Les Mills Combat Round 2 Day 4

Breakfast: Turkey, Cheddar, Egg Scramble, 3 egg whites and one whole egg was quite delicious! I had a protein shake for a midmorning snack and a Chicken Pita for Lunch! Then I had Mediterranean Eggs for an afternoon snack, which were hard boiled eggs, yolk removed and filled with hummus! Quite delicious but I was traveling so I didn't get a picture, I was eating on the go!!
And Dinner: Tuna on Salad with one egg and feta cheese, with a boiled potato on the side! Not the best ever but not the worst! ;)

And yesterdays workout, Shock Plyo & Stretch and Strength!

Les Mills Combat Round 2 day 3

Nutrition, nutrition, nutrition!! Today I pretty much repeated meals I've already had, couldn't take another surprise dislike such as that cottage cheese! ;) 

So I had Pro Oatmeal for breakfast, Turkey Breast and Rice Cake for 1st snack, Chicken Pita for Lunch, and Steak on Salad again for dinner! 

I did have  a roast beef and whole grain bread sandwich, plain, for my 2nd snack which is a little different than the suggestion in the book but I didn't want another pita so I ate whole grain bread instead. I figured that couldn't be too awful bad for me!  

The thing I've missed most while attempting this plan has been the lack of condiments and bread at dinner! ;) I usually have toast with every dinner, now don't go crazy its always whole wheat toast! 

Anyway, I've been sticking too it about 90%, I've made a few substitutions here and there especially with the raspberries. I don't like them and they cost 4x's more than strawberries and, I'm sorry, I'm just not going to pay that much to eat something I don't like!! Also, I've been adding a handful of carrots before bedtime because I like to watch TV in bed and when I'm just lying there my mouth needs something to do! 

Today was Combat 30 and Core Attack so, without further ado, here it is!

Les Mills Combat Round 2 Day 2


Breakfast: Broccoli and Feta Omelet, it was gross!

 
Chicken, Feta, Lettuce and Hummus Pita, it was Delicious!!

 
I left my book at work today so I made up what I thought was close to the snack in the book and it was cottage cheese strawberries and 1/2 whole wheat toast with all natural peanut butter. the Cottage cheese was nasty, but everything else was good!


Dinner was also kind of made up since I forgot my book but it was a chicken salad with hot sauce!

And the Workout!!

Les Mills Combat Round 2 Day 1

Hello again! I am so excited to get back to Les Mills Combat but not so excited about the nutrition plan to be honest! 

Here are a few pics of what I ate during the day before and after my workout! I'm following the 1200 calorie plan as laid out in the Les Mills Combat Nutritional Guide. 


This is Pro Oatmeal, breakfast, I used chocolate protein powder with yolk-less boiled eggs, topped with paprika and bonfire sea salt, and strawberries.

The brown rice bowl with chicken, peas, corn and chili sauce, which I thought would be spicy but was sadly disappointed,... this was lunch



 And finally dinner consisted of a salad topped with steak and some strawberries on the side. 

I also had two snacks, a protein shake and multi grain rice cakes with all-natural peanut butter. That exact combo of rice cakes and PB wasn't in the Combat booklet but I was tired and just wanted food after my workout! Both items are on the guide so I figured it couldn't be too bad for me! LOL!


Its only for a week but I'm dying already! Not really but you know what I mean!! ;)


And of course, here is the workout!

Post Les Mills Combat 60 day Challenge!!



As I expressed in my video, I only lost 6.5" on this round. I know that it is entirely my fault that I didn't get better results due to my lack of nutritional eating but I'm OK with that! Because now I know I can do this program and this time I will stick to the eating plan and not just the workout plan!! I will say that I have never done an exercise program that shaved any inches off of my arms but with Les Mills Combat I got 0.25" down on each arm and that is awesome! Here's to another 0.25" off my arms!! 
  ;)
Totals:
     Hips: -1"
     Waist: -1"
     Thighs: -2" each
     Arms:  -.25" each
Below are some before and after photos but like a dork I stitched them together after picture on the left instead of the right! duh! You can see a little bit of difference but its miniscule compared to what I hoping for in the months to come!!
