Upstairs neighbors are back bby 😅🔫

Today i am going to try to try and get a high protein number again. My roommate is gone the entire day + evening cause he will be travelling out of the country after work to pick up some music gear, so i have more time to do stuff since he will be home around 8 or 9 i am going to assume. The bad news is that my upstairs neighbors are home again and i think i will probably get a brain aneurysm from it :) Also meeting my new personal trainer/coach tomorrow and i am excited and super nervous!

I just got back from my walk with the dog. I took it really late (5PM) cause it was raining most of the day. The sun is shining now, funnily enough. I took a little bit of a longer walk. At the end of the walk we ran cause she heard bangs and thought they were fireworks and she wanted to run home. I am struggling right now to encourage myself to do something. I have to stretch and then after stretching i want to fix the broken shelf and clean behind my bed. I will stretch and then afterwards i have to clean for at least 30 minutes and i can get an energy drink for myself. I guess that will work. Then when i am done cleaning i can make my banana milkshake protein smoothie. Once i have consumed that i will be at 54 grams of protein for the day, but i would like to consume at least a 100 grams, so i have to figure out what i want to eat today. I might make pasta with my vegan tuna which will at least be 30 grams of protein and then i have to figure out what more i want to eat. I just checked and i have a protein bar left over so i guess i will eat that. And then i should have gotten my protein goal! I think it is easier to eat protein heavy one or two days and then eat a bit less on other days so you don't constantly have to force yourself to meet your target. I just asked AI and AI said that eating high protein at least 24 hours after your work-out is important. So i guess on the days that i work-out it is more important to eat high protein than on the days after? AI also said both days are important so idk. Anyways, what i am trying to do is being nice to myself and giving myself some breathing space. I don't have to do everything correctly and perfect 24/7.

I want to have a separate page on my blog with helpful links and videos that i have quick access to, like stretching videos and the like.

My roommate got home just a bit before 9, just as i expected. I just finished all my tasks i wanted to do for today so that's nice. According to my calculations i ate 1979 calories and 102.4 protein today but i do not think that is true. First of all, i definitely ate 1,088 calories today. That was everything without dinner. That would make 55.4 grams of protein. I did eat most of my dinner (which was 891 calories, 47 protein), but i shared a lot also with my dog. I think i shared anywhere between 30 to 50 grams of my dinner with my dog. So i think it is more realistic that i ate 1600~ calories and had 80 grams of protein or something. I am not sure. Either way that is a lot of calories LOL. I should've calculated the rest of my day before making dinner so i would've made less food. When i was very into my fitness journey i used to make a lot of tomato sauce for my pasta, because the vegan tuna i use has like 20 grams of protein for only 80 grams. So i would make a sauce and just eat it without pasta. I might have to start doing that again, or maybe throw it in the oven with a little bit of pasta to make it crispy (i love that). Either way i should watch out more. Probably also didn't help that i didn't take my meds today, so i will make sure to do that tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow...

Tomorrow i will meet with my personal trainer/coach. I AM PRETTY EXCITED BUT ALSO VERY, VERY NERVOUS. I really want us to click because i was reading my diary and realized that i have been trying to find someone to help me train for over 7 months!!! That is CRAZY. But as they say, 3 times a charm, so let's keep our fingers crossed! I actually got a message from him today to confirm our appointment for tomorrow. I am so nervous!!! I really want to make a good impression and for us to click. I will probably, after our appointment, hit the cardio section so i will go there in my gym outfit. I also don't know why he wanted to meet up at the gym so badly, hopefully he doesn't immediately want to train, but who knows. I am excited to get home and write here how my meeting went. My excitement for it makes me scared because i really do not want this to go bad. Dang damn damn. I feel like i haven't been this nervous for something in ages. Not even when i went to the party or to the few concerts me and my roommate went to, or meeting the other coaches, or meeting with my physical therapist or any other person or event, i don't know why this one makes me so nervous (yet excited)! Probably cause he will laugh at my video game addiction LOL.
