Ain't No Mountain High Enough!

Hey blog world!!!

So i have to brag on myself! This week I started morning workouts! Yes...I've been getting up at 5am to head to the gym to get in 45min. I was able to do the treadmill at an incline of 5.0-10.0 at 1.8-3.2mph for 45min!!! Yes sir...high five me!

So I have embarked on a super yummy, low calorie breakfast(picture is below BUT I Added some cucumber):
Jamie's yummy breakfast sandwich:
1-whole wheat sandwich thins
2-slices turkey bacon
1-egg fried in no cal canola oil
1-slice sharp cheddar skim milk cheese
Oh yes! 245 calorie goodness!

Snack today was a cucumber. Pre lunch and post lunch.

Lunch: 1-package tuna in water, a small gala apple and Parmesan garlic wheat thins.

In between lunch and dinner I had a grape flavored Spark! Yummy!!!

Dinner: 2 oz smoked sausage, 1/2 cup Mac and cheese, 1/2 cup ranch style beans.

Tonight I broke out of my shell. I went to a free Zumba class. I actually hit it off with a lady and we talked about my process and etc. then it was time to dance! I danced my socks off for 60minutes! Zumba is so nice! It releases so much positivity because you are doing a fun dance workout. If you haven't tried Zumba, I encourage you to. You can burn up to 800calories in 1 hour!!!

Well ladies and gents...time to get rockstar sleep so I can get up again and be a superstar bright and early!

Today for breakfast I had a scrambled egg with kosher salt and piece of toast with 5 sprays of zero calorie parkway.

Mid morning I had 1- 100 calorie tuna salad pack.

Lunch- advocare chocolate mocha meal replacement.

Post lunch- small gala apple

Dinner- 2 buffalo chicken wraps in flour tortillas with a dab of cheese and ranch. YUMMY!!!

Tonight I got invited to a Zumba workout...I've done Zumba before and ladies/gentleman I will tell you, you can burn 800+calories in 1 hour! It's literally a full body workout. So we popped in the DVD and the room full of us non-dancers slowly learned to salsa, samba and reggae! My shirt was soaked and my hair dripping wet by the time we finished at 50minutes. We burned about 761 calories! Yes!!! 761!!!! That's literally almost my entire calorie intake for the day! It was fun!!! And FREE!!! I encourage you, if your interested, to check out your local city activity venues a lot of them offer these sessions free!

Sleep tight and remember tomorrow is a new day...if you slacked today, try again tomorrow! -<3

Scream...Shout...let it all out!

Hey followers! How's everyone's post Football junk food diet going?

I hope you have gotten back on track...I know when that Sunday comes every year it's hard to skip the nachos/hot dogs and hot wings. Trust me I'm right their with you. But...I will say I paid for it later that night and into the next day because when your body is not used to the greasy fatty foods for so long it really causes an uproar in your system. Needless to say...I learned my lesson!

Sooo onto today:

I started my day with 1 large scrambled egg and 1 slice white toast (was out of wheat) and 5 sprays of parkway zero calorie spray.

Pre - lunch I had a small gala apple.

Lunch consisted of my Chocolate Mocha Advocare Meal Replacement.

Post lunch I had 1- 100 calorie tuna salad packet.

Dinner: 4 oz angus top round steak seasoned with Cajun seasoning. 1 cup four cheese rice and 2/3 cup steamed green beans.

Today's total calorie count: 995

I've been really trying to eat every 2.5-3 hours. This keeps me from wanting to crash..or binge eat because in starving. A little something every couple of hours keeps your metabolism fueled and your body nicely nourished!

I'm really excited to see what my weight is on the 15th as that's picture time. Ahhh!!! I love this awesome journey I'm on!

If you haven't started yours...what are you waiting for?

I've been a naughty girl...

So...
I bet your wondering...
What the Heck Jamie, why haven't you been blogging?

Here's the truth;

I have been eating very bad junk the past 3 days. I don't want to let anyone down so I've been afraid to share. I promise I'm getting back on the grind tomorrow...I've made toooo much progress to relapse.

Please continue to follow me...I hope I'm still inspiring you to lose weight...

<3,
Jamie

C'mon join the joyride.

This post is for Friday, February 1, 2013.

Good evening folks!

I know my post is super late...was sooooo busy today.

Breakfast: 1 cup dry Cheerios
Pre-lunch: 9 pieces pork skins
Lunch: Advocare's Chocolate Mocha Replacement

Yay...so I love Fridays because I get off work early afternoon. So I hit the gym. Since I was so mad about yesterday's work out I made myself work hard today! I set the incline on the treadmill to 5.0 and it remained their the entire 65minutes I was on the treadmill...yes I said 65 minutes...champs don't become champs overnight. I set my speed to 2.5mph...every 5 minutes I changed it so it was 2.5 then 2.0 then 2.5 then 2.0. This gives you some resistance and keeps your heart rate up so your doing nothing but burning amazing amounts of calories!

Now, I want to explain dinner....

As I've said before you can eat amazing things of you do your portions right. So tonight we went to dinner with some great friends and it ended up being Hooter's. I had already prepped what I would order because I looked up their menu. So the first thing I do is order water and I completely down the entire glass. Next, we ordered fried pickles....their about 6 calories each...I had 21 w/no dressing. Then for my main course I ordered 10 bone-in Naked Wings w/no sauce. Yep...super yummy and filling. I made sure to drink another 4 glasses of water while we sat and just talked. Made my cravings to order more or dessert go completely away. :) that's a plus in my book! I love being able to still enjoy myself at a restaurant even though I can't order this/that because I can...in portions!

So we got home and I felt I was still a little hungry and I had leftover spinach pizza so I had 1 slice.

Today's calorie goal: 1200
