Weight:            244 lbs.
Body Fat %:     34.5%
Composition:    84 lbs fat  / 160 lbs. lean body mass
H20 %:            47.5%  (116 lbs )


The total fat analyses I've been doing lately screws with my mind.  The numbers bouncing around seems to motivate and then demotivate me .  Hopefully, in the big picture the numbers are trending in the right direction.  I'm wondering if I should stick to the everyday full analysis or return to once a week.  I'm going to continue the rest of the week, then evaluate if I want to continue with the dailies or make it weekly.

Breakfast: another shake.  I've been using plain yogurt, I think its sourness is negatively affecting the taste of the entire shake.  I had to grab lunch on the go, due to a lack of protein (meat) in the fridge.  I tried the Cobb salad from Wendy's, then the remainder of this morning's smoothie before hitting the gym.  Dinner was jambalaya and dessert was fruit and nuts.

The lesson I learned today is that if you are going to do mindless cardio, do it in the cardio theatre.  There's not better genre of movie to watch while doing cardio in the cardio theatre than a mindless action movie. Today was Tokyo Drift.  Loud exciting action sequences, just don't expect that any effort went into script writing.

The scale was not my friend today, but probably a good blast of truth and common sense.  Back on the grind without too much damage done.

I lifted weight for the first time since I started today.  It went fine, no DOMS so far.

Breakfast was a smoothie again.  There's a heart-healthy serving of cooked oatmeal in this smoothie.  I'm not sure how I felt about that.  Could use a little sweetening, but I don's want to add any artificial sweetener. Maybe I'll add honey next time.

Lunch was leftover wings from Buffalo Wild Wings with the celery and carrot sticks that came with them.  Instead of the blue cheese dressing, I dipped in hummus.   Dinner was reliable jambalaya and brown rice again.  Dessert was an orange and nuts.
