1-20-10: It felt good this morning not to have to do a workout. Oddly, without the workout to motivate me, I was unable to get out of bed at a reasonable time (reasonable being the same time I got up to do the workout plus 45 minutes). I am actually optimisitic that by doing this workout I will eventually start showing up to work by 7:30 consistently as well. I just have to get past the point of being a broken mess in the morning. And aside from my sleeping in on days off, I feel that certain things go a little faster. I no longer take a nap in the hallway between the bedroom and bathroom. I no longer nap in the shower. I no longer take my pre-dressup nap. But seriously, when I started a couple weeks ago, my showers were used to recover, lengthy in duration and near boiling. Now, they are pretty quick. While I still could use a little recovery and I'm still tired after each workout, I've learned to dig deeper, which gets me through such difficult life events such as showers.
I did some shopping today. I bought a lot of meat. To try to keep a balance between carbs and proteins, I needed to get more foods that were high on protein, low on carbs to offset the many high carb things I was eating.
My favorite tool has become the George Foreman Grill. Wow. George Foreman vs. Shaun T. What an epic battle of food and pain! I almost use it daily now because it cooks things so danged quick.
Another meal that fits Shaun T's requirements quite well is a bowl of cream of wheat with .75 cups skim milk and 1.5 Tbsp of peanut butter, followed with 4 oz. of boneless, skinless chicken breast seasoned with garlic and chile powder. Yum. I like food.

I like the naps on the way to shower in the hallway funny.
