Day 36 - June 8, 2013

Weight:           238.2 lbs.
Body Fat %:     35%
Composition:    83 lbs fat / 155.2 lbs. lean body mass
H20 %:            47%  (112 lbs )

Today's lesson learned was about what happens if you don't eat.  I didn't have any solid foods yesterday.  I limited myself to liquids I though my stomach could hold onto or would soothe my tummy.  I lost a lot of water as well.  The result was a quick weight loss, but increase in body fat % and decrease in H20%.  I'm trying to re-hydrate today. I'll see what the results were tomorrow.

In regards to the mystery of who/what was the cause of yesterday's food poisoning, I top two suspects are the plain yogurt that I was trying to finish off in my morning shake yesterday and the protein bar from the night before.  The yogurt had been sitting around the fridge for a while, but still hadn't past its expiration date.  The protein bar had previously been left in the hot car.  Those are the only two thing out of the norm I consumed yesterday.

It's going to be a busy day. It's going to be about 115 today, and we have an early kiddie birthday party to attend.  The hosts did a good job of keeping everything in the shade or out of the son.  I did a good job of keep everything out of my mouth.  By the end I'd only had a cheddar brat dog, a fork full of pasta salad, 2 bites of birthday cupcake, a slice of grilled watermelon and a few calorie free beverages.

I then had a long nap, which I followed up with a mid-afternoon snack.

Day 35 - June 7, 2013

Weight:             239.8 lbs.
Body Fat %:     33.5%
Composition:    80.3 lbs fat / 159.5 lbs. lean body mass
H20 %:            47.5%  (114 lbs )


It's really hot this morning.  I was feeling a little queasy and dehydrated when I woke up.  I decided to water up and see how the day would go.

Looking at the scale, I think getting 8 hrs of sleep is a bigger factor than working out.  It's like a double bonus when I can successfully do both.

My son and I usually meet my wife for lunch on Fridays, but my tummy felt horrible.  Cane's sent me a thing for a free lemonade.  So we went there for lunch, as my son really wanted to go and was bugging me.  I wound up only drinking my lemonade, and watching my wife and son eat chicken strips, fries and toast.  I chased my non-refillable lemonade with a Sprite, hoping the bubbles would make my tummy feel better. What a day!  All I had for the rest of the day was water and ginger ale.

Mid-morning on was a blur. I felt horrible being anything but horizontal.

Update: my temperature is 100.5 degrees. Hope I feel better tomorrow.  Outside it's 108 degrees.
