After Week 6 of Insanity Blog

Weight I’ve lost: None. I stayed right at 163.5

What Hurts the Most: Not much, really. My body seems to be adapting to the workouts. However, for a short period following the “Core Cardio and Balance” DVD, my shoulders and legs hurt. If anyone’s done Insanity, they know what I mean.

What I did: Did a couple 2^nd month workouts, then once I travelled to California, I did Core Cardio and Balance, which is only 37 minutes.

Diet: Breakfast: Small bowl of cereal or oatmeal usually with a banana. Snacks: Sometimes I didn’t have one, but they varied. Lunch: Varied, but I had leftovers a lot and sandwiches. Dinner: Varied, I ate out quite a bit, but tried to watch what I ate. I stuck to high protein, low-fat options if possible. My biggest splurges were when I ate out, either at Chevy’s (Steak tacos) or Mary’s Pizza Shack (Meatloaf Sandwich). I drank mostly water, but I also had green iced tea and orange juice (on the plane).

Summary: I didn’t expect to lose weight this week, and I don’t really expect to next week, either. I ate out quite a bit (on average once a day). I also had fewer meals (but larger ones), which is not what I have been doing the past month. I hope to get my diet back down to eating five small meals a day and I will be eating out a lot less. The Cardio and Balance workout really got pretty easy the 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th times I did it. Now, it’s onto more 2^nd month workouts. Back to a regular schedule and a diet that (mostly) fits into my plan.
