Yesterday I really let the calorie intake go out of control. My appetite was really big, possibly also due to all that exercise but the effects of just one day are probably not going to be that big. I just hope this out-of-the-ordinary appetite was an exception :). I think the only reason the weight hasn't gone up was because of differences in timing of going to the bathroom between yesterday and today, but let's weight for tomorrow. :)

Inaccurate body fat percentage from body composition scale: 7.5 % (although inaccurate, the rise in body fat from yesterday is probably correct).

Inaccurate waist measurement across navel: 79.4 cm (this is great!). I'm guessing that all those abs along with the other exercise, are really making a difference.

Today is day 12 on the Ab Challenge. That means rest day. I completed the weight training cycle, reaching the final day and it's now been 117 hours (almost 5 days) since I last finished the first "pecs and triceps" routine. It was 24 hours more than it could have been because I skipped exercise the day before yesterday (aside from doing the abs), and I think that 117 hours is more than enough rest since that specific pecs and triceps routine involves calisthenics only. So I'm doing that routine again today. Depending on the results, I might try to either increase or decrease the rest period for that routine :)

edit: Those weighed lunges yesterday really murdered my glutes! I can feel them as I walk today lol.

127.6 lb Lost so far: 16.5 lb.    Still to go: 4.2 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
