Finally Friday arvo!
Channel 9 are running an advert for a game show called Temptation: they make "fun" of Sweden (they are giving away 2 Volvo's) and what they are doing, lol dressing up as Vikings, topless, Abba and dresses up in "Swedish" traditional costumes, or rather supposed to look like they are (wrong colors etc) if you dont believe me this is from the press release: "Up for grabs are two topless Swedish beauties … eye-catching convertible Volvo's."
Feeling good tonight, relaxing in the couch, just had a massive dinner )no2) of kangaroo and a big salad, sweet and sour sauce! BF is still at the gym, he had to work longer today. Were just going to relax with a DVD tonight. Just enough!

IF again
Okay, so I'm a bit worried that i get so cold during the day. I did get cold before (I'm sitting under a air con outlet) but not that cold. I will see what I feel like during the weekend and if its different...
It feels like winter!
Today and yesterday has been very cold and rainy. Got soaked this morning on the walk. Bleh… but what can you do… We even had a bit of thunder yesterday. Jackson gets scared (well.. not sure if I would call it scared, he don’t want to be outside) and tried to get either in (kind of hard since I wasn’t home) or out from the backyard. He couldn’t get out! The gates worked! YAY! Im stoked!
The plans for the weekend: were going to one of R’s friend’s girlfriend’s birthday party. He has been sick (the friend) so there is a chance there might not be a party. Im a bit daunted on going since I wont know a lot of people, I have met some of them before, they where at the competition and we went out for tea after, I was a bit unfocused lol but they where nice and I’m sure it will be good. If were going that is, R is like me and not a bit party person so well see..
Then on Sunday the wall is coming up! The rest of it that is! SUPERCALAFREAKINGAWESOME!!!
R and I are still sort of talking about moving in together, he has a lot of good point and I think living with him would be all right. Plus it would save a lot of money… and the dogs would be happy with that, they totally adore him… and he has ducted air-condition… it is a bit early still but its worth thinking about…
Second day of IF! Must say I love not being hungry… I was a bit yesterday around lunch and here and there but even less today. It will be interesting to see how it goes over the weekend… I’m feeling less focused on food. Always a plus! My pre bedtime meal was very tasty! Cottage cheese and peanut butter rocks!!! I do feel a bit cold but I’m used to that…

A quick word about the old blogg
Since metrobloggen.se is constantly down and have a dodgy editing functionality that keeps crashing on me and since they have started throwing in odd advertising in my blog i decided to swap! This site is great! A+!
I stated on the other site that i had moved and they deleted everything that I had written.

Intermittent Fasting
I have decided to start with Intermittent Fasting. Since I’m constantly hungry and could eat double from what I normally do. I’m still a bit to focused on food. So the IF method for gaining muscle makes sense from what I have read about it. (http://leangains.blogspot.com)
Basically it claims to make you put on muscle with a minimum of fat (since im not dieting) and reduce your hunger, food obsession etc. So Ill try (R raised an eyebrow but wished me good luck, being the old school bb person it goes against a lot of the ideology) for a couple of weeks and then re-evaluate.
Since I’m still gaining weight in eating around 2000-2300 ill keep that up. It might have something to do with the Saturday going out dinners and lollies lol but ill keep it that way for now.
Meals
Fasting 16 hours eat 8
Workout days (2300 cal)
Meal 1 15.00 Around 500kal carbs, fats and protein
Meal 2 19ish (after gym, carbs and protein) 750cal
Meal 3 21ish (greens, proteins and fats) 750cal
Meal 4 22 (protein and fats) slow digestive protein like meat/CC and good fats like peanut butter
Ill probably hoover around these values but I'm not to strict.
Non workout days, (2000 cal)
Meal 1 15.00 500cal
Meal 2 18.00 500cal
Meal 3 20.00 500cal
Meal 4 22.00 500cal
From what I have read people keep their carbs really low on the non workout days but since I’m not dieting ill keep them in, just keep meal 4 to protein and fats.
The macros will be a minimum of 200g protein, minimum of 60g of fats and the rest carbs, depending on what day it is. Plus i will have a relaxed meal of whatever i want on Saturdays (as in not worrying about carbs fats and stuff)
Results so far, just had my first meal (training day) with a cup of tea and I am full!
I have been randomly hungry during the day but mainly when I have smelled food. I have been feeling cold but surpisingly good.
Hmmm... will be interesting this!
