Now that these 10 days are finally over & I’ve gotten use to the new program, I’ve got to switch. I think I’ll keep it pretty similar, just a lot more calories and mix up the exercises. I’ll also cut my self some slack, not too much, just a little for now. I’m going to have fun working out and feeling good. That’s how I feel right now. It’s a big difference from 6 months ago.
Exercise: 35 min Turbo Sculpt
It was awesome!!! No, I didn’t get up early to eat before my workout. In fact I slept in. So, I did actually have breakfast and a snack before working out and had more energy then all the other workouts so far. I enjoyed it. My military press is weak, but that will come in time. I really focused on my posture and using my abs to help with the lifts. It was a lot easier and I felt great after.
Everything I Ate on Day 9:
Breakfast 10am
- 5 egg whites, 1 whole egg
- 4 slices turkey
Snack 1pm
- 1 slice mixed grain bread
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
Snack 3pm
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup red grapes
Lunch 5:30pm
- 5 oz tuna
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 1 cup spinach chopped
- 1 cooked egg white, chopped
- 2 tsp. mustard
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Dinner 8pm
- 4 oz grilled chicken breast
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts
- 1 cup ice burg lettuce
- 1 tbsp fat free catalina
Water: 8 glasses
Other: Daily Vitamin, Glucosamine
Even though vegetables aren’t the first things that comes to my mind when I’m hungry. They might be in the future. I love the way I feel after eating them. I switched one of my snacks around with lunch because I felt like it. I’ve held in there this long I might as well finish strong. Tomorrow’s the big day!!!

Congratulations. You seem to be dedicated and are progressing well. Shows will power staying away from the scale. I am a scale addict
, even though I know my weight can fluctuate 5 or 6 pounds in a day, but I don’t take it to heart, the weekly weigh ins are what matter to me. Keep up the good work and I am sure you will reach your goals. Oh yeah, and thinking about it and posting about it all the time helps me I know. (Not that I need it, I was blessed with iron will but man it does make it a lot easier knowing I have support of people, even if I have never met them.) Hope to hear more good reports.

Kaoshavoc: I was also blessed with the iron will; it helps when times get tough. Thanks for all the encouragement!
