Week 2 - Nutritional Summary

Week2:

-This week I've been strict and keeping under 2000cal, until the weekend that is. By cutting out the peanuts I was able to keep the average fat amount to 23%. I could cut it less by switching to turkey bacon, but I use the bacon grease to cook the omlet.

Day 14

Today I had friends down and we split a bag of potato chips while we chatted. They were giving away free hamburgers at a local joint, so we went for one of those. Man this weekend was a steer clear away from the typical diet. Feelin guilty.

We got the groceries for the rest of the week and it came to just over $100. But then again we are only buying until thursday because we are going on a 4day vacation to go to a family wedding.

Day 13

Spent the day in the states shopping. No workout. Had left over curry for breakfast, and an olive garden entree for lunch/supper (split between the two).

Day 12

Today we switched legs with yoga, so it was yoga today. Me and my gf went to the park with the laptop in order to enjoy the sunset while doing yoga. It is much, much harder on uneven ground than on the flat floor of my apt. I am amazed that every time I do the dvd, I get stronger since the last time.

One thing I noted is that I hurt my chest quite bad yesturday doing the pullups. Best to take it easy for the next few days.

Dietwise: I made turkey burgers for lunch but everyone in the office pitched in $5 for pizza, so I had 2 slices instead. For supper I made tiki chicken marsala instead of the fish dish. I want something a little less bland

Day 11

Today i had volleyball for 2hrs after work. Got home at 10:30pm. Instead of doing yoga I switched to legs/back and will do yoga tomorrow. I found that I am much much stronger in the pull-ups and could do 8 or more (although I stopped at 8 because i didn't want to hurt myself). After working out my chest is super sore. I don't know why since there was no pushups.

Diet wise: I didn't eat from noon till 11:30pm. Supper was super good afterward.

Day 10

Went golfin today instead of working out

Day 9

Today is Plyometrics. I have to say that yesturday I really worked out. My whole shoulder girdle is sore. It's even hard to use my hands to help myself stand up out of my soft couch.

Today I could barely get through half of the video. Plyo is definatly the most taxing on your body
