Eating Clean and Gaining Weight
July 5, 2009Today I gained two pounds after a good week of exercise and eating clean. Not a good day.<input type="hidden" id="gwProxy" /><input type="hidden" id="jsProxy" onclick="jsCall();" />
So Very Tired
July 1, 2009I got plenty of sleep, good sleep, but I am so very tired. This has been going on for the past 3 months now. The Doc said my blood work came back fine and could not give a medical reason for my fatigue (I was there for a diabetes checkup). So I guess this is all in my head, but it feels like it is more than that.
Anyway, I will fight through the fatigue. I took most of yesterday off and today is set to be another big day of exercise. I am still sore from the last set I did on Monday.
If I don’t drop weight this week I will be more than disappointed. I have done everything right and have been extra careful with the caloric intake.
6-30 A Fair Day
July 1, 2009I took most of the day off to rest from the 29th.
squats 60
Bench Pushups 25
6-29 A Good Day
June 29, 2009Today was a success. I lie here sore but feeling alive. Calories were under 2000.
30 min walk @ 2.8 mph
150 squats
25 bench pushups
60 calf raises
3 types of leg swings at 50 per side.
A New Week
June 29, 2009I was duly chastised in a comment to one of my blog posts for my attitude. It was deserved and I thank the person for slapping me around so that I could come to my senses.
The good news is that I did not gain weight last week and am still 20 lbs below my high weight. The bad news is that I did not lose any weight after a week of consistant exercise and clean eating.
So where do I go from here? I will tighten my caloric intake. Apperantly I was not eating as clean as I thought I was. So we will write everything down that goes in my mouth. I will also put my walnuts in 1 oz portions. Eating a ton of nuts may well have been my problem last week.
Exercise will intensify this week. I will up my body-weight squats to 60 a day and up my walking speed from 2.5 mph to 2.7 mph. I will also add weight training 3 x a week. This will probably consist of the routine coach Mike developed for me last year, but I really do not like the band workout that much.
Wish me luck and pray for me. I must beat this weight issue.
Not a Good Week I Guess
June 28, 2009I thought I had my eating under control and my exercise rolling at a steady pace. In the end I lost no weight in a week. I am a little more than down right now.
6-26 A Fair Day
June 26, 2009The day was fair. I started out very tired but pulled through to finish strong.
35 min walk @ 2.5 mph
50 squat
15 desk pushups

6-24 A Poor Day
June 25, 2009I simply could not wake up. I slept through the previous night, all day, and through the following night. The hell of it all is that I am still tired. No workout done at all.
