Week 2 Ends Tomorrow!

Just a reminder to stay tuned to Saturday's blog, where I will post an update to my weight & measurements. It will mark the end of the 2nd week. This week has been a little rough, but I managed to figure out a way to tastefully add more legumes to my diet, and my digestive tract seems to have fully recovered from Monday's fiasco.

Things I plan to include next week:
  • drink a glass of ice cold water before breakfast
  • 75 kettlebell swing squats before breakfast (I only have a 10 lb kettlebell)
  • 5 minutes minimum in cold shower every morning (I haven't been timing, and I'm sure I'm overestimating the time I spend under the rush of cold water).
  • commence my low-volume indoor triathlon training (too cold/snowy/icy outside - hard to swim in a frozen lake).
Continuing with:
  • slow-carb diet every meal
  • one day of DGW (dieters gone wild) each week
  • daily cold shower
  • weekly weigh-in/measurements
Results will follow.
This week I ate cottage cheese at a few meals, as Tim Ferriss did mention that the insulin response to cottage cheese is lower than it is to milk, and his mother consumed it with great results. Some meals just needed a little oomph, especially this week with the Monday trots I had.

I need to drink more water. Therefore, the ice water in the morning will serve as a double whammy. Ice to lower internal temperature, water to hydrate. I love multitasking.

Thanks for reading. More tomorrow.
