The Adventures of Fat Yip

Random hilarious Asian cartoon video: I LOVE EGGS!!!

I thought that eating the 5 eggs at 7AM would mean I’d be hungry at work by 10ish but I really was ok. It was kind of weird not going out to lunch with my coworkers. I haven’t brought a lunch to work in OVER A YEAR. The first thing I did do when I got to work was get rid of my snack drawer. I have candy and snacks galore in one of my desk drawers and told my coworkers to go ahead and raid it so I have no urges at all. Lunch was still tasty but beginning to get old. I’m going to have to sub my 8oz of top sirloin for salmon soon.

With lunch done at 1pm I then started worrying if I’d make it to dinner which was waiting for me back in San Francisco almost 2 hours away. Luckily I had my 1/2 avocado snack at 3pm. I used a spoon and took my sweet ass time to finish it. I did start getting a headache around 4pm which I usually don’t get. I’m not sure if it’s because my body is finally yearning for some glycogen or if I was just sleepy. I refused to take any advil or ibuprofen to help make it go away. I just drank more water and made it to 5:30PM where I was able to sleep in my coworker’s car on the drive back to SF.

I got back home just past 7pm SOOO TIREDD. I think I’m starting to feel it now. I decided to push myself to play some basketball. I played 1 game and my body was giving up on me. I had no energy and all the locals at the court kept asking why I wasn’t trying or running fast breaks like I usually do. It was painful but I knew that dinner would taste that much better and also that I’d be eating closer to 8pm now instead which means I shouldn’t be too hungry by the time I go to bed.

At my lunch today I was also able to stop by my friend Mike’s parents’ Japanese restaurant in Fremont to pick up some supplements that Mike left for me. The restaurant is called Semo Sushi and it is BOMB.COM. Too bad I couldn’t eat anything. Mike left me Combat (2 scoops before bed), BCAA (1/2 serving for breakfast, 1 serving for dinner, 1/2 serving before bed), and Re-con (1/2 serving for breakfast and dinner) all made by Muscle Pharm. I haven’t taken supplements before so we’ll see how shredded I get!

THANK MIKE!

Overall, I am EXHAUSTED. My plan, which I think is working, was to work out A TON and be super sore every day. That way I wouldn’t be able to tell if I was tired because I was sore or just tired because I’m not getting any carbs. I think I’ll feel a cumulative of both coming soon…
