Good afternoon!
I just had the most energizing workout and lunch! :)
My workout was the same intervals as yesterday, only today I didn’t get off the treadmill to do any resistance stuff. I decided I would do my squats tonight.
My workout:
- Walk/run intervals (4.0-4.2 mph) incline 12%
- Duration: 50 mins.
- Max heart rate: 167 bpm
- Avg heart rate: 152 bpm
- Feel the burn: 444 kcals
I did nine 1.5 minute run intervals at speed 4.2 mph, incline 12.
This workout kicks my butt! I was sweaty, out of breath, and grooving to my Britney music. :) I even sang some of the lyrics from time to time. Thank God no one was home to witness it!
After the cardio, I did about 10 mins. of yoga poses. I was under a beam of sunlight coming into the window and it felt so warm and lovely!
My lunch was fantastic!!
I had some produce to use up today so I decided the quickest thing to do was to throw everything into a skillet, throw some seasonings and dressing on it, and I would have a healthy lunch.
The contents:
- 1 small zucchini
- 3 mushrooms
- 4 slices of tomato (thrown in at the end of cooking, just to warm)
- Italian salt free seasoning
- Black pepper
- Kraft Light Sun Dried Tomato Dressing
The sauce was my special tomato + Avocado sauce that I am addicted to!
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1/2 avocado
- couple splashes of Almond milk
- pepper
The sauce doesn’t look pretty but it tastes amazing and packs tons of antioxidants.
With the $1 placemat. :D
This morning was a 1 Swiss Chard leaf + 2 Kale leaves + 1/2 Banana + Flax Green Monster. Mid morning snack was a big ‘ol orange.
I must say even after cutting off half the stem of the swiss chard (the bottom portion- not the stem around the leaf), it still tastes quite bitter to me in the smoothie. I think tomorrow I am going to remove the entire stem and see if that helps!
I’m off to finish my secret order. Then I have a bunch of errands to run for the rest of the day.
1) Check out my Fav blogroll page. I updated it to include my favourite beauty, fashion, and home reno websites!
