I did better on the protein today, although still not up where I want it. Our grocery run was delayed this week, and my pickings are slim. Out of cottage cheese completely, and I can only eat so much turkey. The whey shakes are getting to me, and I also realized that my "super" whey shake contains creatine, which I was not taking, so that explains my water retention, basically making my weight log useless.
I feel worlds better today, especially after taking off my shirt in the gym to check my progress. It has only been a few days, and I am visually much more defined and harder. Vascularity sucks, but I THINK this has to do with my water retention. I really wish I wouldn't have messed with the creatine to better track my weight. I measured my waist size today just for the hell of it, and I am already down about 1/3 of an inch. Pants are loose. The skinny gods are happy.
