Solid weekend! Spent Saturday
The rest of the weekend was pretty relaxing. Dinner with new friends and a couple beers with old ones. I will politely point out that grocery shopping post patio beers will make you forgetful as hell. There's a shopping cart somewhere with a case of bottled water still on the bottom. If you find it, let me know, I paid like $5 for that sumbitch. Shit.

20lb barbell - 10 reps x3
10lb dumbells - hammer curls - 10 reps x3
24lb pulley - 10 reps x3
Then, I got home and did something I rarely do. I cooked breakfast. By some kind of miracle I still got to work on time. Then I packed my lunch and did some math so I could add up my protein #'s for the day. Today I have consumed, or will consume, the following:
• 2 egg whites
• 1 strip turkey bacon
• 1 cup spinach
• 1 cup 2% milk
22g of protein
• 1 tilapia filet
• 1 small chobani yogurt
30g of protein
• 1 small chobani yogurt
7g of protein
• 2 grilled chicken drumsticks (no skin)
• 2 servings of fresh mozzarella
50g of protein
109 total grams of protein ain't too shabby! A good question is How Much Protein Do Women Really Need? and after doing the math it looks like I should be around 90. So I'm pretty good to go. I'm curious to see how a protein increase affects my hunger and energy levels for the day. I'm hoping to go for a run this evening and a few other nights this week!

Do you have a fitness challenge for yourself this week? Tell me about it!
Hey Tara! Read your post, and thought I'd comment :) Personally, I have found that upping my fats and protein has seriously negated my hunger...it's crazy. I'm not hungry in between meals, and I hardly think about food when it's not time to eat. It has been a god send
