Feeling Sick

Yeah, so I totally didn't go out today. I was all dressed and ready to go but I was feeling sick and it just kept getting worse. Like I was gonna throw-up any second. I ended up putting my pj.s on, taking a pillow from the bed and going to the couch, and getting a puke-bucket just in case. I lied down and I fell asleep for a few hours, I'm better now but still a little queazy. I'm not sure if this is from the juice fast, I'm thinking that it's more all the stuff I ate yesterday.

As for the fast, it's going fine I didn't eat anything today and I'm not really hungry, just feeling a little dizzy but that's all. I'm glad that I took it is easy today though.

Crazy

By the way, I forgot to mention that it was also a small personal success for me on Thursday because aside from being a great job for our pr agency, the people from the press who know me now for doing pr work were really surprised to see me also modelling there. It was the first time in god knows how long I've been in front of everyone with full makeup, miniskirt, tanktop, and heels, and the responses were in fact really good. I guess the reactions could best be described as "pleasant surprise", like some of the guys who actually know me really well didn't even recognize me at first glance and then they were like wow, look at you, so I'm pretty happy I got some attention :)

On the downside, the fact that I didn't lose any weight last week is really making me crazy! I forgot to mention that I taped up a piece of paper on the bathroom wall in front of the scale last week and would jot down my wieght every time I got on the scale. I was just looking at it again, and all the numbers are like 66-something, 65-something, 66-something, 65-something...
Argh! What more can I do?! I hope I see some changes with this juice fast, because if I don't see a 64 by Tuesday, i'm killing myself.

Fasting

So yesterday I just wanted to rest, I was really tired from the job on Thursday. All the wind and standing for so many hours under the sun really wore me out. Anyway, I totally binged yesterday. I mean really binged, like food was actually air. I was so bloated and in pain last night, and this morning I felt like I was having a food hangover. I just felt totally lethargic and gross.

Anyway, since despite all of my dieting and working out (with the exception of yesterday) I didn't lost ANY weight this week :( I've decided to do the juice fast. But this time I'm seriously going to do it for 3 days. I started today, so far it's been good. I'm gonna go out in about an hour and I'll be doing a lot of walking but I decided not to go work out today. That on top of the walking on top of the fact that I already feel sick plus the juice fast sounds like it might be too much. I don't wanna make the same mistake I did last time, so I'll just stick with the walking for now. Maybe I'll work out tomorrow though.

By the way, the job on Thursday went really well. All of the press was there so the company was really happy. I didn't really get to talk to the popstar, just said hello, but it was a fun event and I got paid which was awesome :)

My Current Diet: From here you can follow each week's diet as my dietician gives them to me.

This week we are back to the first week's diet (which you can see if you click the link below). However, there is a slight difference. One day, breakfast will be the same. But for the rest of the day I will eat 1 kg. (about 2.2lbs.) of only seasonal fruits (strawberries, cherries, apples, pears, nectarines). They can be mixed however you want and you can eat them when you want, just make sure that they are all you eat for the rest of the day and that you don't eat more than 1 kg. Do this for one or two days this week.

My Current Workout: from here you can follow my exercise program as my trainer give it to me.

This week is just cardio, after six days of this we will add wieght training.

Treadmill: 20 minutes with no incline, at a speed of 5.5

Stationary bike: 15 minutes at level 1, rpm around 70

Stairmaster: 8 minutes at level 1

Elliptical Trainer: 10 minutes at level 1, between 55-60 rpm

Rowing: 5 minutes

Be sure to keep your heart rate above 110 but below 130, this is best for maximum fat-burn. My trainer adjusts this each day as it gets too easy or difficult, adjust the difficulty by checking your heart rate. As long as you are between 110-130 keep going at that pace.

Don't change the amount of time or skip anything on the list. Even if you like one machine but hate another, do them all in this order. It is designed to charge your metabolism and impact all your muscles

Aside from the workout, I make sure to walk as much as possible whenever I can.
