21 Day Fix - Day 3: Lunchtime Shennanigans

Today was day 3 of the 21 Day Fix. So far so good. I'm feeling very optimistic about the program and I'm really hopeful that I'll finally start seeing some results. Referring to the Fix as a "program" comes off a little cultish to me. From the outside looking in, it may seem like I'm attempting some sort of quick detox weird diet thing. NOPE.

I'm eating the same stuff I always do, only I've cut out most of the sugar, and I'm eating it in specific quantities. Some of you may now be thinking that I am just cutting a ton of calories. NOPE AGAIN.

I'm actually struggling to eat all this stuff. I tell you, finishing the day with 2 green and a red is really difficult and I feel like I've overdone it with food. There's no worry that I'm going to waste away here.

Anyway, yesterday I worked out during my lunch break, and did PiYo Buns. It was a toughie and boy, I tell you I'm feeling it today. I'm moving around like an old person and if the zombie apocalypse showed up today, I'd be toast.

I took the time to tidy up my office's classroom in order to make myself a "studio" where I can work out. I've been doing exercises in there for ages, notably with the company of my Laboratory Manager, but actually clearing out the tables and chairs and putting the DVD up on the projection screen really made the workout a tranquil experience, especially with the fluorescent lights turned off. 

Plenty of room for flailing.

Yesterday's meals:

Breakfast: Breakfast burrito with eggs, feta, spring mix, and sauteed mushrooms, along with a fruit cup and sweet & spicy tea. (1 Red, 1 Green, 1 Blue, 1 Yellow, 1 Purple, 1 Tbsp)

AM Snack: An Apple (1 Purple)

Lunch: Veggie Burger and quinoa (1 Yellow, 1 Red)

PM Snack: 2 hard boiled eggs (1 Red)

Dinner: Meatloaf with ketchup and roasted Brussels sprouts (1 Red, 1 Orange, 2 Green, 1 Tbsp)
