Here are the results from todays workout. I still cannot believe that I burned over 600 calories in a 30 minute workout. The fact that I can push myself that hard unbelievable. I just keep telling myself that I can do this and yes it is hard but if I want to be in the shape that I desire I have to work for it. I think back to when I quit smoking and how hard that was. It was no different it took self control and I showed myself that I had that. When I look at my watch and see how many calories I have lost so far, it makes me want to push even harder because I want to see that number high.

What I am doing in a high intensity work out. When you work out and your heart rate is 60-80 percent of your maxium heart rate (220-your age mine is 183) you burn you calories from fat. When it is below the 60% then you burn your calories from carbohydrates. I want to burn mine from fat since I have so much so that is why I am doing the High Intensity.

Here is a snapshot of my calories lost after the workout

 This is one of the first really healthy meals I have made. It is a buritto shell ( I would have had whole wheat but mine went bad) I added black beans and then shredded chicken. Then there was a mix of millet (which is a while grain that looks like a seed) and spinach with salsa. I added fat free cheese, fat free sour cream and jalapenos and hot sauce. Everyone in the house loved it. Who knew eating healthy can be so good!
