Three personal trainer sessions so far for 1.5 hours each and tomorrow I&#8217;ll be doing my second &quot;individual&quot; session, without the trainer. These shakes are getting on my nerves though. You just can&#8217;t have five shakes a day without getting sick of them. Five of anything really. Except maybe bacon, but that&#8217;s right out.<\/p>\n<p>Monday I see the dietician again. Hopefully I&#8217;ll be able to cut it down to 3 shakes a day, with meals, and eat something else for my 2 snacks.<\/p>\n<p>I got a new flavor of shakes today: kiwi, orange, guava. I&#8217;m not so sure what I think about them, but they are a change from vanilla.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if I&#8217;m using the right amount of strawberries in these shakes. The dietician said 1\/2 cup and I&#8217;m assuming that means volume of strawberries&#8230; It sure seems like alot though. Maybe they mean the dry volume complete with air. I&#8217;ve been submerging them in water and using the amount of displaced water to measure the volume of the strawberries. Seems reasonable to me.<\/p>\n<p>I bought a pretty cool heart rate monitor for the exercising: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.polarusa.com\/Products\/Consumer\/S410.asp\" target=\"_blank\">a Polar S410<\/a>. The nice thing about it is it keeps track of my rate all during exercise and when I get home I can download the workout log to my PC, which produces nice charts. And everyone loves charts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First week of 20\/20 is going well.
