6:30 a.m. Protein Drink (PD), vitamins & supplements
10:30 a.m. Kashi hot cereal w banana
12:30 p.m. 1/2 cup sliced raw zuchinni/summer squash w 1 tsp nf sour cream ranch dip
2:00 p.m. string cheese
3:30 p.m. Amy's organic Brocolli/cheese pocket sandwich
8:00 p.m. 1 oz almonds
8:45 p.m. butternut squash soup w 8 crackers
I usually eat my almonds before going to the gym at 5 pm but since I ate my pocket sandwich so late I wasn't hungry...big mistake...got a headache while working out...convinced it was from not enough protein (eating the almonds on my way home took care of headache) also was too long of a time between meals...but I did do good at stopping eating after I ate the soup... I was full but my mind kept saying to eat more...but I didn't listen... If I can keep that up I will break the habit of mindless eating at night...

Workout: Part of my problem with journaling my workouts is that I don't know the names for what I do, but will give this a try anyway...

15 mins stretching. 25 mins Eliptical
Strength workout: 3 sets of 20 overhead tri with 30# weight (3x20/30)lying on bench...superset with 3 sets of 15 chest press with 20 #s( 3X15/20)...
3 sets of 12 bicep curls with 45# bar (3x12/45)...3 sets with 15 alternating arms with 20# weight (3x15/20).
3 sets of 9 incline bench chest press w 65# bar (3x9/65)
3 sets of 15 with 50# on sitting tri bar overhead (this is one of those I do but don't know what it's called...I'll have to take a note of name on machine next week) (3x15/50) 3 sets of 15 w 60# weight sitting tri dips (3x15/60)
ABS...on tower 3 sets of 20 leg lifts .. 3 sets of 20 crunchs on incline bench... 3 sets of 20 oblique crossovers...
