An update on the Inferno plan

I stepped on the scale this morning and it said 141.8!!!! I've lost almost 3 pounds and I am stoked! Also, I lost a half inch from my waist and another half inch from my hips!!! I am seriously motivated :)

I am adjusting the calories per day I simply cannot handle the 1200 cal limit and take my metfo.rmin as prescribed. I'm going to try 1400 calories today and tomorrow. Thursday is my birthday so not gonna worry about calories on that day. Friday I'll limit again and then on Saturday I might limit again, depending on my weight loss. Sunday, I will go back to eating normally and will also rest (no workout) on that day. Monday, back to normal Turbo Fire :)

Day 2 of Inferno

Total calories:1210
Breakfast-100 cal English muffin
70 cal organic egg
70 cal cheese slice
35 cal coffee with creamer
Snack- 35 cal coffee with creamer
140 banana with peanut butter
Lunch- 4 slices of ham, 1 slice of cheese, 1 tsp light honey Dijon dressing on a small flour
tortilla with 1 serving of baked potato chips (I wrote down this breakdown of calories
but left it at work
Dinner- 300 cal frozen meal (spaghetti with meat sauce)
Snack- 60 cal of animal crackers
20 cal of whipped cream

Exercise-55 Fire EZ (Turbo Fire)

Today I noticed that I was hungrier, probably because I was working and was on the go for the entire 8.5 hours that I was there. I kept reminded myself that it's going to be worth it in the end and I made sure to eat my meals and snacks slowly. Even though it's only been 2 days, I feel like I am starting to see a difference in my mid section, which is the part that needs some toning. I am seriously excited to see the results in the mirror late this week.

Day 1 of Inferno

Ok, so here are my before pictures and my before weight is 144.6 lbs. Also, my current measurements are 39 in (bust), 30 in (waist), 35 in (the poochy part of my belly) and 39 in (hips).

I switched the Day 1 and 2 workouts since it's easier for me to do 2 workouts on days that I don't work. So today I did HIIT 20 and 45 Fire EZ. I am actually proud of making it through both workouts and then having enough energy left to do yard work and house work :)

The 1200 calories is not as hard as I thought....at least not yet. For breakfast I had a Nutrigrain bar, med banana and coffee. Lunch was a pb&j with baked chips and an apple. My after workout snack was 1 cup of cereal with 3/4 cup of almond milk. For dinner I will be having a frozen meal....haven't decided which one yet. Yeah, I know that I am cheating by not cooking my own dinners but seriously, with the 2 kids I just don't feel like cooking 2 different dinners at night after I get home from work.

Ok, so there ya have it. Hopefully I will see a big difference after this is done. And yes, I'll be blogging everyday while I'm doing this :)

Inferno Plan-Turbo Fire, aka GET MY ASS IN SHAPE

I have less than a month until P gets home from Afghanistan. I am not at my goal weight or size. This makes me stabby.

Remeron has made me gain weight. Turns out it can slow metabolism, cause you to crave "bad" foods and can increase your appetite. Ummm, no thank you. I am stopping it and if I need something prescribed for anxiety I'll be asking for klonipin.

Tomorrow I will be starting the Turbo Fire Inferno plan. I will most likely not strictly stick to the meal menu but I will stick to the 1200 calories per day. Also, I will stick to the exercise plan:
Sunday: Fire 55 EZ Class, Stretch 10 Class
Monday: Fire 45 EZ Class, HIIT 20 Class, Stretch 10 Class
Tuesday: Fire 55 EZ Class, Stretch 10 Class
Wednesday: Fire 45 EZ Class, HIIT 20 Class, Stretch 10 Class
Thursday: Fire 55 EZ Class, Stretch 10 Class

Since Thurs is my birthday and I am going out with friends, I will not stick to the calories that day but I plan to extend the plan 2 days. So I will resume the plan Fri and Sat and will repeat Sun and Mon work outs on those days. My goal? TO decrease my belly pooch and to (hopefully) lose 5 pounds (the 3 remeron pounds plus 2 more).

Will this be difficult? Hell yes. Will it be worth it? Hell yes. I've seen other people's before and after photos...I AM PUMPED.
