Thursday, May 25, 2017 – Day 25
I’m pissed.  I have a 5% weight loss right now and there’s a guy at 7.96% loss.  I should have delayed my “weight loss attack” by 1 week.  Here’s what I did:  I got home from Norway on 4/22 and weighed 230.  On 4/27 OTF weighed me and I weighed 224.6!!!!   That’s basically 6 lbs loss I didn’t get credit for. I have 14 days to finish this thing and and I’m to finish strong.  Aikido in the morning and burned 170 calories and OTF in the evening and burned 869 calories.

I had 5 meals each in the 480 calorie range, although I ran out of time to eat breakfast and was around 250 calories.
For the day I burned 2,939 calories.
I took in 2,078 calories.
The net deficit was 861 calories.

Aikido in the evening and burned 420 calories.  Super hard class, required tons of empty minded concentration – if that makes any sense at all.  Got to work out with some hammers, the amount of power they generate is mind boggling to me!

For the day I burned 2,893 calories.
I took in 2,391 calories.

This is a documentation of day 23 of 39 (I update the morning after a day is complete)

Tuesday, May 23, 2017 – Day 23
Aikido in the evening and burned 579 calories.  After having stem cells injected into my knees, my knees hurt at about 6 on the pain scale.  We also did an interesting exercise to gauge fitness on the mat specifically for Aikido.  1 repetition was attack, get a technique applied to you and then fall.  The idea was to do that 8 times in 30 seconds or less, I did it in 32 seconds.  Cool concept but out of my wheelhouse – at my skill level that feels way too high risk to do again.  I have to safely get my 50 year old, 6′ 2″, 215 pound body 12′ round trip on every fall – too many things can go wrong if I push hard enough to make the time standard.  Yet another example of my thought process change as I age.  Definitely getting wiser – young Z would dive in first and then figure it out on the way.  Older Z is rarely where he is, most of the time he’s in “…if I do this now, how will my body feel 5 years from now…” mode.  I liked the push into my discomfort zone though.  My body is very sore – my legs are KILLING me – like after having done AT intervals on the bike.

I had 5 meals each in the 480 calorie range.
For the day I burned 3,039 calories.
I took in 2,454 calories.
The net deficit was 585 calories.
I slept 7:50  In my own bed and took Sleep Works and it was 4:04 of deep sleep!
I drank 105 oz of water.
Bottom line – Today was a win.  Because I’m alive and can move.

Monday, May 22, 2017 – Day 22
OTF in the morning and burned 832 calories.  Had to skip Aikido to go to the kids school awards ceremony.  While I like to go, we had to sit through 2 ceremonies (different grades) with identical stuff.  I tuned out and played online chess.

Due to being trapped inside the Greensboro Aquatic Center the whole weekend I wasn’t able to prepare any food on Sunday.  When we got home I found the outside refrigerator open so everything in there went bad.  I ended up having a shake for breakfast.  But due to no food I ended up having a bar after OTF and promptly bonked 30 minutes later.  Luckily my Neeley’s Mealies came in and I had a good meal.
I had 4 meals each in the 480 calorie range.  I ended the day 300 calories in deficit so I ate some Halo Top – good stuff 🙂
For the day I burned 3,118 calories.
I took in 2,221 calories.
The net deficit was 897 calories.
I slept 5:58
I drank 106 oz of water.
Bottom line – Today was a big win b/c I felt like I wandered off and then back on to the reservation.
