WL -4 lbs in 3 weeks
BF -2.5% (hah, I believe that, not - it means I would have gained something like 3lbs of muscle. In 3 weeks! I'm not on steroids, so seems IM-POSS-I-BLE to me)

nutrition over past week: 1526/51/24/25
averaging only 93 g of protein a day - would like to see that closer to 100.

nutrition over past 3 weeks: 1658 48/26/26 and 106g protein.

I am starting to feel skinny, and when my pants fall a little low, the edge of my abs is clearer than any pooches - which is definitely cool.

meals today:
chocolate protein oatmeal, mvi, omega-3
apple, string cheese
cajun style rice with bbq chicken breast and kale
spinach chicken pizza
cottage cheese and jello

(It's halfway thorugh the day and I'm behind a meal or so. I have NO appetite, and have to strain to reach 1200 calories - and I wouldn't really push myself to eat that much, except I did cardio. That's a huge change.)

exercise: cardio
well, I'm too sick to go into town and do boot camp. Maybe I'll do some DDR and quit when I cough so much I can't breathe...I actually feel MUCH better than I have the past 3 days so I don't think cardio is a bad idea today altogether, as long as I am gentle with myself. (rationalize. I should, however, knock back 300 cals of cardio simply so I can eat 1500 calories today. It may stimulate my appetite and I've been eating too little.

* did 45 min DDR2max, all nonstop levels at heavy/standard. I'm a wee bit beat now. Ack.

recipe: spinach pizza
3 servings, 262 cal, ratio 52/27/21 or 34g carb, 18g pro, 6 g fat

You lower the calories and improve to more BFLy ratios by using a low-carb tortilla or pita. You can raise the calories a bit but add more protein with lo-fat or nonfat parmisan cheese at the end. A sprinkling won't make much difference either way - my calculations show 1 tbs (real) parmesan cheese added over the three pizzas adds 7 calories to each pizza. Big whoop...

3 flour tortillas
1 4oz chicken breast, fully cooked
1/2 cup spinach leaves (cooked) or enough to cover 3 tortillas (raw)
1/2 cup pizza sauce
garlic or garlic salt to taste

Spread tortillas with pizza sauce, add spinach, then chicken torn into smaller pieces, throw on
garlic or italian seasoning or whatever, then if you want sprinkle on parmesan cheese. Can be wrapped in saran wrap and frozen at this point or microwaved - but is absolutely best in the toaster oven.
