Diet and Fitness: 18th, 19th & 20th March 2011

Hey guys! Sorry that I’ve not done one of these in a while but I’ve been veryyyy busy (and lazy) so I thought I’d do a three day diet blog now!

Friday 18th March

I genuinely forgot to have breakfast lol, I was so busy rushing around to leave for my 10am lecture and trying to sort uni work out that I left my lovely banana at home haha.

Later that day I got some pretty bad news which just killed any hunger that I had so the only thing that I ate until my evening meal was a tomato and feta salad from the Student Union.

I then went to the gym to try and run off some stress. I ran for 10 minutes at level 9, and then walked fast on an incline for 10 minutes. I then went on the spin bike for 10 minutes, then did an abs workout, then went on the stepping machine for 10 minutes.

For dinner I had boiled vegetables (mushrooms, carrots, broccoli and spring greens) with herby gravy and three Quorn sausages.

Saturday 19th March

My friend Belinda has been trying to convince me that cereal is evil. Whilst I’m still of the belief that it is good for digestion and mostly quite healthy, 350-400 calories of carbohydrate is a lot to be having every morning, so I’ve pretty much given up all carbs and my breakfast is now an amazingly delicious fruit smoothie.

I’ll usually put in 1 banana, 8 pieces of frozen apple (equivalent to one apple) some mango or pineapple and 5 or 6 cubes of frozen natural yoghurt, quite a bit or orange juice, then a bit of water. It’s so nice, especially when it’s very cold. Its calorie value is probably about 250-300.

I then went to the gym and ran for 10 minutes at level 9.5 and walked for 5 minutes at incline 10 and speed 6.5. I then went on the spin bike for 15 minutes, did abs, arms (triceps) and thighs & gluts (squats, sumo squats). I then did 5 minutes on the stepper at level 5. Then I had a banana!!

I had dinner early because I was going out that night :D I had marinated tofu that was SO NICE! Even my boyfriend loved it and he’s not a vegetarian. But it’s quite expensive and just this small amount was almost 400 calories!!! I suspect that’s because it’s quite oily, but I tried to drain that afterwards.

I had the tofu with boiled vegetables and gravy. My gravy is so nice; it’s Bisto vegetable gravy granules then I add dried mixed herbs. (I probably have about 50 calories worth on a meal.)

When I went out I didn’t drink because of the bikini contest approaching; got to stay in shape! Even though my friends thought that I was boring lol. On the way home I went to Subway (I love the ones that say open until 3am) and got a salad bowl. Then when I got home I was still so hungry that I had three vegetarian sausages which is quite bad to eat so much so late but I had been dancing and it wasn’t carbs.

Sunday 20th March

Breakfast: No bananas, too lazy to go to the shops just for them so I substituted it in my smoothie with another apple, (it wasn’t that nice).

Lunch: 3 vegetarian sausages (yes, I eat them a lot but they’re only 57 calories eachI love them and I need the protein for muscle build) and 2 scrambled eggs.

Dinner: I’ve not eaten it yet! I assume it will be something boring, vegetarian and low calorie.

Gym: Not today! It’s my rest Day
