Let the adherance to my strict 4.5 day eating plan commence! Starting off at 184 (after enjoying some tasty carby food over the weekend), took start pics, and not feeling hungry at all at the moment.
To shake off the weekend gain, I'm meal replacing breakfast and dinner with shakes today, having adobo wings for lunch, having a post workout shake, and will drink plenty of water today. Workout will include 15 minutes of HIIT running and 1 hour of Mt Biking followed by a home workout of pushups and delt training.
Today will be a good day!
So, basically, this is an experiment to see how much I can trim down by Friday morning by staying away from sugars/carbs and having a good mix of cardio and weight/body resistance training.

Cool. OK let's talk about shakes. What are you using? I see the whey isolate. Are you making any of your own? I make a recovery drink and then a smoothie for consumption after every ride. I have papaya and pineapple for tomorrow's smoothie (that is, if I can sneak a ride in). You take good pics. Can't wait to see them and compare the measurements when you're down to goal. What is that goal again?

I usually keep it simple and have the shake as is for meal replacement and post workout. I'll add a shake of cinnamon to it most time. I like this one due to it's simplicity, low carb/sugar value, and that's it's filling.
I've found that since I've gone to a low carb routine, I very rarely need a true recovery shake or meal. It's pretty cool. I remember in the old days when I didn't know jack about proper eating for my bod, I was always so drained after a workout and definitely needed something for recovery. These days it's just water and protein for the muscles after an intense run or mt bike session and I'm golden. If I think I need some pre-workout energy, I'll have some macadamias or cashews to get some good natural fats to use as energy. But if for some reason I do hit a wall, I have some gel packets in my camelbak as last resort fuel.
Your smoothie's sound tasty! What are the contents?
The goal for this week's challenge is to lose 7 lbs!

Sounds good. Are you losing 7 lbs this week? Wow. You're a rockstar. I took my smoothie recipe from that Thrive book I've been reading and talking about. I definitely like vegan, raw or lightly cooked path, for both diet and performance. Still trying to increase my speed and ride better overall. My Tropical Pineapple Papaya Smoothie had the following ingredients: 1 medium banana, 1/2 medium papaya, 1/2 cup diced pineapple, 2 dates, 1 tbsp each of ground flaxseed, hemp protein and coconut oil and 2 cups water (or 1 1/2 cups of water and ice). He says the ice helps it be more effective. Simply blend all the ingredients together in a blender. Makes about 3 1/2 cups, or 2 large servings. I drank one in the car, driving to my client today in CT and saved one for tomorrow if I (hopefully) get a ride. It's supposed to rain tomorrow. Anyway, they can be kept up to 3 days in the fridge.
