I went all out on my first cheat lunch. I was supposed to have my cheat meal on the weekend, but DH wasn't interested. Like he's following HIS diet plan. Anyway, I went to Buckhorn Grill in Embarcadero. It was an every so often haunt before dieting. I had a Big Buck (6 oz of tri-tip) a small bun, a mountain of tiny fried onion strings and a cookie. All after my 2 PM workout. I haven't been able to eat since. I am still full. Not digging the greasy burps either. Maybe next time I will focus less on bad fats as bad sugars.
This AM's WI was 229.6, same as last Saturday. I don't htink I'd expect a movement with no exercise. I wonder if it will go up tomorrow with the increased calories today. Not sure.
Back using the bodybugg. Since Tucker, now 14 mos, is self-weaning, my milk production is down and my calorie expenditure is going down too. To be expected. Should be interesting to see where it bottoms out at. Most exercise days, I burn between 2600-2900 cals and non-exercise days are about 2200-2400 cals. I exercise 6 days a week, so there are many of those, thankfully!
Exercise was strength day: I did assisted pull-ups, military presses with a green band and bodyweight squats. Squats didn't feel like enough of a workout, although it did get my heart rate up to nearly 125 at the peak of the pyramid. Must figure out a band way to do squats so I feel it more in my butt and quads. Also, I don't think I am doing the assisted pull-ups right because I didn't feel it in my lats. Of course, I am pretty strong in the lats. Last I was at the gym, I was at around 170 lbs on lats. Which reminds me of why the squats are doing, well, squat. I was pressing 225 lbs with my quads when last at the gym three months ago.
Wow, that was a lot!!
'til tomorrow!
