Breakfast: Worked from home today, so had time to make a 3 egg omelet. 3 eggs, green peppers, onion, tomato and ham. The one on Sunday was much better, but this was still filling.
Lunch: Leftover chicken egg salad from Sunday. Didn't eat much, I worked out before eating and ate lunch around 2:30pm.
Dinnner: Tilapia fillets baked in olive oil and lemon juice topped with a few spices. Squash and onions with olive oil drizzled on it with rosemary on it, baked. The squash was horrid, not cooked long enough, and I decided I am not a big rosemary fan. Wife and I both did not eat the veggies. Not sure if tilapia is a dry fish or just overcooked. If I recall, it is just a dryer fish. Dinner was a D last night. I should punch the cook in the face. Oh that's right, it was me. I can't hurt myself, that would be sad. I am a winner and have tigerblood!
Snacks: Smoothie with banannas, strawberries and coconut milk after dinner. Made beef jerky yesterday, so I snacked on that all day in the afternoon when it was done. I cooked it too long, so it was a little tough, but still edible. I must have ate alot, I farted last night in bed and the wife was disgusted, more than usual, and said it smelled like I ate all the beef jerky. HAHAHA. Sorry, couldn't pass up that story, even if about farts.
Random thoughts:
Day 9 was Monday.
Almond meal/almond flour. Finding it at Whole Foods has been hard. The wife went on Sunday and they said it would be on the truck on Monday. So I went on Monday at lunch and it still wasn't in. They said hopefully Wednesday's truck. I might go to Jungle Jim's today at lunch since I work by it. Need almond flour to make some paleo cookies and pancakes.
Started Insanity workouts yesterday. I have been looking for something to do to put exercise in with the Paleo lifestyle. Running is good, but it is not quite warm enough yet. So I was surfing the web last week and ran across Insanity. This is the same company that does P90x. My wife uses their Power90 exercises, which is a step down from P90x. Insanity interested me because it is all cardio and you use your body as weight resistance, instead of bands and pullup bars like the P90x. To burn the flab off, I decided to try it. Day 1 of 60 was Monday and it was a fitness test. Only 25 minutes long and you wrote down results of stuff they had you do, like power kicks, squat jumps or jumping jack pushups. (Do a pushup and move legs like a jumping jack at same time) They don't recommend this for people out of shape. I am flabby, but still active, so I don't think I am horribly out of shape. Plus I wanted to be pushed, and drip sweat. Well this did it. My shirt was soaked after 25 minutes and I even went upstairs and threw up a little bit in the bathroom. It probably took me an over to recover, but a few hours later, I felt great. Looking forward to day 2 tonight. It is 45 minute workout or so. Plan to do it when I get home before dinner.
And I got the wife to do it with me. She did the fit test as well. It is tough, but I think it will be good for both of us. We are going to try and do it at the same time tonight, there should be enough room in the basement.
Oh yeah, my son had a pizza party last night for his basketball season. He was so looking forward to it. He ate 4 pieces of pizza, which is twice as much as normal for him. I think he was looing forward to it alot. He was happy he didn't have to eat the squash, not that any of us ended up eating it. The kids are on a modified Paleo diet, they still get milk and ice cream and stuff. Most of the meals they do eat.
