Day 8: Tuesday, March 4, 2008
Weight: 137 lbs
Today I feel fine. I am not sore at all. As a matter of fact, I suggested to my trainer that we amp it up and really work me out hard tomorrow and he stated,
”Just because you don’t feel it doesn’t mean it’s not working.”
I trust him.
I’ve noticed is that I am much more aware of my body since beginning Pilates. I find myself sitting taller and standing straighter. I also try to keep my core engaged more of the time, especially when I’m walking while carrying something heavy, like today when I walked to the grocery store for an 8 lb bag of catfood.
I have also noticed found that eating organic whole foods allows me to feel much more full while eating less calories. I suppose foods that haven’t been manipulated in any way are more filling, which makes sense to me. I purchase most of my groceries from Trader Joes. Whole Foods is another place you can find orgnanic foods, although it is much more expensive. The items I can’t find at the smaller TJ, I can find at Whole Foods.
What I ate today:
Bananas (2)
Go Raw Trek Miz
Smoked Turkey Kielbasa
Potato and Cheese Perogies
Burrito (ground beef, salsa, taco sauce, black beans, tomatoes, lettuce, flour tortilla)
Total Calories Consumed: 1,343
