Day 2

Yesterday ended with a *SPLAT*.

I had pasta. We're talking A LOT OF CALORIES. Eh.

This morning I had yogurt (170) and a Kellogg's diet bar (90).

Disappointed? Yes, I am.

Day 1 recap

Rather than talk about how annoying yesterday was (because of frustrating classes), I'd like to focus on the good.
  • Good: I ate in some moderation.
    • Breakfast: 3 eggs (210 calories), 4 thin pieces of ham/turkey (40), 1 piece of 7-grain toast (100 calories? i need to check)
  • Not so good:
    • Lunch/Dinner: turkey sandwich, macaroni and cheese (1800-2000?)
  • Good: Exercise was okay
    • 10 minutes on the bike (burned 100 calories)
    • maintained weight for biceps, triceps, bench
    • walked a mile at the track
Today turned out to be pretty good:
  • Good: Exercise was brutal
    • Peter indicates this means our work out last night (8 hours prior) was effective
    • Couldn't do all the weight I did last night, but certainly tried
    • 30 min on elliptical - 400 calories
    • Weighed 276.2lbs
  • Not so good:
    • Same breakfast as yesterday, but with some tater tots
    • Gonna have a salad for lunch, some pita chips and hummus for dinner
woot.

The Week of Gary

Well, it has regretfully been awhile. Nevertheless, I'm back in action after a relaxing yet uneventful weekend. I did, however, go grocery shopping, and am looking to minimize my purchasing food at school. I got yogurt, protein bars, ham/turkey for sandwiches, vegetables for tuna salad sandwiches, and hummus w/pita chips. In addition to my diet, I'm looking to this week to be relaxing, fun, eventful, productive, and inspiring. Here's a glance:
  • consume around 2500 calories a day
  • 500 crunches at least 3 of the days
  • still workout everyday
  • go out every night
  • do all my hw/reading
  • write at least 1 more song (maybe 2, we currently have 8 songs w/lyrics and chords)
My intent is to lose 10-15 lbs within the next 2 weeks. Oh yes, it is possible. And it is okay for me to do. It's go time!
