The Body I Deserve (July 05 2008)
I woke up around 6am this morning without an alarm clock, it has been awhile since I woke up feeling rested. Last week, I’ve been having trouble sleeping, even when I took Melatonin. It’s not that the supplement is not working, it’s just I’ve been staying late and don’t want to head to bed, then I woke up at 3:00am and prepare for work at 4:00am. 4th of July, great meal, 4 burgers, two hot dogs, about 6 cookies or so.
Today, 60 minutes cardio on the treadmill training in HITT. Incline 2, 3, 4, and 5, with speed of 5, 6, 7, and 8. I miss having my heart-rate monitor, I need to have the strap replaced. It has been awhile, since I start doing cardio that long. Now a day, I only do cardio for maybe 30 minutes max.
Today, I went grocery shopping and totaled out less then one supplement product. I might have to trade off supplements for real food. Let see, 31 dollars, I got bananas, 1 large tray of eggs, four links South Beach 98% fat free lean turkey sausage, 3 palm size yams, Thomas Whole grain muffins, one large taco seasoning, 1.52lbs of lean turkey, 1 bottle of mild Taco sauce, Ketchup, 16 tortilla wrap (whole grain).
Starting today, I am going to increase my calories intake with the expectation to increase strength and energy in the gym. Not going to complicate things, I’ve decided to follow The Body For Life eating methods. I was going to get a scale to measure my food, but I still not able to find a cheap one yet. The cheapest one I found was in Walmart for 30 dollars, and that still too much, I rather get food.
Live Strong!
