The Shred-Day Four

When I started the video today, I got to thinking. Could I do the whole workout through without stopping? I was sure going to try.

Sadly, today was not the day for this. However, I only stopped twice today and it was near the beginning--the first sets of jumping jacks and jump rope. Maybe tomorrow I can can go non-stop.

I'm also considering using the five pound weights for some of the strength stuff. I've been using the three pound weights so far, so maybe if I rotate to the weights I'll get a little more out of that part of the workout.

Again, today, it wasn't as bad as it was on day one or two. I don't dislike Jillian so much anymore--I say that now, but what I've heard from other girls about the second workout I don't think it will last long!

I got home earlier today than originally planned because of our snowfall. It started snowing around 10 am and continued all day long. So I scooted shortly after the bell, scraped off my car--as soon as I wiped, it got covered almost immediately, and just about crawled home.

The bright side of this story is not only was I home earlier and therefore could workout and eat earlier but hubby, who got home about 20 minutes prior to me, took the lead and prepared dinner-mainly. It was certainly nice!

Which brings us to my menu today:

Green tea with cherry and pomegranate

Fat free Greek yogurt, granola, honey
Green tea with cherry and pomegranate

Carrot sticks (I wasn't very hungry at snack time but thought if I didn't eat then, I'd be ravenous by lunch--HA! As soon as I ate the carrots I was starving)

Leftover chicken, leftover rice, cheese, avocado, spinach mix.
One half of a pink grapefruit

Beef hard shell tacos with cheese and avocado--which were delicious, so delicious I ate three, oops. But I have to say, I stopped between each one to make sure I was still hungry, not just eating.
One pink grapefruit.

I like to eat my grapefruit kind of like an orange but I pull all the white stuff (what is that called?) off and eat only the juicy fruit. I'm slightly obsessed. But tonight as I indulged in my grapefruit hubby was raiding our sweets and chocolate items--and I didn't even want a crumb!
