Fit by 50 - Week 2 & 3

This week has been a period of learning and adjustment. I wasn't really feeling connected to the workouts I had planned so I created a Franken-workout from the pieces I did like. So now I present the plan going forward. Three days a week, no stressing about finishing the program "on time" and I don't have to worry about getting off track. I have my honeymoon in July and I'm moving at the beginning of September so I already know I'll be taking those weeks off.

I'm completely over tracking my food already. Hate it. HATE. IT. It's worse when I have a whole ass recipe I'm dealing with because I don't really have the time to log a bunch of shit into a nutrition calculator on my phone then convert it to points/bites and enter it in Healthi. I use Paprika Recipe Manager for everything. I bought it for my phone and my laptop, and I'd buy it for iOS if I had an Apple product. There's even a bookmarklet so I can send recipes to the app directly from Chrome. I love Paprika. The only drawback is that it doesn't have a nutrition calculator and I haven't figured out how to easily export recipes into a calculator I like.
