Day 1 Report!

Food:  I refer to each time I eat as a "meal" though some might argue that a few of these only count as a snack.  I'm not big on sticking to a set terminology.  The point is that I don't graze & I don't go long periods without eating.  I eat separate distinct small meals several times throughout the day.

Meal 1: Omelette cups!  Egg, egg whites, uncured (turkey) bacon, spinach & onion.  I got the basic idea from http://www.facebook.com/FitMenCook and just change up the veggies I throw in each time.  I made enough so that I have leftovers for two more days!  I put some salsa on top today but I plan to change up the topping each morning!



Meal 2: Tuna & light mayo in a bowl of corn.  Not the most exciting lunch - this is what happens when I don't have leftovers from dinner to eat :-P



Meal 3: Greek yogurt with strawberries, raspberries & blueberries - I also mix in some Truvia for a little added sweetness.



Meal 4: Roasted salmon with leeks & bacon!  The problem with making this dish is that Ryan & I tend to overeat.  I really have to package the "leftovers" for the next day's lunch before we dig in.  Otherwise, we'll stuff ourselves. Salmon! Bacon! Yum! Recipe from thepaleoprize.com http://thepaleoprize.com/?p=924



Meal 5: Carrots, broccoli & celery with hummus! Yum.  I usually eat more protein when I get back from the gym but I wasn't feeling very hungry after that generous helping of salmon so...



Workout: Back & biceps!
Pull-ups
Lat pulldowns
Seated cable row
Incline dumbbell curl
Hammer dumbbell curl
Preacher curl
Weighted hyperextensions

Sermon: I listened to one of my sermon podcasts & got this take away message-
"The Spirit works to call people to Christ...Have you been called to Christ?  Is this your story? Convicted? Convinced? Enabled? Child-like? Filled? That's Christianity.  That's what we're about.  That's the proclaiming of the Kingdom.  So either we are those to whom the message needs to come or we are those from whom the message needs to proceed."

Bam!  Day 1 success!  6 more days to go!
