This post is for you Ashley..... A day in my NEW LIFE

A few weeks ago Ashley asked me to post what I do in a day for working out and eating so here goes:

Below are a couple of days of my "food journal":
day 1:
WW Chocolate muffin
2 mozz string cheese sticks
chef's salad with ff ranch dressing (on the side)
fruit (strawberries, pineapple, melon)
Tuna Noodle Casserole
Weight Watchers Ice Cream Bar

2 33.8 oz Sams Club Clear American Wild Cherry Water
3 cans of Diet Coke

day 2:
WW Chocolate muffin
WW bagel with turkey and cheese
vanilla yogurt waffle cone
Five Guys Jr Hamburger
Five Guys french fries (about 1/4 of an order)

2 33.8 oz Sams Club Clear American Wild Cherry water
3 cans of Diet Coke

Working Out:
90 minutes a day using the NuStep (a stationary bike that you push the foot pedals instead of pedaling)

30 minute swim (occasionally 1-2 times a week)

50-100 ab crunches

3 lb dumb bell arm workout

There it is in a nutshell. For me the secret was getting my metabolism to kick in. I think that it is safe to say that it has. I am feeling great and am LOVING the fact that I am fitting into clothes that are in the BACK of my closet.

That is awesome. It's cool that your food is normal, good stuff and not some radical, weird diet that you wouldn't stick with. I am a big believer in keeping the things you love (like fries and ice-cream), just in moderate portions. (I go way over moderate sometimes, but what can you do.) I will have to try those WW ice cream bars. I love the skinny cow ones. Delicious. And glad to see you didn't do anything crazy like give up coke. It's even more important in a time like this. Keep up the amazing work!
