I also wanted to test the correlation between my food & my training & learn a lot more along the way. All of which I have now experienced.

Obviously I didn't feel like the gym, for a whole 7 days! The only food I could stomach was complete junk. And my enthusiasm for Meal Prep.... well let's just say there was none, I haven't even checked how much protein I'm eating this week, let alone any other macros - not like me.
