Phase 1 , Week 1 , Routine 4
Yoga X
Weight: | 289 lbs | - | Loss: | 9 lbs |
% Loss: | 3 % | - | Rate: | 1 % |
I successfully arose from bed this morning at the new time(3:30am) and got started with Yoga X. I quickly learned that 'flexible' is not a term that should be used in reference to me. I cannot yet touch the ground when I bend at the waist, keeping my legs straight. This really became a problem for most of the moves in the beginning of this routine. Every transitional move, that went from standing while touching the ground with your hands, to prone or a push-up position(and reverse), ended with me either falling into position or going to my knees in the transition. Even though I felt like my overall participation in this routine was low, I still found myself sweating. Hopefully I gained something in this first attempt at Yoga, and there is miles of room for improvement. I ended the workout at the beginning of the more advanced balance positions.
Diet:
- Crystal Lite - 20 cal.
- Lean Pocket - 270 cal.
- Lite Yogurt - 100 cal.
- Naked Fajita Burrito - 500 cal. (Big Lunch)
- Lemonade - 300 cal. (I wouldn't have drank it if I knew that it was 300 cal.)
- Baby Carrots - 70 cal.
- Large Banana - 125 cal.
- Lean Cuisine - 270 cal. (Small Dinner)
I attribute the lack of weight loss to the large lunch that was still in my gut for my afternoon weigh-in. The other days of the week, I had a small lunch before the weigh-in and afterward, a large dinner. Another factor could be the possibility of burning fewer calories in the workout this morning than the other workouts this week. I do believe it is better to have the larger lunch than the larger dinner though, so I will have to deal this this pause in progress and I should see a drop in weight return again tomorrow.
