Day1 Week 5

As usual, Monday started off a little slow. Got up just a bit late but after my quick breakfast shake and vitamins/supplements, I was raring to go! Still took till 7am to get out of the house but I finally made the gym @ 7:15am. It surprises me how tired I can be when I get up, but be so ready to go when I walk in the gym. Really been pretty excited to get there everyday. 4 straight weeks I have not missed a single weekday workout! Very proud of myself. I believe it is because I am seeing some phenomenal results, and I have good friends that I enjoy shooting the crap with at the gym, while still getting in a good workout! I worked out from 7:15 to 9:00am. After I had a doctors appointment, have been worried I might have low oxygen from an infection or something, that was at 10am. Had x-rays and oxygen checked and everything is perfect! I was weighed while I was there and I came in at a BEAUTIFUL 244.2 pounds! I have really started packing on the muscle! YEAH! OK, so onto the routine for Monday that is helping me get there.

Diet:
Pre and post workout consisted of my regular protein shakes. This constitutes my breakfast as well. Lunch I had 6 egg whites, beaten with 3 Banquet Lite Ready to Eat Sausages and a slice of cheese with a glass of milk. Dinner was Homemade Pot Roast with carrots, onions, and potatoes. I ate approximately 1.5 pounds of meat, and about 10 ounces of veggies. Not tracking my calories, only concerned I keep my fat and sodium intake low. My body is pretty in tune with what it needs as for nutrition. My biggest hurdle has been adding at least 300 grams of protein a day to my diet. Need to write Tuesday next, but I still need to remember what I ate that day.

My will is greater than my quit!
