Eryn’s Epic Hero Training Montage!

[Eryn]

Hello adventurers ⚔️ 

 

On this 18th day of April 2020, I begin my food and training log, as a way to ensure accountability!
 

I am a girl (or woman?) in my 20’s, 5’4", and 124 lbs. I have always been physically fit — I have a black belt in taekwondo and I have run a mile in 7 min 15 seconds. 

 

However, those milestones were achieved back when I was a teenager. Throughout my college years, I lacked the time management skills necessary to balance academics and physical activity.

Now that I am back home, I hope to regain my former strength and become even stronger than I used to be.

 

I do not wish to completely cut out any particular food groups from my diet; I rather want to simply practice moderation and limiting my consumption of processed foods. I also wish to use this time off to exercise 7 days a week, for 45 min each day, doing both cardio and strength training.

 

 

So...first of all, my food intake for today:

 

Morning:

• 1 bagel with cream cheese
• 1 cup of tea with milk
• 1 glass of protein, fruit & veggie shake

 

Afternoon: 

• 1 small bowl of fried rice with broccoli
• 2 small baked potatoes (seasoned with salt, pepper, and olive oil)
• 1 large cup of coffee with oat milk and 1 spoon brown sugar
• 1 bowl of chickpeas (Indian style)

 

Evening: 

• Jelly beans (~130 cal, 30g sugar)
• 5 small slices of homemade, thin-crust veggie pizza
