Yesterday was Cardio X and the workout was awesome as usual. I love workout days like this because I love cardio workout in general. My meal plan was ok. However, I am wondering if I had too much sodium in my diet? Next week for sure I am going to follow the P90X nutrition guidelines to the tee! Sometimes, if I have too much sodium my body will retain a lot of water and I hope that is not the case. Otherwise it will be a sad day, lol.
My meal plan yesterday:
- Breakfast: Eggs, turkey sausage, cottage cheese and water
- Snack: String Cheese and water
- Lunch: Chicken Tortilla soup with 1tbsp of protein powder, salad and water
- Snack: cottage cheese
- Dinner: Lean Cuisine dinner and water
Today, the meal plan was okay?
- Breakfast: Muscle Milk protein shake with, milk, ice and fruit/water
- Snack: String Cheese and water
- Lunch: Salad with chicken break and water
- Snack: Cottage Cheese and water
- Dinner: Turkey burger (maybe too big, I was full) baked fries and more water
- Total: 80 oz of water ( I feel bloated)
I was reading a saw that I should be drinking a lot more water than I was drink during these first 4 weeks (64oz) So, going into the next 4 weeks I will up my water and totally tweak my meal plan too. 2 hours after dinner I popped in the YogaX DVD and I only made it through 40 minutes tonight. Today I felt tired and so full from my water that I couldn’t maintain control throughout the downward dogs to the point I was feeling sick. So, I stopped in order to avoid injury. I hope that I made a good choice. Tomorrow is the end of week 4 and my hubby told me don’t even get on the scale tomorrow. He said just stay away from it, lol. So this will be the first week that I don’t weigh myself, Ekkk! I want to though. What do you all think? Stay away? I will try, lol. Well, I am going to recover and relax for the rest of the night. Tomorrow will be my rest day and no to week 5!!
