Black Friday, bleh!

What I ate today:

1. Breakfast, 478 calories. I had a Braeburn apple, part of it made into a little apple and cheese wrap and about a tablespoon and a half of peanut butter. I should've cut out the PB, but it helps me feel full (despite it being kind of high in calorie. :/). I also put Chia seeds into the wrap, which adds 60 calories.
2. Buncha Crunch, 540 calories. Eesh. I didn't even want to list the calories out. We went to a movie, I had Buncha Crunch which clearly I thought was slightly lower in calorie than that. 
3. Leftover Thanksgiving turkey, 210 calories.
4. Belly Buster Smoothie, 246 calories. It's much better with peanut butter; gives it more flavor than when I put Flaxseed oil in. 

Total: 1,483 calories

Nutritional Goals

Met: Calories, protein, carbs, sodium

Not met: Fat (over), fiber (under)

What I did today:

• Day 1 of SparkPeople's 28-day Bootcamp Workout, 117 calories burned, 10 minutes
• Lower body strength workout (via SparkPeople), 42 calories burned, 15 minutes
• Day 1 video a second time, 117 calories burned, 10 minutes
• Qi Gong Routine, 30 calories burned, 15 minutes. I wanted to do Yoga Fusion, but there's no way that's a beginning yoga routine (though it says it is). It was way too complicated. So I switched it up after I started watching it.

Total: 316 calories burned, 50 minutes of exercise

Calories consumed: 1,164 

Happy Thanksgiving!

What I ate yesterday:

1. Gluten-free cinnamon sugar donut, 180 calories.
2. Belly Buster smoothie, 410 calories. (I put 2 tablespoons of Chia Seeds in there.)
3. 1/4 of a dark chocolate bar, 105 calories.
4. Dinner @ parents, no idea! But it was healthy. Chicken, corn, and a tiny piece of lemon poppyseed bread.
5. Apple with a tiny bit of peanut butter, 150 calories.

What I ate today:

1. Banana, 109 calories.
2. Thanksgiving foods, no idea! But I didn't splurge. I didn't cheat myself out of any Thanksgiving food, either. I had mashed potatoes. I had apple pie. But I didn't put mounds of it on my plate. Plus, if you count the calories I burned doing strength, I only ate like 37 calories.

What I did today:

• Upper body strength training, 20 minutes. I confess, I was going to do Jillian Michaels' DVD for 40 minutes and burn 200 more calories than I burned this morning. But ultimately, I needed more rest. Thanks to the SparkPeople Workout Generator, I found a 20 minute, 4 move upper body strength workout I could do with my dumbbells called the Arm-Toning Wedding Dress Workout. They named it that, not me. 

I will edit this post if I do more strength training tonight once I get home. I'd like to, to burn more calories since I have to burn 594 more calories by Saturday if I want to make my 1,000 calories burned per week goal. That's 319 calories aside from the Six Week Six Pack I'm scheduled to do on Saturday. I would like to burn 100 more calories tonight somehow.

Thank you, Canada!

What I ate today:

1. Breakfast smoothie (with mango), 561 calories.
2. Tuna and cheese wrap, 369 calories. I made this up because I wanted to eat something natural yet high in protein (aka not just a scoop of protein powder in some milk). I used Laughing Cow cheese, an 80 calorie tortilla, and 5 ounces of tuna. I put a tablespoon of Chia seeds on top of the tuna as well. It wasn't bad; I'll make another wrap with the other can of tuna I had in the pantry eventually. I'm not a huge tuna fan though.
3. Sleep Inducer Smoothie, 284 calories.
4. York Pieces, 170 calories. I need to stop eating these. I didn't splurge or anything, but I could eat a lot of things for 170 calories that have nutritional value. 

Total: 1,353 calories

This is my new favorite website in the world. It's a Canadian fitness site. I am going to use it every day and focus on a different body part each day. I still wish I had a gym membership, but this plus running on decent weather days will have to do. The way the exercise finder works is you click a body part you want to work on, and it gives you pages of simple exercises to do!

Albums I listened to today:

1. OneDirection - Take Me Home (Yearbook Edition)
2. Stevie Wonder - Number 1's
3. Justin Bieber - Believe
