LMar Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 DAY 9 I didn't sleep as well last night (hyped up because of launch of new business website) but awoke with plenty of energy today. After breakfast, took a business call, grocery shopped, prepped lunch, another business call, strength workout, cleaned house, cooked chili lime chicken wings and roasted some butternut squash, prepared dinner and finally sat down at 8pm. I've had days like this before W30, not sure I can credit this energy to the program, but it's nice to feel it! Feeling a little hungrier even after I finished meal 3... Had 6 chicken wings. Still hungry....hmm....SWYPO? Meal 1: 2egg Vege scramble with coconut milk, 1 chicken apple sausage, spinach, strawberries. Coffee Meal 2: Greek chicken salad - chicken breast, olives, cucumber, tomato, spinach, red wine vinegar, olive oil, oregano, garlic Workout Strength training - back/biceps Meal 3: Roast pork, sweet potato, asparagus, ghee, chili lime chicken wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
