Base Camp: Day 8

Day 8 of 12


Base Camp Training Time: 9:00 P.M.

Notes: I started work today. Normally I would be working out during my lunch break but my house is a mess from moving things in back from school still (I had a lot). Over the next few days I'll be getting into my groove, hopefully.

Sleep:
Time Retired: 11 P.M.
Time Awaken: 6:40 A.M.
Total Sleep: 7 hours 40 minutes

Notes: I literally had to force myself to go to sleep. I wasn't tired at all, I was in bed very early, gazing at the clock for periods of time. The last time I remember reading was around 10:50 P.M. I woke up not quite as refreshed as normal, but I could tell I got a good amount of sleep.

Nutrition

Water intake (in addition to water specified below): 1.5 gallon
* Asterisk indicates mood/feeling after eating specified food

Meal 1: 7:00 A.M.

  • Egg-white omelete w/ spinach and tomatoes (cooked in MCT oil)
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats w/ strawberries.
* Had to eat this kind of quick. Too quick actually. I ate this in less than 3 minutes. I needed to get out the door and off to work. Not a good idea, but I didn't eat anything until 3 hours later.

Meal 2: 10:30
  • 16 oz. water
  • 1 packet Chocolate Myoplex
Combined in Shaker.

Meal 3: 2:45 P.M.
  • 16 oz. water
  • 1 packet Chocolate Myoplex
Combined in Shaker.

* Felt good after this meal. Good energy following this.

Meal 4: 5:00 P.M.
  • 16 oz. water
  • 1 packet Vanilla Myoplex
Combined in Shaker.

Meal 5: 9:40 P.M.
  • 16 oz. water
  • 4 ice cubes
  • 1 packet Vanilla Myoplex.
Combined in blender.

* Refreshing post-workout shake!

Notes:
Now I know this looks bad. 4 myoplex. This is because of work. I'm still very unorganized with a lot going on and doing my best to not sacrifice my eating habits. While 4 meal replacements don't sound to great in one day, I at least didn't eat foods I wasn't supposed to. This may happen the next few days, but I'm hoping to get things into gear. During the middle of the week I'll have some free-time after work to try and get myself organized. I'm rushing just writing in this journal, but it's important to me that I get it done!
