Just a normal rest day today, nothing too exciting. Totally forgot to weigh myself this morning, so i'll do that tomorrow morning. Still seeing a physical difference but not expecting much on the scales to change.
It was 5 degress in Cabo this morning so I thought “bugger going for a walk down the street” and went to the gym instead. Much warmer. As Kris says, “control your environment!”
My old friend chicken and rice came out of the freezer this morning so I could introduce it to my new fried, soy sauce. They quickly became best of friends. Long story short, I'm eating chicken again. Which is really good because I have a few packs in the freezer still which I'll make my way through this week and do another cook up on the weekend. Also I didn't want to over do it with the fish and grow to hate that as much as I hate(d) chicken.
I have developed a terrible cough around 4 or 5 days ago that hasn't gone away so I went to the doctors this afternoon and he thinks its a throat infection. So I have some anti-biotics which will hopefully clear that up. I'm glad it wasn't anything that would stop me from training, I was a little worried for a bit. Should help me to sleep better too.
In other news, I made it through uppers abs this evening without cramping which was good. Gotta build a strong core to protect my poor ol' back!
Anyway, that's about it from me today. My back and biceps are in big trouble around this time tomorrow, until then...

mmm... how good is Soy Sauce!
ReplyDeleteIt's sort of a love-hate relationship with chicken. It's such a great protein source but because of that, I eat so much of it. In saying that, if i cooked it fresh for each meal, it would probably bit more enjoyable than cooking it, freezing it then microwaving it. Most of the tenderness has gone by that time...
ReplyDelete...and I dont have a clue how many calories I'm taking in. The book doesn't worry about counting calories, it concentrates on using the palm of your hand to gauge your serving size. ie 150g chicken breast is around the size of my palm and because of that, 150g of rice is the carbs I need per meal. counting calories can get confusing and this is a simple way to get the serving sizes correct as well as your macro-nutrients
