Week 3 - Day 2 - As promised, it does get easier.
I’ve now successfully completed the first two weeks of the CKD and I can attest to the promises of it getting easier. Week two wasn’t nearly as bad as week one. I was able to train with more intensity and I didn’t find myself as exhausted. I did however switch it up a little, in the first week my day of cradio (no weights), was on Wednesday and then on Thursday I did my leg workout, which was a disaster because with a leg workout I tire out the most, and not having any energy to begin with did not help at all. So in week two, I actually did my leg workout on Wednesday and just some light cardio on Thursday. This seemed to work a little better, but then again, in general, I had more energy this week, so I might go back to legs on Thursday instead of Wednesday in week 3. I’ll play it by ear, see how I feel on Wednesday and take it from there.
The depletion workout last Friday was also a lot better, I didn’t feel like a complete zombie after walking out of the gym that evening. As for the carb up, I’m still working on it! I did pretty good but as I mentioned last week, I’m struggling with portion sizes because again, all day on Saturday I felt bloated and stuffed like a pig ready to explode! I’m still trying to figure out a way to make it just a little bit easier on myself. I have the next 3-4 days before my next carb up so I’m gonna have to sit down and plan it out a little.
Other then that, I really have no complains! I already lost 2.5 pounds which is perfect since I don’t wanna be losing anymore then 1-2 pounds a week. Also, now that I have a pretty good hang of this diet I am able to eat a variety of different meals so I’m not as bored with eating eggs with mayonnaise all the time. Tomorrow I’m having some BBQ ribs (seasoned, no sauce, sauce = carbs & carbs = BAD)! Looking forward to that! I even figured out a couple of desserts! Yes I confess, I have a bit of a sweet tooth that needs to be satisfied! But these desserts stay within the diet’s perameters, with less then 3g of carbs & plenty of fat & even protein! I’m a monster, I know
