Insanity and Diet, Day 5

Insanity Day 5

Pure Cardio

Holy cow, this was the toughest workout yet. It's actually about 10 minutes shorter than the other ones and for a good reason. This one has you do the normal warm up and stretch session, then you do about 15 minutes of insane cardio, solid, no breaks. "15 minutes of cardio, pssshh, I can do that!" you say?! Um, well, you've never done Insanity and if you can get through the entire thing (with good form) without taking a break or passing out, then I will give you a million dollars*.

Diet Day 5

This day I knew that we were going to go out to eat for dinner, plus I was super busy with the kids, so I didn't eat my normal snacks (I don't really recommend skipping snacks, since they help keep your metabolism revved up, but that's just what happened for me).

Breakfast:
2 scrambled eggs
2 slices of turkey bacon
1 slice of whole wheat toast
1 tsp Soy Free Earth Balance

Lunch:
Chicken salad
about 1/2 cup chopped chicken from leftover rotisserie chicken (I used the thigh)
2 cups fresh spinach
2 Tbsp toasted almond slivers
8-10 mandarin orange slices
9-10 black olives
Honey balsamic vinaigrette

Dinner:
On The Border
1/4 order of guacamole
Chicken fajitas, no dairy or sauce (I made 1 fajita with guacamole, peppers, onions, and chicken, then ate a few extra chicken slices)
1/3 of the re-fried beans and rice that came with the fajitas
1 Herradura Grande Margarita**

After we got home and put the kids to bed, I ate the rest of the chicken, peppers, and onions from my fajitas. I probably went over my 1800 calories since I could never find nutritional information for the margarita.

*Just kidding, I don't have that kind of money (in other words, not an actual promise of any money at all), but if you can do it, I'm IMPRESSED.

**I'm over the legal drinking age. If you are under age, please don't drink.
