That cauliflower/bean casserole really screwed me up! Of course I didn’t have to confirm that by eating it 3 times-!!!
I couldn’t decide what I wanted; so got some yogurt/granola and fruit at one of those gourmet delis. It was too much yogurt.
-small minestrone soup
-bought some salmon to have for dinner
-pan seared the salmon and had a big salad with it. It was delicious!
-had a great piece of bread with it too.
-had some low fat popcorn-about 300 calories worth
-3 glasses wine
Wkt.
60 min. on stepmill at just under 600 cal/hour

-Oatmeal with mixed nuts
-tea with 2 bags
-I was early for my first client (I tell personal trainers that it is easy to be on time; you just have to plan to be early-!) So I went into Zaybar’s on the upper west side and walked around. They have great food and I was thinking I was going from client to client and then working out, and then meeting a friend for a show so decided to buy grilled tofu and carrots/veggies.
-I ate that pretty quickly after that! Not a big serving; probably 8 pieces of tofu and veggies
-1 apple
-met a friend before the show
-2 beers
-jalapeno poppers (I love those things but most of the time they are disappointing, and these were not so hot)
-one glass of wine at home
-leftover cauliflower and bean casserole (don’t ask me why I ate the rest of it but I did)
Wkt
60 min. cardio
-30 min. on elliptical and treadmill incline walking

-back to the Starbucks oatmeal please! With mixed nuts.
-tea with 2 bags-at 8 am
-small barley veggie soup at 11
-small roasted veggie soup at 1pm
-I bought a payday bar at the airport leaving NY on fri. I have been thinking; those nuts I munch on are so high in calories! A payday bar is only 250 calories and they are good! Ok, so I took a few bites of that throughout the day and finished it.
-1 apple 2pm
-we still had one of the casserole dishes with the cauliflower and the intense bean/onion/cheese mixture in the freezer from last week. I wasn’t sure that it caused all the bloated/gas symptoms so I figured what the hell, I would try it again!!
-we had that with a salad/veggies and a taste test of 4 different veggie burgers.
-we tried Dr. Praegers, Morningstar, Boca burger, and Garden burger brands. The Praeger’s was the most like a vegan burger (that was the name of it-!); so it tasted the most like a simple soy burger; the rest were more veggie like; less protein. I like the more veggie ones better. I ate a total of less than 2 burgers total.
-but guess what? Not long after eating, I felt that bloating and thickness in my guts, and this morning felt very soft and bloated. Too many of those white beans with the cauliflower? Maybe it’s the beans with it; before we only made that dish with veggies and not beans.
-3 glasses wine
Wkt.
I had a cancellation in the morning (which I sort of anticipated because of the snow storm and schools were closed) so I went to the gym.
-did a metabolic workout because I didn’t have clothes change for pure sweat/cardio routine
-did circuits of 2 sets of alternating exercises
-lateral lunges with diagonal reaches
-dead lifts with rows
-squats and overhead presses
-curtsey lunges with lateral raises
-lots of core exercises
-seated rotations
-chops
-leg lowering

Egg white omelet with cheese, onions, peppers, spinach.
-1 bite of a small pastry-literally one bite!—hotel breakfast buffet1
-went to the airport and had a tortilla soup from California Pizza-I think its really good.
-one small bag chips (uh oh, more chips)
-one beer
-at the Vegas airport I had a soft corn taco with beans and lettuce, quac-it was really small and quite good!
-I bought a tuna sandwich at this flatbread place; small flat bread with tuna, onion, horseradish sauce, lettuce, tomato, cucumber.
-with another small bag of chips-that was on the plane about 9pm eastern time. Ok, not so great with the chips.
I felt so small and skinny even! I think whatever was bothering my stomach was finally gone. Felt great!
Went for a run in the morning. My legs felt tired from the wkt. the day before. Did 45 min. around the bay in San Diego; so freaking nice there!

Went to San Diego to film stuff content for ptonthenet.com’s new certification program; they are such a great group for educating personal trainers!
-ate a cheese/veggie wrap at 9am with small bag of potato chips (have not done the chips for a long time!) Traveling can be challenging with eating and drinking and I haven’t been gone for work for a long time in terms of air travel, so this will be interesting!
-tiny airplane bag of cashews at 11
-nothing until 7pm local time (10pm eastern time) -my stomach felt a little weird since all those beans the other night and the crappy creamy oatmeal the other morning…..!
-sun chips (I never really tried them thinking they were too cracker like-boy were they good!); I ate probably 1-2 servings.
-3 slices thin crust pizza -3 glasses wine
6 of us went to the beach in san diego and did a great workout with this new piece of equipment developed by Michol Dalcourt called VIPR; it was a metabolic wkt.; lots of squats and lunges with upper body moves, with this rubber tube-like device that gets your upper body and core really well. Did 2 rounds of 4 exercises; then one more round of different exercises. Then played a miserable game of touch football (never played before in my life!!) using Rugby rules; what a blast that was!
