Day 24 - Case Study (274.2)

Well, it is been a very interesting over these first 23 days. Last night I completed all of the journal entries of what I've eaten and met Matt I am still down 2 pounds despite hovering around 3000 cal a day.  with the week off from exercise I still put in a good solid two weeks of weightlifting and some cardio even a little bit of kickboxing. At the end of it all I believe the take away here is that I can increase my calories and still lose weight. 

another Takeaway is that I really do need to manage myself a little bit tighter and give myself goals that I can hit every few days. it seems that when I see progress I can continue quicker and more efficiently.

Last of all my blood sugar is high as it's been all year and I can't see anything

Today I went and ran on the Eliptical machine - felt good...always does.
Evening time was debachery -  pizza, beer, wine, sweets.  Just free falling.
I need to curb this quick because my blood sugar is on the rise big time. Could really kill me.

Didn't make it to the gym.  Was hung over a bit from Fridays poker night.  Made dinner for the lady

Tons of booze and then candy in the evening.  I just enjoy my weekends, need to teach my self that enjoyment doesn't mean mistreatment of the body and mind.

Day 19 - Body and Mind for Life

Well here we are Friday and I'm just as excited about this journey as I was two weeks ago even though I haven't worked out in almost a week and I've definitely been cheating on my diet. I just know that there is no starting over and there is no changing of the goals I want to go after it.
