I'm feeling good this morning! I tried a little HIIT this morning while I was doing my normal 30mins on the eliptical. I only did 3 cycles of intense for 1 min each. Basically I would wait for my heart rate to drop back down to 150bpm before starting another sprint. For the sprints I would increase the level of difficulty and I was running on it at about 8mph. I burned an extra 40 calories by doing it.

Also when I got on the scale this morning I dropped another pound and better yet 0.5% BF. 262.5lbs, 35% BF, 46% water.

Meal plan for today:

Breakfast(20mins post cardio): 10oz Grapefruitjuice, 1can tuna, 1tbspoon soy mayo, 1 medium spinach tortilla

Arrival at work: 10oz green tea

Mid-morning: protein snake (1qt water 1 scoop protein)

Lunch: ham sandwich (3 slices) on whole wheat cranberry bread, sandwich-size bag of grapes, 10oz green tea

Afternoon: banana, granola bar

Dinner: haven't decided yet, maybe 3-4 turkey dogs without the bun and some veggies with Italian dressing

How much water do you guys normally mix with 1 scoop (~24g protein) of the protein powder?

I don't like that diet at all today... seems way low on the calories.

ham meat... most likely loaded with sodium... whole wheat (most of the time no good) whole GRAIN... much better.

Banana and granola bar meal?! wtf!? no good. that's like an all sugar meal... bananas are great potassium, fiber and carb but granola bar... probably all sugar...get some real food, or eat a high protein content bar (30grams + .. 300 cals or so)

How much water do you guys normally mix with 1 scoop (~24g protein) of the protein powder?

I do 2 scoops and milk if it's a meal replacement cuz I'm out of time or something... approx 16oz of liquid or so... doesn't matter if it's water, whatever you like... it doesn't have any calories.

Hmmm, ok. I'll toss the granola bar out of the picture. It's a "whole grain" granola bar (16g whole grain). It has 180cal, 6g fat, 29g carb (11g sugar), and 4g protein. Should I avoid any product with sugar or only a certain amount of sugar?

How about I mix 1qt of soy milk with 2 scoops of protein and have half mid morning and the other half as my afternoon meal?

Yeah, the ham probably has a lot of sodium, but I don't want to waste what's left over in my fridge. I also have sliced turkey, but it's probably just as high in sodium.

I'll have to look out for whole "grain" bread as well.

Thanks again Sarge!

I hear ya bro, use what you got left in the fridge! But next time you go buy food make yourself a list from the healthy foods list posted above. Stay away from packaged lunch meats, very high in sodium. Most deli's sell a low sodium brand of turkey and its fresh. I do tuna on whole grain wheat, or maybe a turkey patty, sliced chicken..ect. I would 86 the turkey dogs too!

Is this all prepackaged deli meat? There will be processing to preserve it. You should get some fresh/frozen chicken breasts & bake it. Not that hard... Fresh/unthawed breasts on parchment paper, sprayed with FAT free Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray, Preheat & bake at 350-375 for 35-40 minutes, check centers to make sure they are not pink... season with Mrs. Dash to taste. I get tenderloins & cook for entire week. You can heat up veggies to for week if you want.
