I took another set of pictures tonight. My chest and thigh went down a bit and my hip went up. I must have measured it wrong the last time. My hair is getting longer and I can’t take a decent 45 degree shot for the life of me, especially now that my father-in-law wasn’t around [...]
Today’s eating was great. Until I have decided to eat dessert after dinner. It was stupid peer pressure from my wife who made something called Raspberry Delight. It’s basically Graham Cracker crust, raspberries in raspberry jello and finally covered with a marshmallow whipped cream topping. I added up all the ingredients and it came out [...]
I did do my lunchtime cardio just fine today. But I have skipped my evening one. We’re supposed to get some massive cold front tomorrow and I thought it was coming tonight so I spent the evening cleaning the garage to be able to park both our cars inside, I’m just not a big fan [...]
Today was legs and abs day. I haven’t had one for 2 weeks. I have skipped the twisting oblique, with the extra rest between exercises that I’ve been taking I just didn’t have time for it today. I’ve also felt a bit weaker than usual even though I have used the same weights. I’ll need [...]
Today was almost the mirror image of yesterday. The only exception is that instead of the bacon and the lima beans for dinner I had a 10% fat burger patty. Other than that my meals were identical. The beef patty had a bit more protein than the lima beans and the bacon combined so I [...]
Today was the first time I have actually managed to put in two cardio sessions in one day since 12/23/09. I’ve been on vacation and yesterday I have skipped the evening one for a movie. I did two pretty decent cario sessions and the both felt fine. I was watching Biggest Loser while doing the [...]
Today was my first back day in a long-long time. But it went great. I really had a good time, I concentrated on having plenty of rest between sets, time permitting, and my lifts were good. I did 120 lbs on the lat pulldown which felt just right and I did my usual 130 lbs [...]
Today was another perfect day on calories. That is if you don’t care about sodium and cholesterol. Sodium was a bit high with 2,500 mg but not terrible. Cholesterol was through the roof but I’m not too concerned with cholesterol I eat, I’m more concerned with cholesterol in my blood and I’m not convinced about [...]
Today was the first day that I was back at work and I did my lunch time 30 minute cardio session. I just remembered how much more I like the Precor machine at work compared to the Sole that I use at home. Then again it cost 4x as much so it makes sense that [...]
Today was the first strength exercise I’ve had in a while. I was feeling pretty good until I got down and set up to do some bench press. I usually put about 100 lbs on bench press but last time I went I have upped it to 130lbs and I could manage it just fine. [...]
