Week 2 Goals

I woke up early and went right to the gym first took BCAA's and did my strength workout. I drank a liter of water and then had a protein shake during. AAfter I came home and had some grapefruit juice and a carrot and set out on a 24 minute run (2.69 miles). So I didn't technicially have breakfast.

I made chicken breast for lunch, with some chard, sweet potato, beet and cuke w. a little hummmus.

Snack was a packet of PB and an apple. Then later, capers and two baby carrots, handful of nuts (I knowwww I know too many nuts!)

Dinner was ground turkey in green pepper, onion, tomato paste,red curry, garlic. This atop a tiny squash of some sort, plus tofoodles.

snack during movie was blackberries prob 1.5 cups and greek yogurt.

I could definitely do better, but the produce here tastes like shit and i dont want to eat greens anymore. They're so bitter!

I have not had sugar, alcohol, nothing bad in a week. I lost the easy 2 lbs. I just remeasured my body fat and it is near 26-28%. I want it to be around 20 SO BAD. I know they say to wait 3 weeks for real noticible results, so I am going to keep plugging on. I am not even eating OUT, which is crazy. Stress from school and the coffee it brings might be a bad thig- but I haven't been having it in the morning, and I brought my own coconut milk yesterday. I tend to go for the iced tea more anyway.

I'm trying to think about how I could get better results. Well here's the big one- no nut butters, duh. Those single packets are great for being in a pinch, but I shouldn't be needing them.Plus- ugh hate to say it but no more yogurt.

To keep my sanity, however, I need to have options. Although, I do like having oatmeal for breakfast. I could have less fruit and more veggies, but they are difficultt to get down. I should check out the Farmer's Market this weekend- I always forget to see when and where. I know where the NB one is, so I could always go there.

SO my goals for Week 2: run every day to train for the marathon. Lift 3-4x this week. Find an alternative protein to nut butters for a quick snack. Keep fruit to twice a day. Dairy will be only cottage cheese or PLAIN Greek yogurt. Cut fat and sugars (like from Fage).

Continue NOT drinking. Sleep as much as possible. Drink 2-3 Liters water daily. Hit the 124 mark! Let's go!
