Day 4 of IIFYM

4

Alright, warning, some of you may be disappointed in me today.. I am prepared for it. On the bright side, some of you may not be so disappointed and will forgive me. Here goes nothing.

Calories consumed: 1618/1658

Calories burned: -735

Net calories: 883

Carbs: 140 grams/ 137 grams

Protein: 62 grams/155 grams

Fat: 93 grams/ 54 grams

Sodium: 3101 mg/1440 mg

Cholesterol: 102 mg/180 mg

sugars: 26 grams/24 grams

Fiber: 7 grams/23-31 grams

So yes, my carbs were over, my sodium was over, and my sugars were over (the worst combination) but I am not mad about this because I had a great workout and I treated myself to a new recipe that I have been craving and that is why my stuff is over. I apologize ahead of time if this upset anyone, I will do better and I am still learning so it will take me time before I perfect the IIFYM. At this point, I am just happy I am able to blog about it and share this with all of you because this will help keep me accountable and show people that I too make the same mistakes & I am in the fitness industry. 

Breakfast:

  • 2 oz of Italian bread
  • half of an smoked sausage
  • liquid egg whites
  • frozen cut broccoli 
  • shredded cheese
  • salsa
  • vanilla flavored almond milk
I didn’t eat lunch today, not because I was skipping but because I had class and didn’t pack anything for lunch and by the time I got back in town, it was time for dinner. 
Dinner:
  • Texas Toast (4 slices)
  • Pepperoni
  • Mozz. cheese slices (4 slices)
  • prego pizza sauce
I made a new recipe today (pizza grilled cheese) which is why my macros is off today, but like I said I am not upset about it, I knew beforehand it would miss and I had planned on it, especially after such a large breakfast (that I didn’t finish). I need to work more on my sodium intake, for whatever reason, I need to start becoming more health conscious of this, because it is bothering me more and more everyday when I go over the recommended. New goal of mine is to look at the sodium content when purchasing my groceries, this is very important to me. Well, other than that, I could have done better or made better options but I really wanted to try my hand at this new recipe and it turned out very well. I probably could of ate one and been decent for the night but I ate two sandwiches. Tomorrow is a new day!
Sincerely,
Your Fitness Blogger Shay-lon xoxo

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.

    1. Yes, thank you for the support!
      I realize that missing macros isn’t a “good” thing but I knew I would yesterday & so I wasn’t too worried about it. Today I am under my macros.. 🙂 (haven’t yet posted it)

    2. Yes, I totally agree. I will definitely do what I have to do and no matter what stay positive about it. This is about taking accountability of my choices and being able to learn from mistakes 🙂
