Just can't get enough.......food!!

{10 minute Turbo Kick warmup + 40 minutes CLX Burn Intervals + 20 minutes stretching}

I keep thinking about my run yesterday.  It was beautiful!  I'm grateful Justin got me some under armour for my birthday.  Although I feel very uncomfortable in the compression tights, they keep me so warm.  I wear shorts over them...still don't have the legs or the bum to wear them by themselves.  It was lightly snowing and it was just so relaxing!   Unfortunately I don't think I will be able to run much outside because, lets face it.....R-town rarely plows the roads, let alone their sidewalks. Boooo!  But I will take advantage of nice days!

Turbo Kick was great last night, 23 students showed up!!! HOLLLLLA!  It was so fun!  And a fabulous workout.  I really got into it and did quite a bit of shaking with my big booty.  It was a good time and I really let loose. 

Since I worked out extra hard yesterday with a run, lifting AND teaching TK, I was soooo incredibly hungry today.  Here's a sample of my typical "day after lifting" food journal:

7am- 1/2 cup plain oatmeal + 1/2 TBSP honey + fresh raspberries
9am- 18 raw almonds
11am- vanilla greek yogurt
1pm- whole wheat tortilla w/ seasoned ground turkey, cheese, lettuce, corn, black olives, some sour cream, onions,  & homemade salsa!
2pm- celery sticks + 1 TBSP peanut butter
3pm- 1 oz mozzarella cheese
4pm- honeycrisp apple
5pm- 5 whole wheat Ritz crackers
5:50-7pm-- ****hard core workout***
7pm- 1 slice 2 slices of pizza
...and I'm thinking I'll make a homemade smoothie a little later with some fresh pomegranate!    I seriously ate so much today...but that is one thing that is important when losing weight and burning fat--eating enough to sustain your body.  Days after I do lifting with ChaLean Extreme...I am constantly hungry.  But its good, it definitely boosts my metabolism.  Muscle burns fat!!  Do not be afraid to lift.  Cardio is good, but strength training helps to tone and build muscle that will burn more fat.  And it drastically boosts your metabolism.  I try to lift at least 2 days a week, sometimes 3.  Here's a ChaLean Extreme promo...its great!  And I love I can do it in my own home.  I'm totally intimidated at the gym....
