Yesterday was Super bowl Sunday and fast Sunday so by the time we got home I was dead tired and didn’t get my bog in. So I’ll try to make up for it today. Yesterday was a long day. Because it was fast Sunday I didn’t eat until my normal Meal 5 and I really felt the lack of calories in this morning’s workout. After the fast, however, I normally binge eat but I made sure to stick to my normal meal portions and got enough fluids in me that I made it ok without binging. I had my food prepared with me during the game as well. While all the snacks were out there I managed to keep I fed and avoided any pitfalls. I got some weird looks from family members but they know the deal and what I do. So I feel really good about that. I was, and am still, craving a double fillet-O-fish from McDonald’s for some reason. That has to be one of my most favorite sandwiches. Anyways, today’s workout was good. I didn’t have as much energy as normal and I think because I didn’t my total calorie count in yesterday but I was able to push myself and get a good pump. I also had to do a little traveling for work today, my day off, so I had to plan my meals accordingly. I needed to be in Orem by 8:30 and I wouldn’t be home until around 3pm. So I prepared and ate meal 2 right before I needed to leave. I packed 2 meals to take with me. I ate meals 3 and 4 during a job fair I was attending. Then I was able to get home in time for me to get my meal 5 in before I got too hungry. Sometimes due to schedule or poor planning I don’t get my meals on schedule and when I go too long I get really hungry but I also get headaches. Today I was able to prevent that by getting my meals in and especially my fat portions which balance out insulin levels and keep my blood sugar balanced.
I also started drinking Powerade Zero. It tastes great has 0 fat, 0 carb, 0 protein, 100 mg sodium per serving, no sugar, no high fructose corn syrup, loaded with electrolytes, and best of all 0 calories. I try not to drink too much just because I like to drink a lot of water but Powerade Zero is the ish.
Here’s a list of today’s meals and times. Below is tomorrow’s workout. Legs days make me nervous but I love pushing through it. Reps increase to 15 for each set so really improving the conditioning of my muscles. I feel like I’m making great progress and I’ll upload updated pics this weekend.
