Once I get to the grocery store Wednesday I will be able to hit my macros better - still eating too many carbs for my liking. And finally all the wine is out of the house so no alcohol this week either! :) Turbofire as usual, WITH weight training 3 days this week and maybe a run twice or thrice. Goals for you?

    Don't be shy about trying cauliflower. Lots of chewing w/ few calories.


    Training plan for this week: The fun part!

    Mon - strength work w/trainer - done
    Tues - run. longer speed intervals (15min blocks)
    Wed - strength homework
    Thurs - run. ladder blocks.
    Fri - easy run
    Sat - longer run

    Food Plan this week: The challenge!
    Focus on fat grams to stay closer to 45 grams/day. Average daily total lately has been too high.

    Going to be a busy week at work, so my goal is to not use it as an excuse to skip morning workouts. Plan to go to the gym at least three days (one down two to go) and walk the other two days. Fell off on my water drinking a little last week so still working on that this week. Maybe work on getting a little more fruit and vegetables into the rotation

    Crazy week with clinicals. I'm just trying to plan out the food in advance and get by. So far 2/3 days have been good.

    nmn24 - Nice! Glad you enjoyed it. Since you did, let me give you an easy recipe: Take a whole head of caulflower, core out the bottom to remove green leaves, etc. place on cookie sheet. Brush or spray a light coating of olive oil, then a bit of salt, pepper and chili powder or similar seasoning (cajun rub, or any spice you like is good) Bake in 350 degree oven for an hour.
    When cooked, the result is a nicely browned head of cauliflower with a bit of spicy flavor. Very easy side dish to make.

    Well I didn't quite make my goals last week, life rather got in the way...

    I managed all 3 x 3 mile power walks, but only 2 out of my planned 3 yoga sessions. And I had to skip my swim as my daughter wasn't very well.

    I did well on my 5 a day though.

    Never mind, new week new start...
