fifteen

three hardboiled eggs, one spoonful of peanut butter, vitamins (d3, c, omega 3, b100).

my throat is killing me. finishing this lemon water jug today is imperative. again, one day before cheat day I semi fall apart. I had a cookie and three bites of cake at work today for saint paddy's festivities. I feel bad, but it definitely could have been worse. that WAS self control, it just wasn't perfect. I will likely eat my mac and cheese from last week tonight. but I'll have chicken and cauliflower mash before that. I'm still super proud of myself. the worst things I ate this week were a gluten free/dairy free/egg free small chocolate chip cookie, a Safeway box cookie, and literally three bites of cake. and... two chocolate loonies. somewhere around 500 calories, I would say? ugh need to finish this water jug.

fourteen

two hard boiled eggs, Safeway chicken leg, spoonful of natural peanut butter, spinach salad with chicken, mustard, cucumber, yellow pepper, pumpkin seeds and walnuts.

going to start having 3 hard boiled eggs in the morning (24g protein) and also a scoop of peanut butter. perhaps venturing into the protein shake route (whey, water, ice, cocoa powder, cream) after work outs. nervous about weigh in on tuesday morning. i’m also going to take measurements and pictures. didn’t go for a run today because I feel like shit, I even used some oregano oil last night. goddamn my lower back is killing me.

vitamins! I took omega 3 (100% krill oil), b100, 3000mg of vitamin D3, vitamin C, and 2 magnesium pills. cool.

garlic butter prawns with avocado, spinach, cucumber and lime juice! also macadamia nuts and honey roasted peanuts (probably not slow carb friendly, idgaf) and two hard boiled eggs. went for my 5.4km walk, too! and 110 jump ropes! good day.

also had that broccoli/chicken/peanut butter thing and a gluten free/egg free/dairy free cookie. and cauliflower mooshed up with parmesan and bacons.

Healthy Gluten Free Chocolate Cookies! St. Patricks day is coming up and so are all the parties that follow! To be honest, I never liked St. Patricks day. People are always trying to pinch you, leprechauns are scary, and I don’t like the color green unless it’s grass and yummy vegetables....

twelve

two hard boiled eggs, more chilli (x2) and a chicken/yellow pepper spinach salad with mustard. medium plain tea at tim horton’s. full water jug! a prawn/garlic butter avocado salad with spinach and lime juice!

no walk this morning due to strained… leg. right leg. tendon maybe? i will do it tomorrow when i wake up.

eleven

two hard boiled eggs, one chicken breast with one green-yellow pepper, half an avocado, a squirt of lemon juice (real lemon) and some salt. then for dinner i had beef/kidney bean chilli my boss made! i assume it was slow carb friendly... it had stewed tomatoes, celery, onion, bay leaves, idk some other things? chilli should be on the slow carb list. so that's cool.

did my 5.4km walk again this morning. really trying to make it part of my routine. so far the plan is to go for a walk before work tomorrow, which means getting up at 6:20. work is at 8. let's see if i stick to that! still quite proud of myself.

i weighed myself this morning and i'm at 223, which means cheat day made me gain 4lbs. that's not super cool, but with all the walks i plan on doing it should be back below 219 soon.

ten

half avocado, fried egg, red onion spinach salad, couple bites of yesterday’s mac and cheese (goddamnit)… that chicken/broccoli/natural peanut butter/soya sauce thing! 

also before the concert we went to mcdonalds for coffee and some of the boys ordered food and i did not. i only had a small black coffee. and i watched them eat pie. i had a cigarette though.

did 5.4km walk in 57:06, three minutes faster than the last time I did it!

eight

so technically tomorrow is cheat day. but today i had half a bag of cheetos and about 6 oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. fuck. this morning i had two fried eggs with leftover peppercorn pork at work... but i also didn't finish my water jug. maybe half way. so... clearly. i've started cheat day early. i feel kind of bad, but am still proud of myself for being so good this week. i'm going to go out for a 5.4km walk before my fat stack of french toast tomorrow, so that will help a little bit?

tomorrow is cheat day, but then we're back in business. legit.

five

two hard boiled eggs, spinach salad with safeway chicken, lentils, carrots, one hard boiled egg, and some mustard... walnuts... a full water jug... two carrots baked in the oven with melted butter and salt... and some garlic sausage?

probably going to have another hard boiled egg.

my boss made apple cinnamon muffins yesterday and i took two home to freeze for tuesday. i made pasta for the kids for lunch and couldn't have any. it really made me feel things. when i got home i wanted to quit this, cheat, no one would know, but i didn't. and that's really big. didn't go on a walk today because my legs are killing me.

i'm too scared to weigh myself and probably won't do it until the end of march.

breaking bad habits.
