Today I finally had some vanilla yogurt. I’ve had a bit too much of the plain stuff and it’s nice to have a change in flavor. Lunch was a re-run of yesterday’s dinner with brown rice and burger patty while dinner was fantastic. My wife made roasted potatoes. It’s so easy to make and tastes [...]
Today I was a bit smarter about my running than yesterday. I tried to keep my heart rate in the 144-161 bmp region for the runs and under 125 for the walks. I walked 0.3 miles then ran 1 mile and I repeated this 3 times. My running pace was at 10:10 which is a [...]
I’m really cutting these calories down. Maybe a bit too much. Today I ate the last of my plain yogurt and wasabi almonds. That wasabi stuff is good. It’s so flavorful and packs a good kick. And that tingly bite helps with portion control as well. I didn’t feel like packing my own lunch today [...]
Today I got my latest gadget and I had to take it for a spin. There is a track near work that is 1/3 mile long so I went for a run on it. I ran two miles, then walked one mile and ran another mile afterward. I think next time I’ll do one mile [...]
Today was chest day. I usually do my strength training over lunch but today I spent most of my time at lunch with cardio so I had to do it after work. My weights were solid I did feel a bit weak but the weights got lifted as planned. I even upped the weight on [...]
Today was good in terms of food again. I’m back to my yogurt/nuts breakfast I just don’t have enough time to make eggs on the weekdays. For lunch I had grilled shrimp again, it’s a pain in the rear when you buy shrimp that is not peeled and deveined. I hate to have to cut [...]
Today’s cardio was pretty much back to the grind, usual boring elliptical training twice a day. I did my 30 minutes at work and my 60 minutes at home at night. The home one was pretty tough and I kept thinking throughout the session that I’ll only do 30 minutes, 40, 45 minutes, ah the [...]
Today was back day. I did my three sets of three exercises and called it a day. It was an OK day in terms of weights and I felt fine. Not a whole lot to report on today’s exercise. Lat Pull 3×10 @ 120 lbs Seated Low Row 3×10 @ 130 lbs Chest Supported Row [...]
Here is my current state. I’m still not pretty but I’m getting there . From the last time I didn’t change too much but I think my triceps are coming in better with less fat around them, my flexed bicep measurement is about to drop a quarter of an inch, just not quite there yet. [...]
I just completed week 11 of my transformation. I have been hanging in there for close to 2.5 months now and the difference is amazing. Today I did a run in the neighborhood and my neighbor was coming up from behind me and they didn’t recognize me from behind. My body shape has changed so [...]
