Official weigh-in is 271. Actually, it is exactly 270.7, but I rounded it up.
Today was a pretty great day, all around. It is Vanessa's birthday and she's 25 now. When we met she was only 19. That seems crazy and like it should be forever ago, but it doesn't feel like a long time. We had dinner with Dan, Sheena and Jeremy and it was awesome, even if our waiter wasn't so good.
I did 65 minutes on the Hell Machine today and I pushed myself a little bit harder and realized that I was actually kind of jogging. JOGGING. That is just a step below running. And I did it for a full 65 minutes. 5.5 miles. I burned 785 calories. That is intense. I'm kind of proud of myself. I also did some weights: mostly upper body, but some leg stuff as well.
Vanessa and I wandered around Home Goods and Target after dinner. It was a nice way to spend some time together and decompress. It was late, so Target was pretty empty and quiet. I really enjoy spending time with her, so I guess this whole marriage thing might work out.
Breakfast:
2 servings of plain old Cheerios with milk and a little Vanilla creamer
1 piece of Protein Plus toast (IT RETURNS) with butter and a little bit too much Raspberry jelly
1 banana
Lunch:
6 inch Turkey sub with mustard, provolone, lettuce, tomato and pickle
Large Strawberry Oasis smoothie with Protein Powder
Dinner:
SUSHI!
3 or 4 pieces of Spicy Crab Roll
3 or 4 pieces of Philly Roll
Most of the Special Maki 2 which had avocado, shrimp, tempura shrimp and crab
Small portion of General Tso's with White Rice
Dinner was so effing good. I could eat sushi every day.
See you tomorrow.

Hey Jay, it's Erin. We used to work at the Exchange together? Anyways.. I think it's awesome that you're doing this! I always tell myself that I'm going to eat better and work out more and blah blah blah, but I'll do it for about two months and give up. Especially when I move and the gym is too far...
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I went to this grocery store called Whole Foods yesterday with a friend and they had heaps of awesome health food stuff. Don't know if you'd be interested but thought I'd pass it on!
I know exactly what you mean about the down time with your wife. There are times when my husband (yes, I'm married!) and I have so much fun together and I just think "wow, this is totally working". It's really great :)
Keep trucking buddy, have fun!
65 minutes!?! 5.5 miles?!?!? THAT'S AWESOME!! Thanks for the inspiration today!!
ReplyDeleteHey Jay,
ReplyDeleteIt's Tom. Just read em' all. They aren't boring. I thought today's was A- The funniest because it's the most true. And B- congrats dude, you're doing really well. You need a picture of hell machine though. That would have gotten me through this cold nastiness thing.
Take note that I meant to put that on the Tuesday one...
