Day 21 - May 24, 2013

Weight: 244.6 lbs

What the deuce?  That's a 2.4 lb swing since yesterday.  I am very surprised (positively).  When I began adding complex carbs in, my thought was that in case a certain percentage of weight loss was water, I wanted to get that gain out of the way (no tears later). I also wanted to max out the glucose in my muscles and liver, which comes with a certain degree of water. Turns out since I started adding in complex carbs I've lost weight, and today was a substantial loss.

Breakfast was familiar: oatmeal, sausage, egg and tomato juice. I had lunch with my wife at Buffalo Wild Wings.  The lunch special comes with 8 wings (I ate 4, based on my restaurant theory), and I upgraded the fries to a salad with blue cheese dressing.

It was back to the gym again today.  I did some sparring in boxing class today.  I did some face punching and some face punching avoidance for cardio.  By the time I got home, my wife was hungry and waiting.  So I didn't have time for my post workout meal: chocolate milk.  I downed a banana and the remnants of my son's peanut butter and jelly sandwich on wheat.  Dinner soon followed.  Sound familiar: brown rice and jambalaya.  Dessert was watermelon and almonds.  Hopefully, the scale continues to move in the right direction.
