Of course, a nap right about now wouldn't be terrible either... Dang mid-afternoon slump. Time for an orange!
Okay, so as you might have guessed, I've been cutting carbs. So far I'm okay, but I'm always hungry; thankfully it doesn't bother me too much. I usually just have an apple and then try to distract myself from the hunger. I've been good about eating fruit too; I highly recommend Sprouts for fruits and veggies.
I haven't seen any improvement in energy, or anything like that, but there is one thing that's improved: my willingness to get off my butt and cook something for dinner. Carbs are really easy and nourishing and make the hunger pangs go away, but they also make me lazy about actually cooking something to eat. I hadn't turned on my stove in a long time; now I'm constantly cooking or stir-frying something up.
11:44, a little worse than last time but I rx'd this time. (Last time used 30lb KB) Back on the zone today.
Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
SP: 55-60-65-70-70
PP: 55-60-65-70-75 (1 unassisted, 2 with help - PR)
Still on Zone, eating a lot more food (14+ blocks, 2x fat). Feeling stronger and have more energy the past few days.
I was so proud of myself.
As far as food goes, I haven't been too bad! Found ways around no grains without suffering too much. There's a soy substitute that taste just like wheat noodles to me!
