Day 7 has come and gone and it was perhaps the best one so far. I continue to feel full of energy all day which is a nice relief from that mid-afternoon sleepiness that I frequently experience. Patrick was feeling better than he was feeling the day before so that was good. I believe on Monday he said he could eat his fist and yesteday he could eat a finger or two. Sounds like progress to me!
We continue to enjoy trying new menu items because we had been getting so bored with eating the same thing all the time. It reminded me of when I was a kid and my mom always put the same foods into the rotation. Boring! Below is a recap of our exercise and food intake:
Exercise
Rode bikes to and from the gym (approx. 16 total miles)
Skill work (I worked on unassisted pull-ups and Patrick worked on double-unders)
AMRAP in 15 minutes - 7 deadlifts (me: 155# Patrick: 305#), 7 box jumps, 3 wall walk-ups
I completed almost 5 rounds and Patrick completed 3 rounds.
Food
Breakfast - eggs with green peppers, onion, spinach, and one slice of bacon
lunch - chicken, green peppers, onions, and green beans
snack - berries
dinner - chicken with salsa and guacamole
Each day gets a bit easier, but I do miss ice-cream and wine. I am, however, quite pleased with the results so far in how I feel and even how I look.
