Started the Chocolate Whey!!
Opened up my 4KG bag of chocolate Whey! This stuff is great, tastes fantastic, now I dread the day I open the 4KG Vanilla bag, barf!!
The Hunger comes!
I am definitely feeling hunger this week, very strange, first week didn't feel anything at all.
Also the diet is making my head feel kinda hazy, studying is really hard which might be a problem since I have exams approaching. Had some assignments this week which I really struggled with.
I have also missed a few workouts. This is not really because of the diet, this is because of my irregular sleeping hours mostly.

Great Discovery!
Today I realized I don't have to fill my Whey Protein Shaker ALL the way to the top with water. I can just fill it half way!
This greatly reduces that bloated feeling after drinking a shake, and also makes the shake much creamier.

Todays Update
Well its going pretty well, its Friday so not going out was a bit of a pain. Yesterday was GYM day, and I definitely felt weaker than usual.
And towards the end I was getting the "I want to throw up" feeling. Not great.
And by the way I am doing the Mens Health Home Grown Muscle workout. Phase 1, beginners Dumbbell option.

Starting stats now up! + Fitday!
Went to the store and borrowed their scale ;-) Put up my stats in the earlier post below.
Overall today went well, still getting through all shakes is a challenge though. Not feeling all that hungry, but when food commercials come on they do mess with your head!
There is a strange craving for food creeping in which has nothing to do with hunger, weird.
Also opened up a Fitday.com account, much easier to track my intake that way.

Day 1: Teething Problems!!
Well day one is almost over, and I have run into a few early problems.
The biggest problem is that its UNBELIEVABLY HARD to drink this much protein in a single day! By the time my third protein shake of the day came around I was feeling ridiculously full, I am sure this will improve over the next few days as I adjust my timing.
The second problem is that I don't have a food scale, and so it was quite difficult to figure out the exact number of Carbs I was getting.
I do have a scoop for the Whey, but i suspect that it might not be too accurate.
So tomorrow I am off to buy myself a digital kitchen scale!
Today was also a workout day, and I didn't feel any worse then I usually do, but I suspect there are still plenty of Carbs in my system from last night, so we will have to wait and see how it goes.
