Day 47/48
SATI woke up just before 6.30 in the morning but stayed in bed until 8. Yesterday I planned on going to yoga but when I woke up, I decided to scrap the idea and be a potato - hence my extended time in bed LOL. After watching many Snaps, Youtube videos and Instagram vids, I decided that I should get myself to the gym and just /do/ something, you know. And that's what I did. Workout 10 minutes on the treadmill at 6km/h 1x5 10kg front squats 1x5 15kg front squats 2x5 17.5kg front squats 3x5 20kg front squats 2x100 single skips 1x10 20kg deadlift 3x6 25kg deadlift 1x20 sit ups with 5kg weight 1x20 leg raises 1x20 straight leg sit ups with twist 10 minutes on the stationary bike Today and tomorrow's intention is to:
If I get all this done and dusted, I should be good to take a complete day off from uni work and spend it with my bestie who's coming down to Syd from the NT (different state)!
SUN
OUT OF OATS THIS MORNING. At first I was kind of like "oh that's alright.. i'll just have some banana icecream or an acai bowl" and after having an acai bowl, I still feel unsatisfied. So I ate crackers with peanut butter then the remaining bits of Nutella that I had. This morning's breakfast was definitely greater in amount than my usual oatmeal but it was just unsatisfying. And now i'm rethinking my whole nutrition aspect etc. My body is feeling at it's lowest.
I've been researching all morning (and have neglected my assignments), trying to find a sustainable and suitable "diet" (not trying to find a fad diet, but just to learn more about nutrition, portions etc). I came across the Zone diet. It sounds reasonable however it's negative perception of bananas is disheartening. Nonetheless, I think i'll try this diet out and see how it goes. I feel as if HCLF 2500 calories is not working for me. I'll still be eating plantbased and trying to reach for wholefoods when I can but I don't think i'm going to eating like how I used to. And it never really occurred to me until now that pushing to over-eat is just as insane as restricting food. Anyways, whilst being on the Zone, i'll be eating at around 10 'blocks' of eat macros (40:30:30). And after a week, I shall update on how I feel and everything! Now let the meal prep being!! |
