Report card for Thursday
Ugh, I thought I had the day off and put off my workout this morning, then next thing I know I have to go into work for a meeting. One thing led to another and I spent the whole day there. :mad: So I did NO exercise today! Damn. I took my dog on two long walks and walked to and from work but that's not quite the same as the burn I get from the 30 Day Shred. I will have to make up for it this weekend!
To make matters worse my boss insisted on treating me to lunch and everything was super carby so I went with a sausage and lentil dish and some cauliflower soup but I can't be sure how much fat was in those dishes. In any case, I ended up going past my 1500 calorie limit by 67 calories today. I have some major catching up to do tomorrow. Maybe I can get two workouts in and cut back on the food a little. My goals for this week: 1. Do the 30 Day Shred every morning NO / YES / YES / No :( 2. Weigh in, only on Tuesday YES / YES / YES / YES 3. Eat between 1300-1550 calories per day. YES (1290) / YES (1399) / YES (1402) / No (1567) 4. Keep carbs under 40% YES (17%) / YES 25% / YES 38% / YES 35% 5. Drink 10 big glasses of water per day. DONE! / YES! / YES / YES 6. Join the Y. Not yet... / Not yet... |

I carry professional liability (malpractice) insurance, if that's similar, but I've never heard it called E&O.
Jess, I feel ya. I never get anything back either; being self-employed, nothing is taken out of my check; instead, I have the pleasure of writing Uncle Sam a check every three months. I know it all works out the same, but it stinks every year when everyone I know is planning how to use their refunds :(. Just looked it up, I guess it's the same. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_...ions_insurance |

I owe Uncle Sam a few grand then I had to come up with $1100 this week for my E&O insurance for work. Speaking of... Cassie, do you have to carry E&O?
cjohnson728 Yea, what sucks more is that I didn't know I owed them until it came time for tax season , they really know how to hit some one when their down. I wanted to get another tat or go on Vacation- it's been almost a year since my last break from Michigan and I'm going stir crazy lol |

I've posted this before, if you are having a chocolate craving try this:
"Chocolate Mousse" I do a ratio of 1:10 1= Optimum Nutrition (gold standard) Chocolate Supreme Casein Protein (which ever protein or brand that you prefer) 10= Non Fat Greek Yogurt. Here's out it looks... 17 grams Casein Protein + 170grams (6oz container) Oikos Plain Organic Greek Yogurt. Mix it up and throw it in the freezer for a few mins. 159 cals .5g fat = 3% 8.3g carbs = 21% 29.6g protein = 76% (slow digesting protein to get you through the night) |

Wow! How are you going to pay them off? Luckily I don't owe them that much only 400 something but still- for relying on 100 a week in Babysitting, and renting an apartment and other bills i barely get by as it is.
Oh wait, I get paid the big bucks here, I may just ask for another raise. ;) I'm kidding btw. |

Yum! and something not too carby! That's my biggest problem is eating a ton of carbs- but according to a little test I took I don't need to worry so much about them, but still having more than 50% carbs everyday makes me feel uneasy.

I looked at the pile, but just decided to walk away, I swear it's looking at me! :eek: Ha, realized I better go get Feb's mail from my PO box! 3) Take god daughter out for a FroYo date no, no, no, no 4) Clear one room of clothes to keep/donate/toss no, no, no, no but tried on two pairs of jeans so making progress???

Jess, everybody's different. I lost 20 pounds with carbs anywhere from 50-60%. I'd temporarily whack it lower, like now, when I'm in a plateau, but just because low carb works for someone else doesn't mean it works for you. My best advice is to experiment with different things and to find out what's best for your body. And don't forget to eat your healthy fats, too!
