Surprisingly Sore!

Did my normal monday workout yesterday. Started the day with about a 4.5 mile walk and in the afternoon did some bench pressing and chin ups. Not sure why buy my chest is really sore. Maybe because I did about 8 sets, LOL!

Good NEPA Last 3 Days

For the past 3 days i was able to start the day with a nice 4.5 mile walk. Also lifted weights a couple times but unfortunately I can't recall the exact details.

Today I experimented with a new ingredient in my morning protein shake. Frozen spinach leaves! I'm trying to boost my daily greens and to be honest this is an easy way to do it. I didn't taste it at all.

Tuesday Update!

Stayed pretty active over the weekend. Lot's of NEPA sun and mon morning. Got in about 5 miles of walking each morning while I was listening to my books. In addition, did a simple weightlifting workout yesterday (about 8 sets of bench press alternating with chins). At night I threw in about 20 minutes on the airdyne just for good measure. I'm hoping to have a good diet week.

Today's weight 199.0 lbs

1200pm chicken breast/low carb wrap/guacamole
420pm 2 sausage patties, 1 light babybell cheese snack
700pm small mixed green salad, broccoli and 3 turbo chicken drumsticks

Finally Time To Get Serious!

Just got back from a great weekend of eating in California. Figured today was a good day to finally begin dieting and training more seriously.

Today's weight: 202.4lbs (YIKES!!)

I think I am going to adhere mostly to TNT guidelines for the diet portion of the program. Off to a good start this morning with a 2 scoop protein shake/1tbs coconut oil /1tbs fish oil /flax seeds /benefiber /super food/ instant coffee. This will probably be my breakfast most days. For lunch I brought (yes brought!) a low carb wrap/chicken breast/guacamole(wholly guacamole brand in a convenient single serving pouch)/ provolone cheese / diet root beer.
