I have done 2 nights of ab work per the Flatten Your Abs ebook. I had almost forgotten to do them and then remembered them at the last minute before I went to sleep! Oh, well, the important thing is that I did them. Last night I did Modified push-ups as my plan is to do push-ups for the Push-Up Challenge twice a week. I may have to up that to 3 times a week to meet my goals as I could only do 5 which doesn't even meet what I could do last week!

I’m paying more attention to my eating than I have been for over a week. It sure does help if I try to think and plan the night before what I’m going to eat the next day. Here’s what I ended up with yesterday:

M1: Egg sandwich (1 real egg and 1 eggbeater, 2 slices white bread), non-fat homemade caffe mocha
M2: Slim Fast drink and a Zone bar. OK, so not the best choice as far as whole foods go, but it’s better than a Mt. Dew and a Pop-Tart!
M3: Sweet potato and half of a tuna/cheese/tomato mixture. (That will amount to 3.5 oz of tuna and 1?2 oz of cheese).
M4: Rest of the tuna/cheese/tomato mixture, oatmeal
There was no M5 as I just wasn't hungry.

Grand total of 1500 cals, 20%F / 48%C / 32% P.

Workout today was done at home since I couldn’t go to the gym at lunch. I intended to do heavy legs...gotta get these puppies in shape. But my 4yo was all up under me the entire time and I didn't get near the workout in that I wanted to. I will have to edit this post later with the details as I left my workout book at home.
