Mermaid's Log

Sunday 13 November

8.00am
Woke up and felt like staying in bed all day but I forced myself out. Couldn't face the gym so went for a beach side walk. Once I got going, I picked up the pace and went as far as the headland and back again. It took just over an hour and felt much better when I got back.

9.45am
6 whites, 1 yolk scrambled w/
spinach, tomato, 2 cube feta cheese crumbled
1 slice Performax bread
multi, flax, zinc

1.00pm
2/3 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup blueberries
1 tbsp almond butter

Spending the afternoon working Got some reports to complete but I just can not get the enthusiasm to do it. Geez, I need a kick up the @#$!

Oh hell. Could not concentrate on work and could not resist the urge to make pancakes.

Did have Glucorell-R first though, 4 of them. Yeah, great

4.00pm
3 pancakes (6.5 inch diameter)
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp whipped cream

So I've spent the last hour reworking my cutting calculator as I have put on 3 pounds (now 155 and 35% body fat); almost back to where I started.

Anyway, I'm about to cook this week's meals and I WILL have just 4oz chicken before bed. As I did not finish the reports I'll have to go in extra early tomorrow. Macros turn out to be:
