I'm not 100% certain that I'm measuring in the exact same places as last week for my bicep and thighs. I've made a note in my notebook of where I measured this week, so I can measure in the same place again. The other three measurements are in the same place, though, so that's pretty impressive progress... Although keep in mind that last week was *ahem* THAT week, so I was a little bloated in the beginning (which accounts for such a drop in the waist).
I ended up picking up protein powder on Tuesday. It's a small price to pay for not having to eat ALL. THE. DAMN. TIME. I normally eat ~1200 calories a day.. and mostly in carbs. So the new calorie requirements for me are hard to deal with (1800) when you're reducing carbs and half of everything you have is PROTEIN. On Monday I just wanted to die. This way, I can have a protein shake in the morning and in the evening and not worry so much about it.
And the other positive thing is that I talked to Chris' Mom, and there is an exposed beam upstairs that I can use for pullups/with the resistance bands. Yeah! It'll suck having to run up and down the stairs in the middle of a workout, but it is better than not doing them at all!
Alright, week 2. Bring it!
