Hey there NG!!![]()

THANKS Jodi! I HATE taking antibiotics. (and never finish the damn things even though I know I "should" )
I will pick the Defense Plus up at lunch time.
I only ate twice yesterday and I have no appetite at all today. I hate eating when I don't want to way more than I hate not eating stuff I want to eat. Anyway - I'm determined to get at least 5 meals in today.

well - last week was a rough one. wasn't feeling good, problems at home and craziness at work. i ended up taking the week off from the gym but i'm back at it this week. i WAS going to try the 50s Monday on chest day but figured the week after a week off maybe wasn't the best time since my diet was pretty lame and i wasn't feeling my best.
next power week - i'm going for it - even if i only get a few reps i want to try.

I'm fiddling with a pw spike. I'll see what I learn from it. Yesterday's diet:
MEAL 1
1 whole egg
5 egg whites
1/2 grapefruit
1/3 c oats
2 fish oil caps
MEAL 2
4 oz chicken breast
5 oz sweet spud
green beans
sesathin
MEAL 3
2 scoops whey
2 fish oil caps
MEAL 4
can tuna
Tbs light mayo
4 olives
sesathin
MEAL 5 **postworkout meal**
2 scoops whey
3 Tbs dextrose
1/4 c oats
MEAL 6
1 cup 1 1/2% fat cottage cheese
Tbs pb
sesathin
TOTALS: 1674 calories
212 g protein (52%)
126 g carbs (29%)
35 g fat (19%)

the above meal plan is going to be the one i go with on training days for awhile.
i was thinking on the other 3 days that i don't lift i'd keep it basically the same except for meal 5 i wouldn't be having the carbs and i'd add in a couple of fish oil caps. on those days my totals would be 1511 calories 210 g protein, 84 g carb 35 g fat
is that reasonable for a little while or too low on calories/carbs for the 3 non lifting days?

I think it's reasonable. I'm not fond of the spike but we won't get into that![]()

i knowi have a feeling i might not too fond of the spike either. but it occured to me the other day that i've never tried it myself to see. i think i'll give it 3 or 4 weeks and then cut it out and see what (if anything) changes.
i don't THINK i can get fat from it since my calories are pretty tight. when i eliminate it i'll keep my calories the same and just ditch the dextrose and use all oats instead.
i'm hoping i'll at least be able to tell a difference - good or bad. (fingers crossed)

It's the only way to find out.I tried it this past winter for a few weeks. I didn't like it and went right back to oats. But we are all different and for some it works great while other it does not
