Day 6 on Atkins 20

It was a good day as I head into the end of my first week. I am still way too sedentary right now. Essentially if I am not out at the reservoir with my kids I am not doing anything. That will change when I get an exercise machine in my home. My plan is to watch Cubs games while I exercise. I will workout during the game and rest in between innings. I would love to somehow get a rowing machine but they can be quite pricey so I may just settle on a bike for now. I need something low impact because my knee can't handle a treadmill or the like. I am feeling very thirsty through all of this so I am always carrying my water bottle around. I have no idea how much I am drinking but it is a lot and only water. I also began implementing Atkins shakes into my meals. I made the mistake of having one for breakfast and I was hungry all day for the first time. I think I will shift them over to snacks for now until my stomach shrinks a bit more.

Okay, on to my meals for Day 6:

Breakfast - Atkins Chocolate Shake

Lunch - 6 Romaine lettuce tacos w/beef, tomatoes, sour cream and cheese (6 is more than normal but I was extra hungry)

Dinner - 6 oz chicken breast cooked in 1 TBS Olive Oil, 1 cup shredded zucchini sauteed in butter

Snacks - AM - 1 mozzarella stick, PM - Cookies and Cream Atkins shake YUM!

Total counts for day 6, 20g Carbs, 1330 Calories, 87g fat, 104g protein
