"Jane says I'm done with Sergio" Day 10


It's nice to be on the PCP diet.  Leading up to it I felt like an addict needing to eat a little more junk food before having to quit.  So far so good.  Food prep time is a little long right now, but with a some organizing in the fridge I think things will go smoothly.  I have mostly just been eating raw veggies, chicken, some fish, shrimp, and a piece of lamb (thanks Naila), and for carbs I started off with a lot of bread, but have been adding in pasta and oatmeal.  Some of the meals have looked great and tasted great.  Others have been like a garbage bowl...for example this morning I took a bunch of kale threw it in a blender with milk then added it to oatmeal with hard boiled eggs, and chopped carrots (sorry no picture).  It feels like a lot of food almost too much.  I find myself forcing down the last couple bites, but I'm usually ready to eat when it's time for the next meal.  I feel like I am learning a lot more then just fitness.  How to prepare a healthy meal of course, also how to blog, how to take a photo.  For example which photo do I post?



 One more recent meal.  This is on a plate I hardly ever use because it's huge.  Although my vegetable serving usually doesn't take up half the plate.

  1. food looks good man...be weary of oatmeal, granola, and other cereals, some are super dense in carbs and can be deceptive....

  2. What does that mean? I'm eating it for carbs.

  3. Basically, the more water a food has in it, the less calories it contains.

    Example...100 grams of green peppers has a lot fewer calories then 100 grams of oatmeal.
