This morning I was at 183 pounds, We will see what today’s food will do to tomorrows weight. Needless to say I ate 2324 calories. And a lot of the food was crap.
See the following:
Veg Juice as usual
2 Salmon cups
1Apple
1 Protein drink
2 stacks of celery
10 Almonds
Squid soup
Now for the crap:
2 dounuts at work
peanut butter sandwich – as a snack
Trail Mix – alot of sugar in dried fruit
The last 3 items calorie count is around 1400. It is easy to add to your calorie count for a day before you even know it.
I write down every thing that I eat. This is the only way that I can really know what calories that I am eating. Keeping food logs and even a training log will let me know where I am going in my quest to building a healthy body.
Keeping a weight lifting log will help you see how stronger that you are getting. I will take the amount of weight that I lift given any exercise that I do, take the that times the number of repetitions that I lift it and I will have a total amount of weight I lifted for that exercise. I can then do this for every exercise I do and I will have my total weight lifted for that given training session.
Doing this for today’s lift, I lifted a total of 5000 pounds. I am not really getting into it very heavy or a lot of reps yet. But the number helps me to stay buzzed about staying motivated to keep this change up.
