Week 3 day 5

Weight- 330lbs

Alright, last day of week 3, It was kind of a busy yet lazy day. I got up early this morning and did a load of laundry then had a protein shake. I went to the grocery store the other day and am spicing up the shakes a little. This mornings shake was Vanilla protein, apple juice and frozen peaches. My brother showed up to my apartment around 9:30 and we ran some errands. We got back to my apartment around 11:40 or so and I had to hurry up and get to my Theatre class. I didn't have time to make lunch so I went to Burger King. I know I know no fast food. I ate about as healthy as I could there though. I bought two of their Chicken breast sandwiches. One for lunch and one to eat on my break at class (It is a four hour class). Luckily though we got out of class at 2, my prayers were answered!

So I went home ate my other Chicken sandwich and then set up my Book shelf that I just picked up today. Then I vegged out for about 2 hours. A friend of mine (Maggie) stopped by and dropped off some tickets to a Motley Crue tribute band. Unfortunately it was a little too late in the day to get anyone to go with me so I decided to lay low tonight. Either way I am getting ahead of myself. After Maggie left I made another Shake this one was nearly the same as the first, but I for the second one I added fresh pineapple. That was a very good shake. Then I went to the gym.

I thought the workout was pretty good I can already notice my strength is increasing. I came home today and threw some chicken and rice in the rice cooker and then typed week 3 days 3 and 4. After I got done catching up on my posts I sat down and watched 30 Rock which I had recorded on my DVR, and ate my chicken and rice. I guess that leads me to the present. I am hungry already again which is good, working the metabolism. Alright well that is enough posting for the day. I will be back in a week.

My workout today was the best I have had so far. I definitely felt stronger. I was able to make it through all three sets of curls 10 reps a piece. I came home and realized that I forgot to put my chicken and rice in my rice cooker before I left. So when I got home I made my chicken and rice and did some laundry while it was cooking. Later in the evening I ate some Yogurt and drank some apple juice. I am done folding my laundry and it is time for bed.

Week 3 day 1

Weight- 335lbs



So it's week three... Still at it. Friday and Saturday were my days off and I ate some good food. Jambalaya, Peanut butter Chicken, Sandwich from Jason's Deli, it was great. Possibly too great, my weight was up a couple of pounds I am just hoping, I am gaining some muscle mass. I can't worry about that right now my main goal right now is to gain muscle mass so that it is easier for me to loose weight once the contest starts.

This morning I woke up and made a breakfast sandwich consisting of 3 slices of bacon 3 eggs and two pieces of toast. I had some peanuts before lunch and at lunch had a grilled chicken salad. When I came home I had a Whey protein shake with a banana, frozen strawberries and apple juice. After that I went to the gym.
