Laziness...

Yup laziness just took over the past few days. I made sure I got my protein and veggies in before dinner because the last thing I wanted to do after work was to think about cooking and then to proceed to cook it. Yea yea I know, but no worries I still got all my servings in :)

Day 11:

Ok not going to lie, I dont remember what I had for lunch for dinner this day, whoops but thats what you get when I dont blog. So lets skip to day 12

Day 12:

Protein shake: 1 scoop protein, 1 cup milk, 1 cup fruit...blend...delicious

For lunch I had another one of those sandwiches where the meat is just overflowing the bread, well pita. Turkey and ham piled high with cheese and little mustard. Along side I had some rice cakes, a yogurt, and a cup of sliced cucumbers. Rice cakes were quite delicious...with the hint of blueberry, a nice snack...also very high in fiber.

For dinner all i needed was a protein and a vegetable. I looked in the cabinet and laziness (again) took over. We had V8 cans so I decided to take that plunge. I was determined to just chug the whole thing but in about 2 gulps I could feel that it was cold and I gagged. I put the rest in a bowl and put it in the microwave, Justin thinks its weird but I told him it was just like tomato soup.

Day 13:

Protein shake: 1 scoop protein, 1 cup milk, 1 cup fruit...blend...delicious

Today was a big day, I had people over for dinner and by the request of my brother in law he wanted lots of carbs and sweets. Awesome, 2 things I cant have right now! So with that request I made sure I had plenty of meat and veggies. And shish kabobs did the trick. For desert I made homemade icecream sandwiches...let me tell you how hard it was NOT to eat one of those. I settled for frozen yogurt (sigh). I will be making them again on day 91 though :)

Day 14:

Went to brunch with a few of my friends and thought it might be hard to order egg whites, turkey bacon and a protein shake, but after looking over the menu I settled for a steak salad. A serving of protein and a serving of vegetables. Delicious, but once I got home I was still so hungry so I made a protein shake and had some rice cakes.

Justin made dinner tonight. He made a red pepper soup. In this soup was 2 cups white wine, an onion, 5 roasted red peppers, 2 cups celery, garlic, 2 tomatoes, tomato paste, 2 cups chicken broth, jalapeno pepper, pepper and ground cumin. He heated this on the stove and simmered for 25 minutes. Once cooked through he put it all in the blender to make it smooth. I gave it 2 thumbs up, it had a bit of a kick but still surprisingly very good! We had fish to go with this, he broiled this with some lemon juice and fresh rosemary, a little bland but thats what happens with tilapia, you need to give it a lot of loving in order to get anything from it.

So now that my 4 day stint of being lazy is over I am gonna go decide what to make for lunch tomorrow. 2 weeks in and with only 2 weeks left of this high protein diet I think I can manage through. I cant wait till week 5..carbs here I come! I am already planning what pizza I am going to make (with whole wheat crust of course).
