Group cardio day! It's absolutely beautiful today so we worked out outside. Walked/ran a bit, some drills, etc. I was actually able to go upstairs afterward for 20 extra minutes of cardio. I left feeling very sweaty, which according to Jackie, means we had a great workout. :)
I got a little out of form on some of my reps yesterday when I was working with Wade. I could tell today. I have some weird twinges throughout my core today. Proper form people! It's so important. I was dragging at the beginning of my workout yesterday so I started (unconsciously) compensating by pulling my body in ways it shouldn't have been going. That's how people end up with injuries, which stinks. I only did it a few times, but that's all it takes. I'm going to be much more deliberate on my movements tomorrow, even it that means I need to go a little slower.
I am completely stuffed tonight. The other contestants and I have talked about this quite a bit. So far I've averaged about 1400 calories a day and I feel like I'm eating all day long. My BMR test tomorrow is probably going to tell me I need to be eating 2000, which I'm going to need some help with. I don't know what to add to my diet (and when) to get more (healthy) calories. I've been losing weight while eating more, so I know they're right about needing to "fuel my machine," but it is so hard to change your mindset that the way to lose weight is to eat less. For several of us, we haven't been eating enough for so long that our metabolisms are shot.
I'll tell you about my BMR test tomorrow. :)
