plan: (total:~1300 cal, ~100g protein, ~30g fiber.) Any critiques would be welcome.
Breakfast: Oatmeal with flax seed and 1 egg (270 cal, 13g protein, 6g fiber)
Lunch: homemade, brothy, veggie soup and a tuna on a low carb wrap and an apple (320 cal, 24g protein, 8g fiber)
Snack: 1slice Ezekial bread with 1 tbsp of "natually more" peanut butter (160 cal, 9g protein, 5g fiber)
Dinner: 3 oz Chicken with 1 cup broccoli and a small sweet potato (315 cal, 32g protein, 8g fiber)
Evening snack: 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 cup mixed berries (190 cal, 20g protein, 3g fiber)
AM snack if I have a long day: Protein drink or protein bar
Plan for Accountability:
This is key for me, not only do I have a hard time sticking to things in the past (hey, I’m honest) but I haven’t had any real need to be accountable to myself other than my desire to be healthy and fit. So here it goes:
1. Weigh myself every friday in front of my husband!
2. Add extra cardio for lax behavior
3. Hang pics of fitness people who inspire me (Diana Chaloux, Maria Kang, Jamie Eason, Jennifer Nicole Lee, Tanji Johnson, Jen Hendershott, etc.) There’s one on my fridge, several in my workout room, and two in conspicuous cabinets where my husband has snacks!
4. I will post my weight fridays after he watches me weight in.
5. I will read/find new motivation every Sunday to "meditate" on throughout the week.
Goals through the newyear: consistently meet these baseline objectives!!!
Goals for 2009:
Run for 3 miles without resting/walking
perform 10+ pullups (that’s right, I’m weak right now)
Reduce bodyfat to 18-20% (for starters)
Start a fitness myspace with pics taken by my husband’s friend Eli.
Perform 5+ handstand pushups
Perform 10+ full, one-legged squats.

Your diet looks fantastic! I especially like the cottage cheese. I am a big fan of eating cottage cheese before bed for a good slow digesting proteins. You will see results! I gaurantee it! Keep at it! Good Luck!
