Okay so I started my Recovery week with doubles. I had Kenpo that I missed on Friday and Yoga, which I have learned to hate. I'm thinking of replacing Yoga with a 45 min Palliates work out. So I have noticed that I have been dragging a little at work so I took Tuesday night off. I was in bed by 11:00 and I feel great today. So I will do Kenpo and Stretch X tonight. (I hope) Other wise I will catch up on Saturday. I'm looking forward to taking my 30 day picture. I'm not expecting a lot but I can definitely tell in my clothes. I haven't given up on my goal of 200 but I have told myself I won't be disappointed if I fall a little short. I know I must have gain some muscle. Besides, I have made it through 30 days of hard core working out 6 days a week. And still maintain a little bit of normalcy in my house.
So I will let you know more on Sunday after I take my pics.

So got up at 6:00 this morning to do Cardio. I have offically completed my 30 days. Yeah me!!!!
So as soon as my hubby wakes up I will take my pics. I haven't gotten on the scale yet but I will do all that together.
...And now tomorrow is day 1 of Phase II.

Snack time
As you may have noticed by reading "What I ate Today" I don't like fruit that much. I think in two week of blogging I have eaten 5 strawberries.
Low cal snacks
Turkey pepperoni 17sl 70c
Laugh cow lite any flavor 1 wedge 35c
Water crackers any flavor 5 70c
Turkey or ham deli thin slices 2oz 60c
Quaker Mini rice cakes 7-10pc 60-70c
100-CAL Popcorn 100c
Fat Free Lays 1 serv 70c
Protein bars
Okay so you all know how much protein bars cost. So there are a few ways to go.
South Beach Crispy Meal Replacement Bars 19g prt 210 c
They come in 3 flavors Vanilla, Chocolate, & Chocolate/ Peanut Butter. Target has them for about 6.50 for a box of 5 (about 1.30 ea)
The Grocery store seems to sell them for about 9.00 a box (about 1.80ea)
The Zone Bars I've only tried the chocolate /dark chocolate. 15g prt 180c
These are good but smaller than the South beach. You can buy these pretty much any where for about 6.00 a box for 5 ( about 1.20ea)
All the other sports bars came in with way to many calories or where 1.90 or more a bar.
Now your other alternative is to make your own. This will be the cheapest route.
We have made the ones with peanut butter and they are good but really high in calories. I will try and post the recipes. The lower in calorie one is made with rice crispy reg. or chocolate. We haven't tried these yet but I'll let you know how they turn out when we do.
Great substitutes
Store brand fat free cheese 30c reg cheese 70-100c
No calorie dressing 0c or Lite dressing 30-60c per serv (2 TBSP)/ reg calorie dressing 90-210 per sevr (2 TBSP)
Diet Soda 0c per serv. Reg soda 100c per serv. ( water is always better)
I like splenda but I don't reccomend having to much in a day. I actually like the sugar splenda blend. There is even a brown sugar and splenda blend. (Great on yams).
