100 Grams of Protein a Day

So...call me a "gym-dog-wanna-be" I don't care :) Since November I have pretty much gone to the gym at least 5 days a week (sometimes 6) and now? The effort is really starting to payoff. However, I have been told that I am losing too much weight! I guess they are correct since I really didn't start eating like a horse when I started. And so I asked my friend M what protein supplement he uses and bought this gallon jar of it! (It's actually pretty damn tasty too...like sugarmilk).

So I noticed the jar this morning while I was downing my 3rd bowl of Lucky Charms (the gayest cereal in the world I mean..you can get all ROYGB and a rainbow in your tummy) and thought to myself, "So how much protein a day have I been taking?"

And then I was like "HOLY crepe-murtle, Batman! I'm downing about 100g a day!" so I decided to Google and see if that is normal for weight training...and it's actually LESS than what other training people intake. Needless to say, this is going to get expensive :( One jar at $35 has 15 servings (which is about one week) *faint*. But I always believed that beauty has it's price. And since I'm already paying the piper in the gym I might as well pay the salesgirl at the counter huh? LOL :)

I also decided to upgrade my nipple rings to a 10 gauge this weekend and what did I do the next day? I went to step aerobics class. I think I am going to have to put bandaids on them for the next few weeks while they reheal! LOL :) I mean it was like "boing! ow! boing! ow!" or "jumping-ow-jack, jumping-ow-jack" *tee hee* I honestly was holding my man-boobs at some points. I think the instructor knew what was going on because he kind of grinned at me when I would do that LOL. Thank goodness I don't get embarrassed easily (if at all).

So softball season is gearing up. I have work in the queue for the Hotlanta Softball Website (which I maintain) as well as a team meeting this Thursday. I can't wait!
