Week 2

Woo! Week 2 is down! 

This week has been pretty busy, Sunday evening I attended the Cleveland Natural Hair Care & Fitness Expo and had a great time. I met some wonderful people and gained a lot of knowledge. 

I met this fitness expert Sabrina Davis; and I talked with her and told her about my story... how I was on a weight gain journey and have been doing pretty well but I figured with her being an actual trainer should could give me some more help and tips. So I ended up purchasing the 10 Day Cleanse, the fact I'm suppose to see results in 10 days made me want to try it out. She recently sent me the plan, it included what I should eat for the 10days as well a grocery list. When you hear the word "cleanse" you think clearing out your system however I have a 10 Day Weight Gain Cleanse. Cool right? Hopefully it works out for me. I'm not sure when i'll go out and purchase some of the items listed so I can start plus I have to make sure I set aside a good week when I am not doing anything to start and follow the plan. 

This time  around I created a food diary and wrote down the meals I have been eating throughout the day, I still don't count calories because that is too much. If I eat the 8 meals a day like i'm suppose to I am likey to reach my calorie intake. Now I've been slacking eat my 8 meals a day but I manage to get in at least 6-7 meals. Most of my calories comes from my shakes I do know that so if I miss a meal I make sure I make me a shake to kind of catch up. I started drinking the Boost Plus it I don't really like the taste compared to the Ensure. I found myself drinking one right before bed, I didn't add it to my shakes because it makes the shake nasty to me. As well I started taking my zinc but I forgot about it so I only took it for one day. So this week i'll make sure to take it with the others(recently purchased a multi -vitamin and fish oil). I bought me a pill case so I can remember to take them everyday because I suck with taking pills. 

Lastly I have this e-reader i'm not sure of the name of it but it's with borders and it's the old version but I came across some great books to read since I'm not going to be working out until I reach 120 lb maybe. You know I found a book that deals with gaining weight so I picked up the "Dr Reuben's Quick Weight-Gain Program*" By Dr. David Reuben this book is so amazing. I've gotten some more tips for gaining weight as well the books include recipes and much much more.
