Monday February 11, 2013


191.4

No less than four trips to the bathroom overnight. Luckily that means the water is flowing.
Was fired up to hit the gym early and bust out the new routine. Weight room was crowded with familiar faces, making it hard to keep rest cycles to 45 seconds. Hobbled down the stairs on my way, a true indicator of a good leg workout. Catching traffic on the way into work did my hamstrings no favors.

Crazy headache for most of the day. Probably from work and not the gym.

The new diet seemed to go over well today. Never felt hungry, but definitely felt the effect of two days of rice sitting in my system. Hopefully I adjust, as the feeling of a lump in my gut may get old.

My goal macros were 1980 +/- cals, 40 g fat, 215 g carbs, 190 g protein. Following the suggested weights I ended up a 2253/45/235/240. I expected to be slightly high on carbs due to cups to oz conversions measuring veggies (but fiber should account for the bulk of that, ha ha). Interestingly enough the greatest contributor of fat today was green beans.

Looking forward to sleep tonight. The last few days have been abusing my lower body. Big leg day, two days of clearing snow and slippery surfaces, then an even bigger leg day. My foam roller is my BFF lately.
