Day 11 - Yoga X

Day 11 is Yoga X. I have a love-hate feeling about this routine. I look forward to doing it, but when I am half way through, I feel that it is too long and I am ready to move on. This may be partly attributed to the low-calorie meal plan and not having enough fuel to keep me going for 90-minutes. The power-yoga moves for the first 50-minutes of the routine really wiped me out and I could barely get through the Power-Belly-7 moves at the end of it.

At this point it is my least favorite routine, yet it is one I will probably use often once I am through this 90-day challenge. But maybe not 90-minutes all at once.

I didn't take a recovery drink this time, and I am feeling it now. My back is sore and I am not sure if this is from the yoga or from the Day 10 routine. Either way, a recovery drink is needed after every workout.

Day 10 Diet:
Breakfast - protein shake
Snack - turkey pepperoni
Lunch - chicken salad, 2-cup of lettuce mix, 1-cup of gazpacho
Snack - protein bar
Dinner - Shrimp stir-fry

Is it weird that I dream about food every night? Most specifically desserts and chocolate. I guess its good that I can still enjoy these things in my dreams, but even then I feel guilty for deviating from the meal plan!

  1. I just read that I can have non-fat frozen yogurt (1/2 cup) or non-fat plain yogurt with honey (1 cup with 1 tbsp). Its not much but its something.
