Morning, Push-ups week 6 day 3 complete

I have completed the last day of the push ups program, now to prepare for the final test Saturday.

Breakfast
Today I started off with 2 boiled eggs, and a half sandwich with ham and cheese and mustard (I love that mustard has no calories). That kept me full but not over full, I let that settle for about an hour and a half well I had coffee, which I've always taken black since cream or sugar in coffee makes me feel weird and without cream and sugar there's no calories worth counting, same with tea.

Snack
After my stomach felt settled I started the last day of the push-ups, the final set is 60 push-ups. I almost died, after the 8 other variable sets, I had to stop around 40 without breaking form (in the plank position, like yoga) just to catch my breath, I completed 20 more to make 60, then I collapsed on the floor breathing heavy. After I caught my breath I grabbed one of those protein bars and drank some more water.

They say lots of people struggle with the last week, and I can see why, hopefully I can complete 100 push-ups Saturday, but if not I'll try week 6 again. I'm going to up my protein and my water intake as they recommend, and since there's not much work I should have no trouble keeping relaxed and saving my strength. I'll do my best.

Lunch
I'm starting to get hungry now I just haven't figured out what to eat.
