Adrian & Emiko: Day 27, In the Valley

We've been experiencing a dip in energy this week, and we think it's due to the reduced portions of our diets.  We haven't been getting very hungry, but we've felt our energy levels drop, and the exercises have been a bit tougher to complete.  Tomorrow is the beginning of week 5, and we start our new diets.  

For dinner, Adrian gets a new item on the menu: a spoonful of cooked rice.  "WTF?  How do I cook a spoonful of rice?  Is this some kind of joke?  I don't have a hobbit-sized rice cooker."  He also gets 50 grams of veggies for dinner.  Meat at lunch time has been cut by 20 grams, which isn't too much of a difference, because he's been eating only 100 on most days due to forgetfulness.  Dinner milk is gone, which means no more smoothies, or banana & milk soup ;(.  He's also boosted to a whopping 5 eggs a day.

Emiko's diet is exactly the same as it was before, except that she no longer gets a banana for dinner. So she will also have to go without banana-milk soup and smoothies. Noooo!!! The only new addition is a post-work-out egg-white, which is not so nice as a banana.

So we're sticking to these portions for the next few weeks, and then they will be gradually increasing. It will be interesting to see how our bodies and energy levels will be affected during the next month. Hopefully we will adjust to these new diets, especially because life has been very busy!
