I slept very well last night, I was in bed by 9 and I did not get up until almost 7am this morning. Sleep should be back on track now.

Breakfast: Bowl of KIX with 1% Milk

Mid-Meal: Cottage Cheese with Peppercorn medley

Lunch: Egg Salad Wrap

Mid-Meal: Skipped

Dinner: Steak and Cheese Potatoes

After Dinner: JELLO Pudding

Other: Trident x2

P90X: Today was Kenpo, I was pretty bored with it last week and was not looking forward to it today. Instead of turning on the video I just put some music on and set the timer for an hour. Did a little warm up and then just beat the crap out of my punching bag for the rest of the time. My arms were numb and I could hardly hold them up by the end. Also my legs were feeling a pretty good burn.

I am screwed on my sleep schedule, went to bed at 11pm on Friday and fell asleep right away. 11:43pm the phone rang... I was up until about 5am because I could not go back to sleep. Slept till around noon yesterday and then I was up until around 4am this morning.

Woke up a little before noon and had my first meal of the day. I ate a little under half of a Freshcetta Pizza. Not the best choice I could have made. 820 calories, 40g of fat, 78g of carbs, 38g of protein.

Meal 2, 2:30pm: 1/2 cup cottage cheese with fresh ground peppercorn medley (Black Peppercorn, Coriander, Pink Peppercorn, White Peppercorn, Allspice, Green Peppercorn.)

Legs & Back, 4:22pm: Got halfway through the workout and my head feels like it is going to explode, I’m sweating more than normal, dizzy, blurred vision. Feel like I am going to pass out. Had to call it quits for the day. I will get it next week though!

Meal 3, 5:30pm: Mock Filet Mignon, Baked Potato with sour cream.

Mix:

1lbs lean ground beef

1/2 cup oatmeal

1 tsp onion flakes

1 egg

1/4 cup milk

Salt and Pepper to taste

Shape into patties and wrap with bacon.

Bake @ 350 for 40 to 50 minutes or internal temp is 160.

I don’t know if I enjoyed this or not. I think I would have liked it a lot more with a slice of cheese and a hamburger bun. Cause that is pretty much what it tasted like. A bland hamburger with some bacon on it. I would not mind trying this one again but I would want to try adding something to make it taste a little better. The recipe above made 5 “steaks”. Maybe some raw onion instead of flakes?

I am still 1200 calories under for the day and I am ready for bed. This sucks.

Meal 4, 6:30pm: Did not like my numbers at all for the day so I decided to make a big protein shake. Pro Complex, 1% Milk, Banana, Peanut butter, and 2 JELL-O Pudding cups. Blended it all up and now I am only 312 calories low for the day. I can live with that.

Meal	Calories	Total Fat	Carbs	Protein

2	80	1.5	5	13
3	890	42	46	75
4	898	25	97.5	80
Total	2688	108.5	226.5	206

That is it for the day people. I am going to go chill out on the sofa and try to make it till 9pm before heading off to bed.

Jamie Oliver motivated me.

This show starts on Friday, March 26 and I hope that ABC puts it on the web. I do not have cable but I really want to see this show. Watch the videos below, they are both motivational and sad.

My motivation level was low for the most part all day. I saw these videos and I could not wait to get home and work out. Today was Shoulders and Arms in P90X and I pushed myself hard. My arms are numb as I type this.

Status of this Blog

I think I am going to try and start posting here daily. If I am really going to commit to this I need to be accountable for my actions. A daily report of what I am eating, what work outs I am doing, and how I am feeling should not only help me stay on track but I will be able to look back and see how I am progressing.

Weight Update 3: Shitty Deal.

Traded 6.2lbs of muscle for 6.2lbs of fat... shitty deal if you ask me.

P90X Round 2, Day1

In the bag. Any of you knuckleheads gonna join me this time?

Update: If you are counting the days and saying to yourself "It has not been 90 days since 12/15" you would be right. I pretty much slacked off in the 3rd month of round 1 so I decided that instead of waiting another week to start up again I would just start round 2 today and get it out of the way.

Also by starting on a Wednesday my free day becomes Saturday. In Round 1 it was on Friday and that did not work out well for me.

So there you go. Stop counting days and start counting reps!

Weight Update 2

End of month 2: Body Fat % down by 3.8%. Lost 15.5lbs of fat. Gained 11.0lbs of muscle. Weight down by 4.5lbs. 113.4lbs to ideal weight @ 15% body fat.
