Fell off the paleo wagon at the baseball game and was surprised at how harshly my body reacted. Stomach felt terrible the rest of the night and had major indigestion. Makes it much easier to get back on track when your body punishes you!

Saturday, July 9, 2011
Breakfast:
4 Omega-3 Eggs
2 cups of Spinach
Post Rugby Game #1:
12oz Coconut Water
Lunch:
1 can of Tuna
1 cup of Blueberries
Post Rugby Game #2:
Protein Shake (45g Protein, 40g Carbs)
Dinner: Glorious Cheat Meal w/ Friends
Panko Crusted Pork Tenderloin
Rissoto w/ Peas and Mint
Spinach Salad
Copious amounts of Red Wine
Overall, I found it pretty easy to stick to my diet this week, mainly because I made a concentrated effort to prepare food to bring to work and to the rugby tournament. Eating healthy at home has always been easy, it's when it becomes inconvenient that lapses are made. Dinner party Saturday night was a blast with a bunch of guys from my rugby team coming over with significant others, and everyone overindulged. Sunday morning, I had an intense headache, and I think it was due more to the carbs than the wine (although the wine probably didn't help). Got right back on the train Sunday morning and looking forward to another successful week.

Thursday, July 7, 2011
Breakfast:
4 Omega-3 Eggs
1 cup of Blueberries
Lunch:
1/2 Roasted Chicken
Mixed Greens Salad with 1Tbsp Olive Oil
PWO: Protein Shake (45g Protein, 20 Carbs)
Dinner:

Pretty damn clean eating today. I have to say this is making me feel great. Down 7 pounds in 3 weeks, which is too fast but quite a bit is probably water weight from the lack of carbs. Pants are now falling off and strength is holding up reasonably well.

Wednesday, July 6, 2011
Breakfast:
8oz Chicken Breast
1 cup of spinach w/ 1 tsp of olive oil
Lunch:
12oz Cod
Half an Avocado
Cauliflower and Leek Puree
PWO Shake (45g Protein, 20 carbs)
Dinner: Sushi at Blowfish Sushi
Everything was right on track today until dinner. Went out to Blowfish Sushi for work, and they had the Chef choose our dishes. Sushi is probably one of the better options in terms of eating out, but still too much rice was involved. Will consider it my cheat meal for the week.

I went strict paleo-zone about 2.5 weeks ago in an effort to lean out some over the next 2 months, and excluding the July 4th weekend, it's been very easy. I'm going to start logging my diet for the next two months in order to force some accountability on me. Not that anyone reads the food logs!
Tuesday, July 5, 2011
Breakfast: 5 Omega 3 Eggs, 1 cup raspberries
Lunch: Paleo Brand Grass-fed Beef with Pistachio Stuffing and Broccoli
PWO: Protein Shake (45g Protein, 22 Carbs)
Dinner: 12oz Chicken Breast, 2 cups Sauteed Spinach w/ one Tbsp Olive Oil, 1 Tbsp Cod Liver Oil
Macros for the Day: 2030 Calories, 225g Protein, 92g Fat, 74g Carbs
Calories were too low for the day. At those levels, I will lose weight too quickly and lose a bunch of upper body strength. Probably need to throw in another egg in the morning and maybe some avocado. More healthy fats throughout the day probably won't hurt either.
