Sunday 02/09/12 (Fathers Day, go easy on me)


190g Protein

180g Carbohydrate
75g Fat

Ok, so these last few days of properly outlining everything I eat tells me a few things (keeping in mind I'm aiming to hit 250gP/200gC/50gF each day):


1. I need to get more protein in. 

2. Fats need to be kept in check.
3. Until now, I was not getting in 200g of carbohydrates a day, no wonder my workouts have gone the way of the sewer rat.

I'll put this in perspective by saying that yesterday was Fathers Day, so I realised I was not going to hit the appropriate macros. I had eggs benedict for breakfast, roast beef and roast potatoes and sweet potatoes for lunch, and a chicken paella for dinner. Not bad for a 'falling off the bandwagon' day. The day before that I screwed up my fat intake by having 40g of fat in one meal, will not let that happen again. So in the end my only obstacle is getting in enough protein, which I can fix by upping my nightly intake. Apart from that, I was rather pleased with these results considering I'm still fine-tuning my necessary diet. Onwards and upwards
