Day 18 / 90
Phase 1 , Week 3 , Routine 5
Legs & Back, Ab Ripper X
Weight:   275 lbs     -     Loss:   23 lbs
% Loss:   7.7 %     -     Rate:   0.428 %

Today was a very bad day. I got started late again. I was going to get up early this morning, but when I woke up at 3:30am this morning, my son was already up. I tried to tell him it was too early, and that he needed to go back to bed. Meanwhile, I went back to bed for another thirty minutes hoping he would follow my lead and go back to bed. This process continued until 7:00am, when I had to get the girls up for school. My son was still up. When I finally got started on the workout, I really did not feel in to it. There are probably many reasons(bad sleep, son awake, weight loss drought, phase 1 burnout, errands due today, etc.) I realized about forty minutes in that I was doing a lot of the move without intensity, and my son(and the dog) was constantly underfoot. I hit eject. No Ab Ripper X, also. I am a looser. I will be better tomorrow. My son IS GOING TO stay up late without any naps today.

I also had a bad diet today. I was surprised with a Whataburger lunch, and for some reason I thought I could get something reasonable. I thought wrong. The chicken sandwich meal that ordered came out to 2750 calories if I ate it all. So, I ate part and saved the rest for the kids to share. Even still, 850 calories for lunch was too much. Whataburger should be called WhataWeightGain. I still stayed under 1500 calories for the day but I had too few meals and too many calories per meal.

The good news is the drought may be over. I finally lost a pound today, but after todays workout+diet I may have it back tomorrow.

Diet:
  • Lean Pocket - 280 cal.
  • Crystal Lite - 20 cal.
  • Whataburger Chicken Sandwich Meal - 850 cal.
  • Pizza - 320 cal.
Total: 1470 cal.
