Today was great. I did extraordinarily well on the diet and I got a ton of running in. Due to some cancelations today, I was left with 3 hours to get my workouts in! I went running all around the city for about an hour, came back trained a client and took another two hours to so some more cardio and weights. For the first half of the day I only consumed about 900 calories. Normally this would not be beneficial to my metabolism but my body was running on all the glycogen (stored carbs) that I ate the two nights before. Heres the diet for Friday day 16.

I'd also like to note that the fat free dressing I requested at Potbelly was likely not fat free. I could see oil spots floating around on the top so I estimated for an extra 50 calories for the dressing. Corporate America cares nothing about your physique, it's up to you to keep up the watch for hidden calories. I have a great article on my other blog @www.derrickinglut.com that talks about how PAM cooking spray and Splenda DO HAVE calories. Plenty of them. Check it out here!
