This is getting harder and harder. I had coke today =( I couldn't help it. I'm studying for midterms and am a bit stressed and ALWAYS hungry and really need the sugar to keep my brain activity high.

Day 18

How bad can it be when you get gto eat burgers! Yumm! I mean they were the healthiest burgers ever: lean beef, no cheese, minimal sauce, whole wheat buns but still I got to eat it GUILT free because it was NOT unhealthy. YUM! Workout today was great! I did 15mins bike afterwards which was nice. The pushups were HARD because my chest and arms are already really sore, but I tried to do as much as I could without collapsing on my face. I really have 1 workout and then a week and a bit. WOOHOO! Still no real results except what I can see and feel. Which is IMPRESSIVE for 18 days!

I've started guestimating a lot because it's really difficult to say how many calories exactly. Some foods may have more some less. Its hard because a lot of the food is ethnic and not always MEASURED to the cup.

The real challenge is to come though because the next 2 weeks are SUPER busy w/ school. I will conquer it all though! WOOHOO! Had a good workout. Threw sone extra abs in there!

Day 11

I'm pretty tired today. Don't know if it has anything to to with the workout or eating but I'm going to step up my water intake. Maybe decrease my caffiene intake. Todays workout was awesome. I def feel stronger. I even did 20 pushups (okay not all real pushups but still 20 girly pushups is pretty damn good for me!) I think I'm looking better but honestly I can't say for sure. Well only 19 days to go!!! I wish Jillian would come out with a book on how to maintain or went into more details about maintaining. What am I to do when I'm in killer shape but don't want to lose it? But I also don't want to continue this program because I really can't afford to lose more than 10lbs. That might even be too much. Any suggestions?

Toast w/ PB: 150 cal
Tea: 45 cal
Brown rice and Dal (lentils) - 350 cal

Day 7

Absolutely NO comment. Today was horrible, probably negated my entire week of hard work. In my defense my in-laws to be were here and we ate out twice both times not at healthy options. I will work EXTRA hard this week to undo this. I did try some minor portion control methods at first but then when I realized this day was a right off I gave in. OOPs. Hopefully it does NOT negate my entire plan. I promise nothing of this sort shall happen again.

Food:
CRAP
