Eating bad habits

I warned you that I would be eating pizza the next day— It was due to the fact a couple of co-workers of mine at this new job wanted me to try this taco pizza and I had never had it but I love tacos and I love pizza, so I was all in. I couldn’t say no to pizza, very hard habit to break. lol. Everybody has their vices; pop, cake, pasta, cigarettes, etc. & mine is pizza. A good pizza is one way to my heart. Well, anyways, we ordered the pizza and also decided to order some parm bites, which wasn’t my idea but I went along with it since I had never had them, and both were VERY GOOD! lol Not the best towards my macros (my macro goals went out the door the whole damn day) I knew I wouldn’t hit my goals and would ultimately end up being over in everything by A LOT. l made my choice, I deal with the consequences in doing so. 

12AM: Work break 

  • East of Chicago taco pizza (2 slices)
  • East of Chicago parm bites (3-4)
  • East of Chicago marinara sauce

2 slices of pizza/Calories: 440, Carb: 48g, Fats: 20g, Protein: 18g

3 parm bites/Calories: 120 

2AM: work lunch break

1:30 PM (lunch at home)

  • Kroger original instant oatmeal (2 packets)
  • kroger sugar (1 Teaspoon)
  • Kroger 2 percent milk (1/3 cup)

8PM (Dinner at home)

  • Arby’s half pound roast beef sandwich

Arby’s curly fries/Calories: 400, Carbs: 47g, Fats: 22g, Protein: 5g

It’s safe to say Thursday was full of bad choices. I ordered Arby’s because I had gotten home late and I had less than a hour to get around for work, so it was the quick route and closest to my house. 

  1. Total calories consumed: 2537
  2. Total Carbs consumed: 248g
  3. Total fats consumed: 104.7g
  4. Total protein consumed: 105.60g

Thankfully, I considered Thursday to be moderate activity level — which means I still had to meet these macro requirements: Calories: 2115. Carbs: 264g. Fats: 59g and Protein: 132g

Nothing but the treadmill

Normally I am not a fan of the treadmill, but due to the stair climber being taken and wanting to add variety, I decided to give it a go. 

Warm up:

  • Treadmill: 10 minutes, no incline, slow speed

Workout:

  • Treadmill: 20 minutes total. I did interval training, 3 minutes running speed at 5.5, no incline then 1 minute walk at 3.0 speed (alternating until I have reached 20 minutes)

Overall. I was kind of nervous my running skills and cardiovascular wouldn’t do very well with today’s workout, but I did really well with the endurance aspect of it, I can’ t say i’d run 5 miles non-stop but I think having ran 3 minutes after every minute was challenging, yet satisfying.

365 Day Self Discovery challenge — Day Three

9.05.18

Today’s question was somewhat like the first question but allows lead way with the answers, and due to the small amount of time I have to write this post, I am going to get right to the point & try to explain as I go. 

  1. I consider myself loyal, to those I love (friends, relationships, family) 
  2. Outgoing, willing to try new things & explore new places — new hobbies
  3. A good listener
  4. Inspiring/motivating, I love when I am able to push someone to do something they didn’t think was possible for themselves or had a lot of self doubt about; being their cheerleader. I have always been told I am an “inspiring” person.
  5. I’m personable, people tend to feel very comfortable around me, I am easy to talk to & it makes it easiest to make friends. 

For now I listed 5 , because I want to stay humble & not give too much away — I think these traits are good traits but come with their cons depending on your perspective. I challenge you to answer this question in the comments, or post about it & tag me or give it a thought in your private time and see what you come up with! Thanks for reading, looking forward to chatting with you all tomorrow!
