Say YES to the Parmesan Pork Chops





Parmesan Pork Chops


Made these tonight and they were pretty good.  Simple quick and easy which is exactly what I love.  Since I did not get my workout in this morning I needed to find something to cook that would be healthy, quick, easy and not a lot of fuss.  These were perfect!!!!


Ingredients:

4 Boneless Pork Chops
¼ c. Parmesan cheese, grated                              

2 Tbsp dried Italian seasoned bread crumbs
¼ tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp dried parsley
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp fresh ground pepper
2 Tbsp Olive Oil






Instructions:
   
  1.     Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2.       Mix parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, paprika, parsley, garlic powder and pepper together in a bowl.
  3.      Put olive oil in a frying pan and heat on medium-high.  Swirl the pan to coat.
  4.     Dip each pork chop in the mixture.  Pat to make it stick if needed.
  5.     Add pork chops to pan and saute for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.  Place in a glass baking dish and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the internal temp reaches 145 degrees.  For us we like our meet to be at 160, but that was a little dry.  Next time we won’t.

My Shift Shop Results




My Shift Shop Results

 
I had been lazy for many many months now.  It had been forever since I actually committed to completing a program.  I had gained weight and was not feeling good about myself again.  A FEELING WE ALL FEEL WAY TO OFTEN.

So this momma was on a mission when school started back up.  I started day one of the brand new program Shift Shop. Shift Shop is a 3 Week program that get longer and longer each week. 

NUTRITION

I set out a goal to follow the meal plan with the program to a T.  I made notes, made my meal plans and got started.  I will be honest I was a little scared of the meal plan at first, because each week you upped your veggies and proteins, and went down in carbs.  It was not the veggie and proteins I was scared of, it was the carbs.  The first week you could have two containers of carbs.  By Week two you were down to one, and then week three was NONE, ZIP, ZILCH.  I did not know if I could actually go without carbs all week.  Surprisingly enough by week 2, I went ahead and started trying no carbs at all and it was easier than I thought.  I substituted the carbs with something else filling and that helped.  By Week 4 I had some outings planned and that did partake in lot’s and lot’s of carbs and alcoholic beverages.  But I had come this far, and already could feel my clothes getting looser.  So, I did not let that stop me from having a good time.

 THE WORKOUTS

Week 1 workouts were 25 minutes long and was a good way for me to get started.  It did not come easy, but working out never really does.  That’s how you know you are getting a good workouts.  You just don’t stop and come back the next day.  I liked going from cardio to weights every other day.  By the end of week one I was ready to step it up to 35 minutes.

Week 2 workouts were 35 minutes long and man was I really feeling it.  During these workouts I was wondering how I was going to be able to go to 45 minutes or even 50  minutes at the end.  But I kept going!!!  I may not have been on my A game some days, but I still got one heck of a workouts in. 

Week 3 workouts were 45 minutes long and man, I thought I was going to die.  Trying to stay quite at 4am when everyone was sleeping in my house was hard this week.  I have limited space and had to make room.  Still some of the things you do during week 3 were not the quite at all.    Again I kept going with no complaints of anyone waking up.  So that made me happy.  LOL

Week 4 workouts were 50 minutes long and are an option.  If you chose to do another round of Shift Shop you start out at week 2 and then use the 50 minute workouts during round 2.  But I went ahead and did week 4 instead with the 50 minute workouts.  It was a shocker to me that they really were not that bad at all.  Actually more of a push with weights and that was a really nice change.

The only thing that I did different from the actually scheduled calendar is, I did abs every day.  No, it is not always good to do abs every day, but I was on a mission.  I switched it up between Shift abs and Super Shift abs every day.

I was more than pleased with my results.  My 4 week progress was more than I expected.  Of course you always worry when you have cheat days, but we have to remember that it happens to everyone.  You can’t let one or two, or even three days get you down. Results are still happening no matter what as long as you keep going and don’t stop. 

RESULTS

I lost 7 lbs and 8.75 inches in four weeks.  You can’t ask for anything better than that.

 
Now I am ready to start round two of Shift Shop.  Those results will come soon.
