Right now I am wolfing down 4 eggs a day which is more that I would probably have eaten in a month pre-PCP!! I used to have to throw eggs out because they were still in my fridge loooong after the use by date. These days it's a completely different story. We have to buy the wholesale sized pack and even then we're back for more before the week is out. I feel like I am about to sprout wings and I swear my head is taking on a conical shape. I'm morphing. Is everyone just eating their egg whites boiled? I'm not into the whole raw strong man shake. An ideas how to liven up a bland egg white?
I'm pleased to say I am in a far better frame of mind. It really is a pendulum and the lowest point is usually after weekly photo posts. My knees and ankles have been complaining a bit the last few days so this weekend I might sub in 30mins on the elliptical or go for a power walk to give my joints a rest. Today during my workout I was feeling pretty strong. I still suffered a LOT but it felt good. The planks are really psychological but I find I have much more control and can get through them if I concentrate on my breathing it also helps to make the plank go much faster. Once again it's all about distracting my brain! Oh and the ski jumps...agonyyyy! Such a tiny little muscle causing so much pain. I might need some help cutting up my lunch tomorrow.
Speaking of lunch, today a met a friend and it was a complete PCP travesty - the best choice was ceasar salad so I pretty much violated every rule. I tried to make up for it tonight by being extra vigilant but I guess I need to be a bit more careful or creative.
Damn I'm tired can barely keep my eyes open. Definitely looking forward to a major sleep in this weekend!!
Hang in there!!! I still only get one egg and a white a day so I don't know that pain yet! The raw egg in a shake is actually really not bad at all. I sorta like it. Makes it frothy!
ReplyDeleteFantastic report. You've truly broken up some muscle tissue. Sleep deeply and hit your nutrition grams and you're going to feel spectacular next week.
