My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Seven (Part One)

Weight: 232.2lbs at 10:38am.

Crap. Put back on 2 lbs. Not good. Either way, I don't have work today, so I'm going to try to do an extended workout. I'll put up what I actually do later today. Just woke up.

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Six

Quick post today. Dieting's going fine, though I had carrots yesterday rather than broccoli/salad. So, my bad on that.

Weight: 230.4lbs (7:50am)

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Five

So I thought there was going to be a part two to yesterday, but that didn't happen.

Weight: 232.0lbs (7:23am)

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Four (Part One)

My right leg is cramped up like crazy. I didn't drink enough water yesterday while I was at work. I'm already on cup 3 today to try and remedy the problem.

Weight: 234.8lbs (10:28am)

To put that in perspective, about a week and a half ago, I weighed around 246-247lbs. So it's been around a 12lb drop in the last ten days.

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Three

Short post today. Keeping up with exercise and diet (I might be eating too many fruits/vegetables in relation to the protein...)

Weight: 236.4lbs (7:03am)

Going to keep the exercise routine the same for now. I'll up it if the weight doesn't continue to come off.

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day Two

Got the 141 pushups last night. My arms are still feeling it this morning.

Weight: 236.2lbs (10:43am)

I'm not really enjoying doing the pushups at night. Combating the day's fatigue and just general laziness post-work and post-tv just isn't working. I'm going to keep at it, but if I ever feel myself slipping, the pushups will get moved to the morning with the bike.

Goals for Today: 30 minutes on bike, 150 pushups, 3 x 20 hindu squats

My Experiment with Weight Loss: Day One

My parents have an exercise bike and a pair of 6.6lbs dumbells (Why are there 6.6lbs dumbells?)

Last night, I did 100 bicep curls (both arms) with the dumbells in two minutes before doing the pushups. I got to 59 before my arms told me to fuck off. I think this also had to do with the fact that I started this as I was feeling sleepy, so I'm going to start earlier tonight.

My weight at 9:03am this morning: 238.2lbs

This morning, I ate 3 strips of bacon and an egg. Probably not the best breakfast, but it's better than what I was eating (pop tarts).

Immediately after eating, I moved the exercise bike from the basement (where my dad smokes) into my room. It's a Weslo Pursuit E25. I'm fairly sure that it's pretty cheap. The seat is uncomfortable, and the highest resistance doesn't feel all that high in comparison to other bikes, but it'll serve for the time being. After fidgeting around on the seat and trying the different resistances for about twenty minutes, I did ten good minutes on the thing. I got 3.6 miles at the highest resistance and was drenched by the time I stopped. Knees felt fine, so I'm going to use this and walks for cardio.

I tried doing hindu squats this morning. The motion's a little funky the first few times, but I ended up getting 2 sets of 20.

Tonight when I get back from work, I'm going to go ahead and do the 141 pushups (base 100, plus the 41 I missed from yesterday). This might be post-Berto's fight (which I think starts right as I'll be getting home).

Goals for tomorrow: 30 minutes on the bike, 150 pushups, 3x20 hindu squats.
