Day 3 Recap The Firm Express 4 Day Kick Start

Still so tired, teen is on antibiotics, but it still went into an ear infection, so I was up half the night with him because of that. So funny that he's still such a baby when he's sick.

So, yes, I caved and had coffee again. With 1 Tblsp half & half it adds 20 calories, I'm OK with that. Doing my best! But I realize these little tweaks may affect my results.

Breakfast was Coach's Oats with 1/2 cup blueberries and 1 Tblsp Walnuts; coffee with 1 Tblsp h & h; 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (plan calls for fat free milk, but this is what I had)
Snack 1 was 6 oz 0% Fage with 2/3 cup strawberries.
And...that's all the pics I took in my hectic day yesterday. The rest of my snacks were: an apple, 10 almonds, and a stalk of celery with 1 Tblsp natural peanut butter.

Lunch was the same sandwich and apple as yesterday. Dinner was 4 oz of lean sirloin with 1/2 a tomato (Plan called for spinach too, but I just didn't want it).

Also, total plan fail, I was seriously craving something sweet and I had a banana after dinner. I get that way when I'm tired. Usually I reach for ice cream or something worse. SO glad nothing like that is even in the house right now!

Workout was:
Turbocharge Cardio, Overdrive Sculpt, and Bonus DVD Pump it up!
It was roughly 50 minutes, but my (just got for Christmas!) Polar HR monitor wasn't reading. So, not sure what the calorie burn was either.

I have to say I like these workouts, but I'm looking forward to doing them in order and slowly learning the moves. Mixing up the more advanced phases in this 4 Day Kick Start, the moves tend to move pretty fast.

Other than the banana and coffee, I've stuck to the eating awesomely. I have to say I feel good, not hungry like I expected to be. I'm not beating myself up for still having coffee, etc it's been a seriously rough week and I'm proud of myself for sticking to everything as well as I have! Can I get a spring break do-over though? You know, one with more break in it.

Have a great day...I'm hoping I get a nap (not gonna happen, lol).
