Day twenty four...I will learn to love squats.

I could do the leg press, machines, deadlifts, and cycle all day but single leg step ups and deep squats with weights? No thank you. Just shows me that I need to work on my lower body strength. One day, I will do them without wanting to scream out loud or thinking about throwing my weights across the room. My legs and back feel like jello. I see a lazy day of cooking, eating, pool time, and sleeping in my future.

Breakfast: 3 boiled eggs, 4 oven roasted sweet potato wedges, 1 cup coffee.

Post workout meal: 6 oz grilled chicken breast, 1 apple.

Lunch: 6 oz char grilled wild salmon, 1 cup mixed greens, 1 cup red cabbage, cilantro, yellow bell peppers, 2 strawberries, 6 grape tomatoes, 1/4 cup broccoli slaw, balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

Dinner: 12 oz char grilled steak (thats right)- marinated in fresh ginger, tamari soy sauce, and olive oil, 1 grilled serrano pepper, grilled portabella mushrooms, and 6 asparagus spears with fresh lemon and olive oil. After a long nap, this girl was ready to eat. I'm pretty sure I had my protein intake for the day so any snack for the rest of the evening will involve fruits and veggies:) 

Snack: 1 apple, handful of carrots.
