Tuesday was a fun day. I slept in a little bit and felt too lazy to get to the gym so I did this workout video at home. It is a great video and she has all three levels on YouTube for free. YouTube has some other great videos that I have done in the past (and will share later). They are perfect for anyone that doesn’t want to pay for a gym membership or is just feeling to lazy to get to the gym. Back when I used to live in NYC, I did YouTube videos a lot in the winter because it was always way too cold (in my opinion) to get to the gym before and after work. For this particular video I use a yoga mat that I bought at Target and some weights I bought on Amazon for around $15.

Nutrition was pretty good (aside from the tremendous amount of candy that I ate). I had organic cereal with organic milk and two handfuls of blueberries for breakfast.

For lunch I had a salad with spinach, mixed field greens, red onions, tomatoes and cucumers and a little ranch dressing. I also had two freshly baked rolls. For dinner I had half of a salad and half of a pizza from Brixx Pizza. Like I said before, if y’all only knew the amount of Halloween candy I ate it would completely blow your mind. I had a banana for a snack and drank a ton of water throughout the day.

Today was much better in terms of candy. I had none and it is officially out of our house. Phew. For breakfast I had organic cereal with organic milk, a handful of blueberries and a banana. For lunch I had an organic bean and cheese burrito, hummus with thin pretzels and a pumpkin greek yogurt. It was OK. I am not a huge fan of pumpkin flavored things, though. I thought the Limited Batch Watermelon this past summer was incredible.

For dinner I had spaghetti with steamed green beans and garlic bread on the side. Just one cheese stick for a snack today. And as I look back I wish I had incorporated a little more protein and veggies into my day. I think that is going to be a constant struggle for me this next year.

My fitness included a toning class, a half mile walk around the indoor track and two miles on the stationary bike. I stretched and rolled for a bit. My knee has actually been bothering me today and I cannot figure out why. It better be better tomorrow because I have an intense day planned for fitness.
