My Eating This Week

Here's this week's meal plan. OK, it's more of the same.... I did a pretty good job staying on plan this past week, except Friday night I had Saturday night's free meal, so Saturday night I ate Friday's healthy meal. It's always good to have a plan but also good to have a bit of flexibility--within reason.

This is also downloadable as a Word document on the Fitness Tools page.

New Fitness Tools

I've updated the Fitness Tools Available to Download page and added a few more things. I separated the generic rotations from the more specific ones, so those are two different documents now. I also have another one that is just listing what I'm currently doing (more for my benefit than anything). I've also got my current meal plan on there and a meal plan template for planning the week. I print this one out to write out what I actually eat. I'm still looking for recipes to add to the recipe lists, so send them on if you have them.

First Day Back on Body for Life

Today I started Body for Life again. As I mentioned in a previous post, this time I'm not doing the workout plan (though I am working out, of course) but I'm focusing on the eating plan. (I got this idea from fellow blogger friend Betsy). So far so good. Of course it's only been one day.

Here's what I ate today:

7 am: Coffee w/ raw sugar and skim milk (nope, not ready to give up my coffee--rarely have more than half the cup I pour every morning, though)
8 am: Kashi Go Lean Crunch w/ blueberries & skim milk
11 am: Special K protein bar
2 pm: Tuna salad (OK, not much of a salad--just tuna, mustard, dill relish), apple w/ Tbsp. peanut butter
5 pm: Cottage cheese, carrots
7 pm: Protein pancakes (recipe from Eating for Life) with raspberries, strawberries, & sugar-free syrup
9 pm: Dannon Light & Fit yogurt

This was all pretty close to plan, though maybe I could have done a better tuna salad. Also, I drank water but not as much as I should. I'll do better on that tomorrow.

I keep forgetting I need to add more recipes to the lists I started on my Fitness Tools Available to Download page. Does anyone have more to send me?

Jari Love Weight Worksheets

I finished the Jari Love weight worksheets today. Well, I finished what I have anyway. I don't have her Get Ripped 1000 so I didn't add that one (personally didn't care for that one--used to own it but sold it). If anyone out there who owns that workout wants to send me the info for it, go ahead and I'll add it. Many thanks to fitness friend and blog reader Darlene from Idaho for sending me the Slim & Lean info (I didn't have that one at the time) which I added to the spreadsheets.

So, if you want your own Jari worksheets to keep track of weights you use with her workouts, click to download Jari's Weight Worksheets.xls for the Excel worksheets or Jari's Weight Worksheets.doc for a Word document version. You can also always find them on the Fitness Tools Available to Download page.

Get Ripped!

I did Jari Love's Get Ripped today for the first time in a long time. I don't know why it's been so long because I really enjoyed it. It's probably her easiest workout, which is why I chose to start with it for my week of Jari, but it's still pretty tough. It's a total body workout, but it's one of those light weights endurance workouts rather than a heavy weight strength workout. I've been doing more heavy weights lately so it was nice to do a light weights workout again, just for the variety. Also, it's not a wimpy workout because of the weights being light, because she does a lot of reps. I like how well she flows from one exercise to the next. I also like how she lists the weights used on the screen. That was very helpful today as I put together a weight worksheet for the workout. That's part of why I chose to do 3 Jari Love workouts this week, so that I can make the worksheets for those particular DVDs. Once I have more of them done I'll upload them to the Fitness Tools page and of course I'll mention it here when it's ready.

Oh, and I'm pretty sore tonight--particularly the upper body.

Tomorrow is some kind of cardio, as far as ankle and knees cooperate.

I'm Plum Tuckered Out

Ya'll, I am so tired. Exhausted. I've been tired and ready to nap all day. So I'm going to bed very soon. I just wanted to mention that I am putting together another document of recipes on the Fitness Tools Available to Download page. This is not specifically for BFL, but just for clean eating (though the BFL recipes are all healthy and clean as well). So far I only have one recipe on there. I hope to add more as people send them or as I find them myself, so send 'em on if you've got 'em.

Now I'm going to bed early. Night.

p.s. Yeah, I know--my Texas upbringing is leaking out all over the place in my writing tonight--must be the fatigue.

Body for Life Recipes

I've added a Word document full of great recipes to the Fitness Tools Available to Download page. It's titled Recipes for BFL.doc and is near the top of the list. just click to download it. BFL is for Body for Life, my latest obsession. I got this list from both Banslug/Gayle and Bayerngirl/Belinda from the Cathe.com forums. It's got some nice meals for clean eating, not just for use with BFL. If you have more healthy recipes I could add or put in a new document, email me at fitnessfig@mac.com.
