Delicious combination. First time trying goat cheese, its very good, almost like cream cheese.
Snack 1:
1 mozzarella stick
1/2 cup protein granola
1 cup 2% milk
----Total: 427 Kcal, 18g fat, 44g carbs, 24g protein
Iāve been trying not to look in the mirror at my physique, but it proves very difficult at times.
Finished sewing on all the rows to the blanket, now just for the border, and then sewing in the loose ends, then I will be done at last
Snack 2
3 sweet peppers
2 oz goat cheese
1/3 cup sunflower seeds
6 cherries

Dinner: Good eating night.
2 burgers with cheese, pickles, mustard and ketchup
2 hotdogs, no toppings
5 potato chips

----Total: YIKES! the two burger patties ALONE made up the rest of my calories (I had ate a bit much earlier, only about 780 left)

Good dinner
Day Total: 3740 Kcal, 215g fat, 300g carbs, 166g protein
More than I thought it would beā¦
This shows that calories arenāt all that matter. 2 patties may have more calories, but also far more actual nutrition than the buns or chips. Definitely prioritize those patties.
July 21 W4D1 SE day

Assignments:
Finish all of the border on the blanket, and sew in the loose ends
I gotta get that blanket done, its so close.
I will start eating healthy today. No root beer, No food that doesnāt serve a purpose
Time to do my workout
Workout complete
When doing the inverted rows, my wrist does more of a popping sort of sensation, it actually doesnt hurt as much like i said. I think that i just need to warm it up before I get started, since when i tested it out after a workout last week it wouldnāt do that, and also when I got stronger at tricep pushdowns, my elbow would pop/hurt the first set if i didnt warm up with lighter weight.
Breakfast: A goodān
1 bagel
2 eggs
1 burger patty
1 slice cheese
1 sweet pepper
1/2 cup protain granola (I only really ate it for the fiber not the protein)
1 cup 2% milk
----Total: 1171 Kcal, 59g fat, 102g carbs, 59g protein
Could have done without that granola calorie wise, but oh well.
Its great getting my workout done in the morning before breakfast. When I was brushing my hair I was thinking āokay I still gotta workout today Il probably do that around-ā. And then I remembered, āWait, no I donāt, I already worked out today.ā
My mind is still not used to working out in the morning. Not during the workout, after. Its already done, Its weird I donāt have to think about working out for the rest of the day, its done.
I have to leave the internet a little more urgently it seems. Not immediately, but I must take more action as it were.
Thereās all this AI misinformation, these viral videos going on about how wildlife is fleeing Yellowstone, and that its erupting etc etc, its all fake. I project I may leave the internet before December of this year, if the progress of AI deems it. AI is getting worse; beware it.
This is definitely why Iām a big fan of training first thing in the morning. Itās nice to just have it over and done with.
Lunch: A charcutery board like meal
2 sweet peppers
Some mushrooms
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
2 oz cheese
18 grapes
3 slices pepperoni
1 container beef jerky chew
----Total: 393 Kcal, 23g fat, 29g carbs, 22g protein
All the food was layed out on a wood cutting board on top of napkins. Its quite good.
I had wanted to use ham but we had none, so beef jerky chew instead.
I made a better name for this log. Iām calling it āZM Strong like Bull training log (Tactical barbell training log)ā
Snack:
2 slices whole grain oatnut bread
1 can of tuna
----Total: 350 Kcal, 6g fat, 42g carbs, 33g protein
Never knew different types of tuna look different. Albacore is more of a white color, while Skipjack is more of a brown/tan color. The more you know
Got my money for helping my brother. 50 bucks, not bad.
The 2 tank tops we got fit good, so thats nice
Found out I can do a frog stand pose for a second or two. Thats interesting.
Dinner:
5 oz kielbasa
5 oz chicken rice a Roni
1/2 cup kidney beans
----Total: 1012 Kcal, 37g fat, 130g carbs, 38g protein
Very good meal.
I think Iāve finally got my new shoes broken into. Will use them for running tomorrow. 40 minutes of running, It will be good to run again. Will be 4 laps around my route, which in total is 4 miles. Should be fun.
Bikes out. Back wheel completely flat. I looked closely at the wheel and there were these cracks all over from it being squeezed too much, or something like that. Checked the front wheel too, it wasnāt as bad butā¦ were buying 2 wheels it seems. Oh well.
Got the full white border on my blanket done, Iām working on the green part. After that its sewing in the ends. Then its finally done. My first really big crochet project il have finished.
July 22 W4D2 E day
40 minute run today
Todayās assignments
Finish border on blanket
Iāve been looking to add stomach vacuums as part of a morning routine, but Im not sure what the correct way to do them is. Do I hold my breath? Or am I supposed to keep breathing?
Breakfast:
2 eggs
1/4 cup cheese
2 slices whole grain Oatnut bread
1 sweet pepper
5/4 cup Greek yogurt
2 strawberries
1/4 sup sunflower seeds (Dont use salted ones in the greek yogurt. I had to keep thinking āThis is good. It is salty Greek yogurt. it tastes like goat cheese, it tastes like goat cheeseā so I wouldnāt throw up near the end)
----Total: 989 Kcal, 55g fat, 69g carbs, 59g protein
Probably will head for my run in about a half hour.
Ran for 45 minutes, with only a few pauses. That was great. At the start of this thereās no way I would be able to do that. But now, I did it. 4 miles in 45 minutes, not super fast but its ok I guess, Iām not going for speed, after all.
Iām not going for speed, after all.
Yup! In the Mass Protocol book, the author talks about how they may sell a t-shirt one day that reads āIām not moving slow: Iām base buildingā
Glad it went well for you! Shoes felt good?
