Insanity Day 5: Pure Cardio

It's Day 5 of Insanity! Pure Cardio was today's workout and it was rough. I couldn't catch my breathe AGAIN! This time it is straight cardio...nonstop. The other workouts this week would do cardio circuits for a period of time and then you'd rest for 30 seconds. I'm hoping as time goes by and I get used to the workouts that I'm able to burn more calories. All the workouts aren't very long...about 40 minutes. I've been burning between 350 - 400 calories per session. 

Today's Meals:

M1: Berry Smoothie (1.5 scoops of Vega Sport Vanilla, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 cup frozen blackberries)

M2: Protein Pancake (1 whole egg, 2 egg whites, protein powder, oatmeal, a little bit of water)

M3: Salad (3 cups of mixed greens, 3 oz chicken breast, cucumber, 1/2 apple chopped, pecans, juice of 1 lemon) 

Nightly Ritual

Since watching the TIU girls talk about psyllium husks I have made it a regular routine to drink it. I'm now able to drink it with the new Almond Breeze Almond Milk Coconut Milk blend. It's AMAZING! The best of both worlds.

Go get you some...

I'm in LOVE!

Look what has finally made an appearance at my local HEB. I just had my first glass and all I can say is YUMS ;)

With only 45 calories per cup for the unsweetened version...you can't go wrong!

It's like a tropical fiesta in your mouth. AND my first cup included psyllium husks and again....it was YUMS!
