A great day yesterday. I took in the desired amount of calories, all full of good nutrition and got in plenty of exercise. A couple of hours spent at the YMCA always makes for a healthier feeling. I went to bed content and satisfied even knowing that in the morning my weigh in would be higher because of a very late large meal. Sure enough I was up to 255 this morning for a 2 lb gain, but really think that has more to do with timing than gaining weight. I haven't been eating anything late at night the past week, but last night didn't get to eat dinner until 9.
My workout was amazing. The lifts went really well, and I made it a full mile and a half at a constant pace averaging a 10 minute mile. That is a great accomplishment for me. I am going to have to keep it up though, because I am participating in a 3K Challenge called the Warrior Dash on August 18th. My wife talked me into it, but I am starting to look forward to it as I start shedding this weight and get in better physical condition.
I have had more people recommend that I up my calories so I have moved them up to 1800. I went to this recommended website: BMI Calculator that has lots of great information about calories and also gave me some insight on my body fat and overall health. The body fat number shocked me. My scale told me 32% this morning, I am not sure which is correct but prefer the website obviously. Well here is to another great day!
Food: 10 Good numbers all the way around.
Exercise: 10 Killed it!
