Saturday’s Olympic Weightlifting Class with Ben, Jerimiah and instructor Trey Goodwin.

It has been awhile since the last post.  I am going to take another shot at this “Zone” nutrition plan but with a different approach.  I will try not to bore you with all the meals I eat and the exact amounts.  I will try to make this as interesting as a nutrition blog can be. 

The power outage we had last week messed up my “Zone” program a little.  I still tried to stick to it as much as possible but it was hard for me to weigh and measure like I should have.  As they say with “The Zone”; if you mess up don’t worry about it just get right back on track, so that is what I am doing. 

I started back strong yesterday.  I did really good with weighing and measuring everything I ate but I did have a few extra blocks of carbs in the evening from some holiday spirits.  Not counting my extra carb blocks from my evening night cap, I believe I was around 18 total blocks for the day.  I am shooting for 20 blocks a day but I can live with 18.  All in all it was a good day for my “Zone” program.

Today is going good.  I woke at 4:00am to spend 1 hour preparing all my meals for the day.  I have made a total of 6 meals for the day with a total of 18 blocks (4,3,2,4,2,3).  I will probably have a 2 block snack when I get home to make it a total of 20 blocks for the day.

I honestly can tell a difference in how I feel since I have been incorporating “The Zone” into my nutrition program.  I haven’t kept it exactly perfect but it is very close.  I am anxious to see what happens after a month. 

My nutrition was already pretty clean with mostly whole foods; however, I am realizing my portion sizes we a little larger than I needed and I no longer can eat half a jar of natural peanut butter and honey in one sitting.
