Today I woke up at 9:30 AM. I'm taking Adipex to help control my hunger, but I have to take it a little bit later to make sure it last till I go to sleep. I've been on this high protein/ low card diet for almost a month now. It was hard at first, but I've pretty much gotten used to it. I used to crave Taco Bell, french fries, and mac and cheese a lot, but now that I've gone a month without them... well I do have a small craving for Taco Bell every now and again, but I am committed to my weight loss.
At about 10:00 I sliced off two pieces of smoked turkey to fry up (no oil of course), and opened a can of french style green beans (if I can't have french fried I'm having something french damn it!). The $6 Jennie-O small turkey I got has been a life (and money) savor. This is my 4th meal I've eaten off of it, and I can still have at least two more before I have to buy another one. I usually swap up between steamed broccoli, spinach, and green beans for my vegetable, though I do still have some cabbage I need to eat. I also have frozen chicken breast and tilapia (the only fish I can stand to eat) that I cook. I use the chicken mostly in salads, but I have made some great lemon pepper chicken with hot sauce before.
I try my best to make sure I work out a little each day, but yesterday I was tired after spending the day with my parents, so I skipped it. I will make sure to make up for it today. I usually start off my workouts by running for 10 minutes (which equals out to about 2/3rds of a mile) and then doing a mixture of arm and leg weight exercises (always with 3 sets of 10, which I try to repeat 3 times through). I do a sort of ab crunch exercise too. I need to start doing sit ups also. I will probably get that in tonight, as I have to mow my grass this afternoon.
I'll update this later tonight to see what else I ate and how my workout went.
