26.5% Fat, 52.5% Water. How exciting. As you can see, I'm .5% less water than normal which can account for about 1.25lbs of my weight loss. Even after that, I definitely lost some weight yesterday. 4 miles on the treadmill at 3-5% incline and 4.5-5.5 MPH + 85 Minutes on the stationary bike. 1750 Calories Burned. A new personal record.
Yesterday night, Stacy felt I was getting too obsessed with working out. She was under the impression that I was running exclusively and not spending much time on other machines. She was worried I would injure myself from working too hard too soon. It was a valid concern considering my personality.
Fortunately, that same obsession has kept me reading on the internet to understand each little ache I may feel and be sure to give that area enough rest, while still allowing a tough work-out. I have no intention of working out less than 500-700 calories each day, hopefully reducing my body fat by about 1 pound per week.
Stacy also mentioned that I won't understand my results fully if I don't log what I eat. Once again a valid point. I know I've been cautious this month about what goes into my body, but in order to be VERY good, I need to know what my current standing is within 50 calories or so. I told her I would start logging on June 1st, but she convinced me that there's no need to wait. I'm starting to log all food today.
