My husband, son and I did a lot of running around today so needless to say I didn't do a great job with my diet. I tried to eat as healthy as I could though.
Morning Snack: Orangeman Smoothie
Lunch: Eggplant parmesan, spaghetti with marinara sauce, bread and peach lemonade
Afternoon Snack: N/A
Dinner: Turkey Tacos - ground turkey taco meat, shredder cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes and hard taco shells
I was supposed to do Insanity Cardio Recovery today but by the time we all got home it was early afternoon and we all took a nap until just before dinner time. I did take my son for a small walk and I mowed the front yard. It's not much but that's about all the exercise I got for today :o(
I discovered that my calorie intake isn't what it should be while talking to my health-nut brother today. I already adjusted my protein oatmeal a few weeks ago when I realized that I was eating close to 500 calories for that meal alone. I was using 2 tbsp of chopped walnuts but I replaced them with 1 tbsp of flaxseed instead. While talking to my brother I realized that the recipe for my Orangeman smoothie is actually for 2 servings and I've been drinking the whole thing!! Although I managed to cut my protein oatmeal down to 390 calories, with the smoothie I was consuming almost 1000 calories alone between breakfast and my morning snack!! The rest of my meals, aside from dinner of course, have been around 300 calories. Right now my goal is to eat around 1700 calories per day. I will most likely have to adjust that in the next few weeks in order to continue doing the P90X/Insanity hybrid program. I guess I'll just have to play it by ear. Hopefully, I will actually start to see some results now though since I won't be eating almost my whole daily allowance before the day is even half over :o)
