I'm in Bum F*ck Egypt

Jan 06, 2010

Or so it seems.  In the middle of nowhere, VA, for the next 6 days.  Got here yesterday.  Didn't bring any protein.  Was thinking I'd grab some at a Smoothie King or something....WRONG!!  Not one close.  I'm in the dad gum woods.  Plus I don't even have a car here.  I'm basically in classes all day from 8 in the morning till like 9 pm or later.  Get to the room and have to do home work, gym, finish reading a book.  Not much time to do sh#t else cause I'm tired as hell.

Luckily there is a gym.  Only three meals per day from the mess hall.  The bad thing is that they have friggin snacks in the back of the class room all day.  Donuts, crackers, candy, soda, chips etc.  Argghhhhhh.  All the stuff I like but definitely don't need.  This is hard.  I try to eat as much protein at breakfast, lunch and dinner as I can.  Luckily, I can get a three egg omellette in the morning.  I try to load up with meats at lunch and dinner and try to get in at least 20 grams per meal. 

I got lucky and bummed a ride to a local mini mart and got three bags of jerkey.  That will help some.  Hopefully I'll be able to get to a WM to grab some protein this weekend. 

Key lesson here is never leave home for a week without packing protein.  Sucks!!!!
