Assessment
Days 23-26 (Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon) - I'm slowly jogging to the end of this challenge. In truth, I thought today, Monday, was the last day. Heck, I might've lost count somewhere along the way. But I'll give it one more day.
Some good things - a new coaching client, time with Kristi and the kids, took care of school supplies, I played basketball for the first time in two years, even if it was only in my driveway with my son Riker, saw 'The Gift' on Friday night - which was so-so - everything in it was good, but it was ultimately unsatisfying at the end. And we finally finished all ten seasons of Friends on Netflix. Add to that that I stayed true to my diet (except for a McDonald's dipped cone today), and have continued with my Miracle Mornings, I have to say I'm doing OK.
Since I am such a last minute guy, I wonder how much I'll get done between now and midnight tomorrow?
A Quick Look at my Goals Breakout
Weight, Food, Workouts
Day 1 starting weight - 216.0 - two bratwurst, one piece pepperoni pizza, one Monster, Iced Tea, small lemonade, 2 puddings, small handful of Doritos. It adds up. The Morning Miracle stretching & Back Exercises for 15 (heretofore referred to as TMMsbe15).
Day 2-4 (today) weight - 216.0 up to 221.0, back down to 220. Bad eating, no TMMsbe15, no working out.
Day 5 - 220.0 - two King Soopers Fried Chicken Breasts, large Coldstone Creamery Ice Cream, Popcorn, Junior Mints, loaded potato burrito and soft taco from Taco Bell, no TMM, no workout.
Day 6 - 222 - steak, Butterfinger, something else bad. TMM workout, but no major workout.
Day 7 - 220 - steak, popcorn, Junior Mints, butterfinger cups, TMM workout, but no major workout
Day 8 - 218.8 - two bratwurst, 1/3 Costco chicken. TMM workout, but no major workout.
Day 9 & 10 - 216.8, 217.2 - two KFC chicken breasts, 1 double butterfingers, 2 loaded potato burritos on Day 9, Day 10 just the Barbecue, and then some Junior Mints and a couple Butterfinger cups at the movie. No popcorn, which I count as a victory.
Day 11, 12, 13 - off on Day 11, on on 12 & 13. Got back up to 220.8, then down to 216.8, then an adjustment, I guess, this morning. Haven't worked out, other than my stretches for the Morning Miracle, this entire challenge.
Day 14 - 218.8 two King Soopers Chicken Breasts, two, yep TWO, double size Butterfingers.
Day 15 - 217.2 two King Soopers Chicken Breast, three chocolate chip cookies, a little popcorn, one brownie, 4 tiny donuts, 1 riblet, 2 potato chips, 2 chocolate pretzels. Weird day.
Day 16 - 18 - does it even matter? I was good, I was bad, and sometimes it got ugly. Yesterday I starved myself so I could have a shake and popcorn at Mission Impossible.
Day 19 - 217.8 - two fried chicken breasts, one bbq'd hot dog (no bun or condiments), two bites of bbq'd chicken (no sauce)
Day 20 - 217.0 - two bratwurst, one chicken breast, not fried, 5 tortilla chips.
Day 21 - 216.6 - two bratwurst, one chicken breast, not fried, 15-20 tortilla chips, a little Atkins approved Cool Whip, and one tator tot.
Day 22 - 215.2 - one brat, two King Soopers Fried Chicken Breasts, some chips, cool whip, and two bites of grilled chicken breast.
Day 23 - Today - 214.4 - chicken, cool whip, steak, bratwurst, bacon, eggs, all good Atkins-approved stuff, other than the afore-mentioned dipped cone, and a couple snack packs of Pringles.
Day 27 - Today - 214.0
