Wednesday's Accomplishments
Exercise: Strength
Calories: 1436

I had a really good day on the program today and ate a lot healthier than I have been recently.

For my workout, I did a new one - Michelle Dozois' Your Best Body Circuit. I really like this one! It's a mixture of cardio and strength intervals and for some of the strength exercises she uses a band (which is kinda fun). I'd rate this as an upper intermediate/advanced workout. Definitely for someone who's been working out for awhile.

For breakfast I had steel cut oatmeal. I mixed in a chopped banana, 1 tbs of PB2, cinnamon, brown sugar and a pat of butter (345). For lunch I had a pita pizza topped mushrooms, onions and tomatoes (419). I had a small amount of jelly beans after lunch to take the edge off my sweet tooth (70). For dinner I made breaded tilapia along with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables (brussel sprouts, carrots and cauliflower) (552). Afterwards I had a small biscotti (50).

I changed my calorie values a little. Instead of doing 1400, 1400, 1500, 1500, 1800, 2000, 3000, I decided to change it to 1400, 1400, 1400, 1400, 2000, 2000, 3000. Of course, I will mix them up for the zig-zag effect as much as I can. I just figured I can tolerate the 1400 calorie days to get another 2000 day in there. The total weekly calories are the same as before (12,600). We'll see how it goes.

Great job doing a new workout. Your calorie goals seem reasonable, espeically since you were able to do 5 1200 calorie days last week!! Keep it up!!
