Well I can already tell I’m eating fewer calories all together, but some how I’m not starving either. My children slept in today so it was easy to get in an exercise and shower before they woke up. I did the 40 min Turbo Jam Cardio Party. It was long but good and I psyched my self out like the instructor tells you to do in the end and told my self I was getting my second wind. Sure enough I did. Interesting how powerful the mind is.
Exercise: 40 min Turbo Jam Cardio Party
Everything I Ate:
Breakfast 10am
- 3 egg whites, 1 whole egg
- 1 cup broccoli
Snack 12pm
- 2 slices low fat cheese
- 1 cup red grapes
Lunch 2pm
- 1 slice mixed grain bread
- 4 slices turkey
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 3 slices tomato
- ½ cup spinach
Snack 4pm
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 1 cup milk
- 1 small apple
Dinner 8pm
- 1 whole wheat tortilla
- 4 oz grilled chicken breast
- ¼ cup black beans
- ¼ cup brown rice
- 1 tbsp salsa
Water: 8 glasses
Other: Vitamin, Glucosamine, 2 Tylenol
That’s it! This is a lot less food then I usually eat. The portions are so small. Some how I thought there would be another snack after dinner. Luckily I didn’t get around to eating dinner until 8. I’ll try spacing my meals better tomorrow. Depending on when I wake up 3-4 hours between. The Tylenol was for the migraine I got while waiting to eat my dinner. Between getting two kids ready for bed and making dinner it just took forever. While making dinner I made extra of any ingredient that I could use in another meal to save time the next time I need to eat. Then I pre measured out the extra food in the portions I need to save time there too. Pre planning saves me from just eating whatever or skipping a meal.

This is very impressive–are you doing any weight training as well? Keep up the good work. You know I have a video called SurfStronger Vol2 Core Training- have you ever heard of it? It seems pretty good for core work.

Wow, great job so far! Your motivation is amazing. If small portions keep bugging you, you could try snacking on something very low calorie like cucumbers or baby carrots.

SpinDiva: Thanks for the tip on SurfStronger V2 I’ll have to check it out. It sounds perfect. I haven’t been doing enough weights. With this 10-day program I do weight training ever third day, and man do I ever feel it.

Where can I find information about the Turbo Slim menu and exercise plan?

Kristi:
Mine came with my Turbo Jam Maximum Results package. My 10 days are based pretty darn close to the menu, and exercise plan. The exercises of coarse are turbo jam workouts. I’ve looked online to see if there was any way to just buy that part of the package, but couldn’t find it. If you already have the videos you might be able to call beach body and purchase the nutrition/exercise plan. I did find the Turbo Jam Maximum Results cheaper on Amazon.
