Took 5 Days Off And Gained 10lbs. Seriously.


Oh yeah and I set myself back too.  Let me tell you all what I did.  I basically went on a bad food binge and guess what…I don’t regret it.  I put on about 10lbs in 5 days.  No joke!  It’s that easy!  I didn’t exercise either.  Ooops.

Hey, I felt like I needed a break from working out (so I’m going to logged the days I misses as days missed to be honest with myself – self spanking) and the food indulging part was totally not in the plan, but it happened.  I’ll tell what I ate and yes, I am very ashamed to do so…here goes.

1/18 – a whey-less shake (spinach, almond milk, strawberries, mangoes), 4 egg whites, 1 yolk, quinoa, black beans, salad (beets, apple, balsamic vinegar, EVOO, chicken breast, more black beans), apple, banana, natural peanut butter, 3 bags of skinny cow dreamy truffles, 5 Wendy’s nuggets, brown rice/quinoa mix, more chicken breast, broccoli, red beans, a bunch of Hershey’s Kisses, a rice cake – BAD! – 159.8lbs (I weigh myself every morning after 1st potty)

1/19 – a whey-less shake (spinach, almond milk, strawberries, mangoes), 4 egg whites, 1 yolk, broccoli, black beans, salad (beets, apple, balsamic vinegar, EVOO, chicken breast, more black beans), brown rice, quinoa, red beans, apple, banana, quinoa, more red beans, EVOO, a bowl of Cheerios (oh yeah – GLUTEN CITY), almond milk – NOT TOO BAD! – 161.0lbs

1/20a grilled chicken cobb salad w/ dressing form Panera Bread, apple, banana, lots of cajun fried french fries with ketchup, turkey sandwich (with mustard) on rye with lettuce and tomatoes, banana, 2 Drake’s Devil Dogs (I love these), grilled salmon, salad (EVOO, balsamic vinegar, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, green peppers) – BAD! – 162.4lbs

1/21no breakfast, a bowl of Cheerios with almond milk, 2 bags of skinny cow dreamy truffles, 1.5 slices of pepperoni pizza (so good…I love pizza), a bag of corn chips, a few grapes, fried chicken fingers, fried cajun french fries with ketchup, 3 Drakes cupcakes, quinoa, red beans, EVOO, more Cheerios with almond milk – SABOTAGE! – 163.2lbs.

The weight is going up and up and up…

1/22no breakfast, Wendy’s friend chicken cobb salad, 5 Wendy’s nuggets (I really don’t want to think about what’s in these nuggets), small Wendy’s fries, one chocolate muffin (so good), fried chicken fingers, a slice of cheese pizza, 3 Drake’s cupcakes, Prepridge Farms cheese fish crackers (lots) – WHO IS THIS WOMAN? I DON’T RECOGNIZE HER – 164.8lbs

1/23 – egg whites, 1 yolk, quinoa, black beans, chocolate cake (it had about 600 calories in it), grilled cheese on whole what with a tomato, fried cajun french fries, a garden salad with red wine vinegar and EVOO, 2 slices of cheese pizza, Vega pre-workout energizer supplement, a bowl of cheerios (this bowl was portioned 3/4 cups), almond milk (portioned 1 cup), banana – THE END OF MY DEMISE – 168.2lbs

I did my leg workout last night (1/23 – I never miss legs) and so that means I am officially back on track.  Between 1/18 and 1/23 (5 days total) I gained 10lbs.  Gaining weight is easy.  Sucks!  I put on fat and you can tell by all of the simple carbs I ate and plus I look like it.  The good news is that I’ll be 10lbs lighter in 5 days.  I know my body.  I know how to gain weight and lose it – do I like the yo-yoing?  No.  I won’t do this again.

It was fun, I must admit, but I am so over living unhealthy and I feel kinda sick to my stomach as I think about it so I’m back to my healthy and clean diet today.  My detox plan is down below.  So today’s meals look like this…

1/24 – low-carb & high in good fats

M1 – scrambled egg whites (4), broccoli (unlimited), black beans (1/2 cup), EVOO (extra virgin olive oil 1 TBSP)

M2 – banana (medium), natural peanut butter (1 TBSP)

M3 – chunk light tuna (2oz.), broccoli (unlimited), black beans (1/2 cup)

M4 – green apple, natural peanut butter (1 TBSP)

PRE-WORKOUT SUPPLEMENT – GOING TO NEED THE ENERGY SINCE MY DIET IS LOW-CARB & HIGH FAT TODAY

M5 – grilled chicken breast (4oz.), quinoa (1/2 cup), cauliflower (unlimited), EVOO (1 TBSP)

M6 – Yogi Ginger Tea, stevia (1 tsp)

TODAY I WEIGHED IN AT 165.8LBS DOWN FROM 168.lbLBS FROM YESTERDAY!  :)
