Finally got to work out with my bro tonight. We did 30 minutes of the elliptical, 15 minutes of abs, and about 15 minutes of sauna. It's a good thing I did the elliptical, I don't think my legs would have held up for running on the treadmill. The machine said I burned about 350 calories. Even if I did that much, I'd be happy. I felt good today, and I had lots of energy.
As we were working out, my bro told me about another job he's getting. It sounds to me like it's a lot of hours, and of course, he probably will fall out soon. He does this, burns out quickly. He looks much better though, and maybe this will stick. But I won't expect him to keep it up. I will go with or without him, and if it takes finding someone else to go with for me to go, I'll do that.
So, as I started, I will continue.
Food today: So I didn't do bad at all. I had just dry oatmeal squares for breakfast. I had an avocado and turkey sandwich today for lunch. I had 2 hard boiled eggs before I went to the gym, and I just finished up a small bowl of Cheerios.
Workout: So I did half an hour of cardio, 15 minutes of abs, and sat in the sauna for about 15 minutes. No weights, I did those yesterday and I wanted to give myself a little break. I'll do weights tomorrow night if I get a chance.
Staying true to my goal, I still want to cut weight first. I want to loose fat, get skinny, then build muscle. I'm still just going to do weights for the fat loss. Now that I'm on the right track I might try a week of really cutting down the food and doing a lot of cardio, then possibly giving it a rest for a week. I'm curious to see how my body handles it. It might work, or I might find my body just goes into starve mode and puts the weight back on the next week.
Staying with the healthy way, if I reach a goal of loosing 2 lbs a week, that will be perfect. If I loose more than that, bonus. Well, lots of protein, and way less carbs.
