Week 19 - Sunday
The day went ok, except at night I was extremely hungry. I was craving protein after my work out and nothing seemed to fill it. I gave into temptation when Jose offered to go to the store to get beef jerky, and then I wanted a chocolate bar too - so he got me both. I ate them, but still wanted chili (which is what I was originally going to eat before Jose offered to get beef jerky).. so I ate that too. Not such a great idea. It makes me so angry when I do so well all day and then ruin it at night.

As a veggie I am all to familiar with protein cravings!
I know eggs will cure it for me, but others who are less shy about meat claim tunafish is a godsend!
Heck I even crave tuna!
Give it a try, it will certainly fill you up more than jerky!
