Back to Square One

So...I think that I was over zealous that first day with Ugi and really wasn't smart.  I felt so terrible for the rest of that day and all of yesterday that I think that I'm so very out of shape that I'm not even up to doing that workout.  So after thinking about it for awhile what I am going to do is follow the food part and to Jillian Michael's workout to work my body up to Ugi...yep I'm that out of shape.  Pretty pathetic hey!  >_<
Well...I refuse to remain as pathetic...so that is my solution. :)

Ugi Week 1 Day 1

Well today I started a new fitness routine. I started doing Ugi Fit. It's a great program and I'm excited to do it. It's a fitness and eating program :). I am doing both. I still have weight to lose (a fair bit actually!) and so...off we go!
This morning was my first go at it and I have to say at the end I was discouraged to see just to see how out of shape I actually am. I mean I know I'm out of shape but I guess I didn't realize just how out of shape until this morning. I had to modify some of the exercises and I just wasn't even able to do others...ugh (that word is so close to ugi but with such a different meaning, eh!) Hopefully in 6 weeks I will be saying ugi!!! instead of ugh and be well on my way to achieving my goal.
For the eating part today (so far) I have eaten (all organic):
breakfast: a kale, tomato egg white omelet, with a whole grain slice of toast with almond butter on it, coffee sweetened with vanilla cream stevia and coconut milk, and a portion of yogurt
lunch: tuna with pickles, celery, and tomato on a celery stalk and a slice of whole grain bread.
and my plan for supper will be something along the lines of: chicken breast, quinoa, and broccoli.
I had 2 tbsp of Udo's oil (which is actually made by Flora who produces all their stuff just over the border 20 minutes from us) and disgustingly enough I think it pretty much went right through me (TMI, I know!). I think next time I'll make it into a salad dressing or something.
So off to a stellar start...I think I will try and update this every day for this one...just for kicks...just to let you know how I'm doing and to keep my self accountable...to myself ;-). Perhaps I'll get a picture up in the next few days.
