Worst & Best Foods

This morning i got up and worked out at 5am. I did the stationary bike and elliptical. I also lifted today , worked on my lower half. Legs/quads/hamstrings. I feel good!!

Check out these links:
10 Worst & Best Foods

and

The 20 worst foods in America
This is really good information. It helps people see how many calories are in lets say…chili fries, or your fav burger from your fav restaurant. Go check it out!!! you will be shocked!

For example:

19: Worst drink
Jamba Juice Chocolate Moo’d Power Smoothie (30 fl oz)
*900 calories 10 g fat
*183 g carbs (166 g sugar)

Jamba Juice calls it a smoothie; we call it a milk shake. In fact, this beverage contains as much sugar as 2 pints of Ben & Jerry’s butter pecan ice cream.

Turn Down the Power: Seventy-five percent of this chain’s “power smoothies” contain in excess of 100 grams of sugar. Stick to Jamba’s lower-calorie All Fruit Smoothies, which are the only menu items that contain no added sugar. And always opt for the 16-ounce “small.”

or

17: Worst ‘healthy’ burger
Ruby Tuesday Bella Turkey Burger
# 1,145 calories 71 g fat
# 56 g carbs

We chose this burger for more than its calorie payload: Its name implies that it’s healthy.

The Truly Healthy Choice: Skip burgers entirely (few at Ruby Tuesday come in under 1,000 calories). Instead, order a 9-ounce sirloin with a side of steamed vegetables, and keep things under 1,000 calories.

YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lunch: at work, its a salad, or lean pocket, or ill bring in some campbell soup.
Dinner:Baked chicken with veggies. My dinner is usually about 300-400 cals total. I dont crave as much anymore. My body is getting used to having lower calories.

Gym: I did spinning class this week with my friend Janessa,I love spinning and i worked out 5 days straight!
