Day 36 of 100 Days and still 19 pounds gone
2-5-07
Day 36 of 100 Days and still 19 pounds gone 265/246/200 I got on my scale just now and was pleased to see that I remain very close to 246. (My little indicator went just a bit over the 246 pound mark but I didn't move the indicator higher to see just how much higher it was. I know that if I keep on with my program, the weight WILL have to come off, unless the laws of physics are suspended in my kitchen.) I had about 3500 calories on Saturday and about 2500 calories on Sunday (yesterday). More than half the calories on Sunday and about 75% of them on Saturday were through sugar - e.g., melted frozen juice, fruit pies, etc. The reason for this heavy intake of sugar (not recommended for others and also not recommended for me) was the incredibly shut-down of energy I experienced two weeks ago while snowshoeing. After about three hours of snowshoeing, I just suddenly could not continue, had vision problems, extreme dizziness, etc. Then the person I was snowshoeing with gave me a power bar and within 10 minutes, I was moving down the trail pretty well. Yesterday I walked for a longer distance, for a longer time period, etc., and felt absolutely no diminution of energy. However, such high calorie fuel (sugar) can have harmful side-effects, is high caloric, is not very filling, etc. (When I used to run long distances, a 500 calorie fruit pie was useful for another five miles.) I did my little push-ups, crunchies, some light barbell lifts (lilfting 12 pounds in each hand rapidly for one minute) last evening. Today there's no major discomfort and I feel pretty darned good although I feel as though I have had a good workout yesterday! I'm cutting back on calories this week to make up for this last weekend's planned excess and I am pretty darned sure that the 20 pound loss mark is not too long in the future. I hope everyone has a great day today and a great week and month ahead! Yours truly, Caleb |
