61 steps on the road to success.

Og, eat some more fat!! I find when I have that feeling at the end of the day, if I have a spoonful of ANPB or a hunk of cheese, it goes away and I sleep better and don't wake feeling pukey. Plus the days I didn't do that, my morning weight was up ... and the days I did do it, my morning weight was down!!

[Ogedei]

I have yet to have trouble sleeping or waking up feeling pukey. I think my fat is ok, I have been eating a lot of Spinach taco salads. (Spinach, ground beef, full fat sour cream, salsa and regular cheese). I am also exprimenting with a sorta coconut protein pudding, basically coconut and whey powder with a little water mixed into a pudding like consistency.

Breakfast this morning was a couple of eggs and 3 slices of turkey bacon, some cream cheese and salsa. The cream cheese was eaten extra while I was making the eggs!) and 2 fish oil caps.

I am doing pretty well nutrionally, I am almost a week in since we started and I haven't had any "bad" carbs. Rock and roll.

Workout wise, I am on track. My goals are not extreme in this category, I know if I made them that way I probably wouldn't do them. I can tell I am still not 100% back on track in terms of working out. I need to do NROL today and I have it planned for after work. I hate working out after work, I just wanna go home. We will see if it happens tonight or tomorrow morning. Which means I would have to fit in "A" this week on Saturday.

Meh.

Your goals look great and I know you have the strength to follow through. Keep sharing your thoughts...really good stuff!

Thanks man. Good to be back on track somewhat. The challenge is what I needed. And no it's not my baby, James brought it up. I just created the tracker spreadsheet for it to help out.

Og.

I am now a lot more psyched up about working out tonight. Gotta stop being a lil bitch and just go and do it.

[Ogedei]

So after spending all that time getting psyched up for deadlifting....I realize my locker keys are not with me. I apparently did not put them back on my key ring after NROL Workout A.

Ass.

Tomorrow it is.

Og.

[James Newman]

Dude, that sucks. When I saw your post about being psyched about the workout tonight. I was psyched for you and were interested in seeing how it went. Blah. Where is the rowdy awesome love of locker keys?!?!?!?

I'll just get the first bus in in the morning and lift in the AM tomorrow. No big deal. Ok kinda sucky. But do what we can.

[James Newman]

I have set a timer in my PDA to remind me to check that out in the morning. I want to see some good numbers because I now have a few message vested interest in it.

Good! I love eating full-fat stuff! It feels so ... ummm ... decadent!! I had some full-fat sour cream today (I was baking banana bread for the girls and there is sour cream in it ... to avoid tasting the bread batter, I was "snacking" on the sour cream ... ahhhhh ... heaven!!). It's been a week since my last carb meal too ... on my birthday last Thursday I had enchilladas and rice and beans out at my favorite Mexican restaurant. And I had been compliant low-carb for a few days before that one ... yay me!!

Nice job on the workout.

And a fun time was had by all. woot.

I found some coconut cream at the store. Even fattier than coconut milk. It's thick like cream cheese. Tasty, too.

[lance02]

Good work on the intervals.
