Now you all have a record of my nutrition and workout plans for the next 2 weeks.  Please hold me accountable to doing these things.  I have read Adam's blog today and I'm trying to determine how to get 10 points out of this each day.  I think I'm going with a similar strategy to Adam's.  I will give myself 1 point for each meal (5 meals = 5 points), 1 point for meeting my water goal (1 point), 1 point for post-workout meal (1 point), 1 point for training (1 point), 1 point for accountability blogging/pictures (1 point) and 1 point for pre-sleep shake (1 point) for a total of 10 points.  On the rest day, I will give myself points as follows:  1 point for each meal (5 meals = 5 points), 1 point for meeting my water goal (1 point), 2 points for having a rest day (2 points), 1 point for accountability blogging/pictures (1 point) and 1 point for pre-sleep shake (1 point) for a total of 10 points.  I believe this will work, so it is the plan I'm going to stick to.  There are 40 days until the end of my first mission (including February 3, 2008), so I will have a possible 400 points during this time period.  Let's see how I do!

Until tomorrow...
