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.
