30 Day Challenge: Day 1
This shirt came in the mail this afternoon. It is bonkers cute, undeniably.
Right... let's talk about today. I got up this morning, pumped milk in case Beans woke up while I was gone, and then went to the gym at 6:30 AM.
Workout #1
3 mile run
Bulgarian Split Squats: 2 sets of 10 each leg with 50 lb. barbell
Leg Press: 2 sets of 10 each leg with 70 lbs.
Barbell Squats: 2 sets of 10 with 95 lbs.
T-Lunges: 2 sets of 10 with 35 lb. dumbbells
Side-Lunges: 2 sets of 10 each with 20 lb. dumbbells
Deadlifts: 2 sets of 10 with 115 lb. barbell
Deadlifts: 2 sets of 10 with 115 lb. barbell
Rear Lunges: 2 sets of 10 each, alternating, with 20 lb. dumbells
This was not an inspired workout. I felt tired and bloated from eating poorly yesterday, and I moved lethargically between sets. Normally I wouldn't only do 2 sets of each thing, and normally I'd use heavier weights... but at least I hung in there and worked out. I could easily have scrapped it and gone home. But I kept reminding myself that this was going to be one of the hardest days: the first day.
Here's what I've eaten today:
6 AM: medium banana, 1 tbsp. organic raw almond butter (200)
9 AM: 3/4 c. scottish oatmeal, 2 tbsp. ground flaxseed, 1 tbsp. chia seeds, 1/3 c. organic goat yogurt, 8 oz. almond milk (430)
1 PM: 6 oz. new york steak (lean only), 1 c. cooked white rice (I know, it should have been brown... but it was leftover from our Cuban feast) (550)
And here's what I expect to eat later:
4 PM: salad with field greens, roasted zucchini and carrot, avocado, and mustard vinaigrette (200)
7 PM: pudla (chickpea and vegetable pancake) ... (?)
Alright. Ready for it? I had to wait until after I'd pooped to take these photos. Is this a thing that normal people do? Probably. Is this a thing that normal people talk about? That's irrelevant. There is a lot of talk about poop at our house. That's what happens when you have a four month old baby. Or, you know, the mind of a teenage boy. Or both. Let's do week 1 photos.
By the way, that's my favorite nursing bra. It's from Hot Milk. And those panties are ridiculous. Thank you, Heather. I love ridiculous panties. Especially purple leopard print ones.
Onward! The 30 days have begun!
