6-9-14: Back to work; Nutrition + Training

I am still recovering from my week Long vacation in Puerto Vallarta. It seems as if whenever I come back from vacation I feel tired and wrecked and need a vacation to recover from my vacation. Any-who, I will be going back to my nutritional plan that I experimented on last year for a few months. The Nutrition "plan" is nothing fancy; I will just be eating vegetables, fruits, meats, chicken, and fish throughout the week without any bread/grains/or pasta. I will not be worried about my liquid intake, only my foods. The weekends will be my days where I can eat whatever I want. So 5 days of eating extremely healthy, 2 days eating whatever I want. I've experimented with many nutritional choices throughout the past 2 years and finally figured out that this is the best way to go. Every person's body responds differently to various nutritional choices so I recommend you experiment with different types of foods. However, just be sure to stick with a certain game-plan for more than a couple weeks as it takes months for your body to adapt to a new nutrition plan. If you start a new plan and don't see results in 4 weeks, do not stop that plan because it takes much longer than that to see the effect of Nutrition plan changes. Here is a picture of the kind of foods I will be eating. I will be mixing these foods shown with bacon, chicken, steak, eggs, fish, and other types of pork.

1 red onion + 1 Cucumber sautéed with 1 orange juice + 10 Lemon Juice. Add sea salt and pepper and let it chill in the fridge for a few hours.
