Comments: I have to be super organized to eat like this. I appreciate getting to eat but there is no snacking, dairy, sugar, bread, fruit, etc on this diet. 6 weeks, huh? I enjoyed changing up my weight training today to lesser reps and more weight. I felt powerful and strong!!!! I should be able to pop out at least 10 full pull-ups and 50 straight push-ups after this...well at least that's my goal.
Tomorrow: Cardio (90 min) and Chest

Well Hello Everyone!
Today marks the 6 week period. I have 6 weeks left to transform. I will admit that I made better choices and made an effort to workout more intensely, but I have to turn it up for the next 6 weeks. I have decided to skip the last two weeks of Phase 1 of the program and move on to Phase 2. In Phase 2 you drop reps (10, 8, 6) and increase cardio. I do have hidden muscle mass. I just have to felt the fat off so they can make their grand apperance. I am also going to follow the diet plan (mostly to the t) for the next 6 weeks. I bet Fred that I wouldnt give up sugar for a week (starting Thursday) and he would do the same. It was good for me to do that because I had to pass up cake twice. I wonder how Fred is doing???? Below is the diet plan for Phase 2. If you notice that I am not eating similar to this (starting Monday/Tuesday), but sure to call me out.
8am: 4 egg whites, 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 10 almonds
11am snack: 4oz of chicken breast, yams, 1 cup of broccoli
2pm lunch: 4oz of chicken breast, 1/2 cup of brown rice, 1 cup of broccoli, 10 almonds
5pm snack: 1 1/2 scoops of whey protein, 1 tsp of pnb
7pm dinner: 5oz of cod, mixed greens, cucumbers, balsamic vinegar, 10 almonds
10pm snack: 3 egg whites, 3 oz of ground turkey
Now, on the forums, people are already complaining that they cant afford to eat like this. I can afford it but feel like it's just so much food. I am suppose to reduce calories by 200 because I am shorter than 5' 3". Just note that what you see should look something like what is listed above
The workout should look like this:
Day 1: Back, Abs
Day 2: Chest
Day 3: Legs
Day 4: Off
Day 5: Shoulders, Abs
Day 6: Biceps, Triceps
Day 7: Off
Now it only suggest 1-2 high intensity cardio workouts per week. But I am going to do at least 6 (30 min) cardio sessions per week. Amanda Latona does a lot of cardio to prepare for a shoot. Shouldn't I?
Here is what I did Friday, Saturday and Sunday!
Friday:
B-veggie burger, 100 cal bread
L-grilled chicken on wheat toast
D-shrimp, green beans, cottage cheese with fruit
Exercise: kickbox and weights circuit (30 min), Basketball (20 min)
Saturday:
B-brown rice, veggie pattie
S-yogurt, almonds
L-grilled chicken, green beans, coleslaw, potato salad
S-almonds
Exercise: 1 hour intense spin class. It was great!
Sunday:
B-100 cal bread with pnb
S-hard boiled egg
L-grilled chicken, coleslaw, green beans
S-almonds, plain greek yogurt, coffee
D-more almonds
Exercise: 1hour moderate walk with mom at Haines Point
100% for the next 6 weeks. Goals:
1. Drop 10lbs
2. Drop 4 inches from waist
3. Increase glute measurement

B-4 egg whites w/sprinkled cheese
S-cottage cheese, fruit
L-2 veggie patties on 100 cal bread
S-pnb
D-Planned: shrimp, brown rice, veggies
Just in case you were wondering or wanted to keep closer taps on me, here is the training program for week 1-4
Day 1: Shoulders, ABS
Day 2: Chest, Biceps
Day 3: OFF
Day 4: Legs
Day 5: Back, Triceps
Day 6-7: OFF
I am instructed to do 15,12,10 reps. I was pyramiding (adding more weight as I drop reps). I was also advised to keep cardio to a minimum and put one rest day in between. I will do cardio on Monday (spinning), Tuesday (cardio kick), Thursday (Spinning), and Saturday (TBA). The new bikes should be here on Friday, May 28.
So, technically I only followed the program for Day 1 this week. I did TBS on Wednesday and did total body but not the exercises I was really suppose to do. I also wasnt using enough weight. So I have to catch up. Today I should do Chest, Biceps, Back, Triceps and save legs for tomorrow at SCLA. Getting legs in today would be great so I can do cardio tomorrow. I might throw a couple shoulder moves in there too.

She wants me to eat more...Interesting.

B-oatmeal with raisins, veggie patty
L-brown rice, broccoli, baked chicken
S-string cheese, 12 oz coffee with splenda
D-2 oz of meatloaf, greek yogurt, grapes
Exercise: TBS (40) and Pilates (40)
TBS: 1 Frontal/1 Lateral Raise, Alternating Lunges with DB overhead, Squat/Hammer Curl and Press, Straight Bicep Curls, Straight Curls/Static Bicep Curl, Tricep Extensions, Stationary Lunges, Full Push-Ups, and Cardio Segments of Jacks, Standing Scissors, Mountain Climbers, etc.
Comments: Now I found TBS hard. I was sweating and my shoulders were on fire from my workout on Monday. I was so trying not to show it. I did some lunges and squats but I am going to hit legs with more weight tomorrow as well as Bicep and Triceps, which I didnt isolate enough. I could also rest tomorrow and hit everything on Friday or Saturday. I will figure it out tomorrow based on what hurts. My abs definitely hurt from that ab workout on Monday while doing those Pilates moves. Wow!
Does anyone find it to be a coincidence that Amanda Latonia is on the cover the this months Muscle and Hers Fitness when I put her on my blog when I first started it. This must be some kind of sign that I will follow in her footsteps as the next fitness cover girl...Just a thought.

Comments-Didnt get in my planned cardio workout but I did play basketball. Would you believe that the pics are up for the challenge and there are millions of people. I mean millions. I couldnt even count how many. Maybe people do read this magazine. Everyone just started looking the same as I scrolled down and down and down. I have to make a super dramatic transformation to be pulled from the crowd. Although they said only judges were making the decision. Now they are letting people vote online as well. You should be able to find photos on the Muscle and Hers Fitness Website. If not, I will forward the email I was sent. I wasnt allowed to cut and paste the link here. This should be interesting.

Comments:
This was a good workout. Never did that many sets of bicep curls in my life. The program for the challenge only requires cardio 3 times a week to put on and keep muscle. It only took me about 35 minutes to finish. So all I have to do is "die" for less than 45 minutes. I can do that. I used positive self talk through out the workout, which worked pretty well. I know we like to stick to what we are used to but we have to try new things sometimes. I can embrace this new way of working out.
Going to buy some whey protein to supplement my protein. Tomorrow I will work on legs and abs. No cardio.

Comments: So, I got kind of stressed over entering those pics and felt the butterflies fluttering happily in the pit of inners but I hit submit and called it a day. I did get disappointed, however, when all I received back was "Thank you for entering, return in 8 weeks to submit you after shots"! That's it. I felt a little better after clicking on a forum and reading post from other contestants. This is not all about competition but bringing women together who enjoy exercise and challenging themselves. I am going to try to post on their forums and get to know others who are competing in my quest to become more social. By the way, others had trouble submitting the pics with the exact size they suggested and getting the newspaper date to be visible. Cool, I am not alone.

Kickboxing was fun. Everyone wanted to know where I got all the energy. One member thought that was the hardest workout she had ever done. Cool. I guess we have to workout like that next week too. My shoulder workout was pretty hard but I dont have to do it again until next week, which is nice. I did:
-Military Shoulder Presses on Smith: Added 20lbs
-Frontal Raises on Cable Column with Rope: 30lbs
-Rear Delt Fly Machinne: 30lbs
-Lateral Raises-12lbs
Did 3 sets of each
Tomorrow: Morning Cardio, Bootcamp with Joe, SCLA with Little Five, plus biceps and legs. Can I do all this?

My shoulder workout was pretty hard but I dont have to do it again until next week, which is nice. I did:
-Military Shoulder Presses on Smith: Added 20lbs
-Frontal Raises on Cable Column with Rope: 30lbs
-Rear Delt Fly Machinne: 30lbs
-Lateral Raises-12lbs
Did 3 sets of each
Tomorrow: Morning Cardio, Bootcamp with Joe, SCLA with Little Five, plus biceps and legs. Can I do all this?

Monday, May 3
B-string cheese, yogurt (4)
L-plain spinach, chicken pattie (2)
D-100 calorie bagel with 4 egg whites (5), coffee with splenda and cream (3)
Exercise: Plan to do shoulders after my presentation tonight and cardio if I can fit it in.
Comments: Eating that plan spinach was rough and 4 egg whites is alot to eat. My thesis is due today. Cant wait to put this time into working out. I bought a new dress today (size 6). Although it was pricey, I had to get it based on principle! It really makes me look slim in the waist. Had to have it. The ultimate goal is a size 4. Got some gold high heels to match. Splendid!
