euheide's Journal, 24 March 2014

Not the lowest, but still among the lowest recent weigh ins :

Inaccurate body fat percentage from body composition scale: 9.3% (high, within average)

Inaccurate waist measurement around navel: 80.3 cm (I think this is probably the lowest waist reading so far but it's inaccurate though I'm still very satisfied with it :)

Blood pressure and heart rate before getting up: 105/71 - 61 bpm (more or less the usual)

Another day that I kept delaying logging until there was a pile of stuff to log lol.

I strongly believe that this very recent, and still not big change in both weight and waist has to do with my unprecedented consistency in daily calisthenics and indoor cycling. I'm still doing the daily calisthenics because, whenever I would get to 2 or 3 days in a row, I would miss a day and destroy the results I wanted to look at, to reach the conclusion of whether 24 hours is enough to recover or not (for me), on some exercises. So far, it's looking like it's barely enough. I see progress on some days and, on others I'm maintaining. This probably means that some more hours of recovery wouldn't hurt. And this varies according to the intensity of the exercises... Sometimes, there also seems to be a fatigue accumulation though, some days, a lot of energy seems to come out of nowhere to confuse me. :)

edit: Not an hour ago, I ate like I haven't eaten in a long time. I'm almost bursting right now. The culprit is grilled chicken which I missed eating so I went for some take-away today heheh. I added some home cooked rice (too much is more like it because, for too much chicken, you need too much rice lol). And, despite being already feeling like a full barrel afterwards, I still ate a sizable amount of grapes. Now I know how the python feels in the Amazon, after swallowing an entire crocodile :)

I should have subtracted the weight of the chicken bones after eating since all the entries for grilled chicken are with bone removed. I'll just cut the weight in half and hope that represents the missing bones lol.

I hope all these edits I'm making don't appear in the notifications :P Anyway, I'm a little unsure about yesterday's total calories since I had a somewhat confused list written down...

lol Calyn! :) Maybe! I'm really not sure heheh. I think that I'll still cry a little (figuratively speaking heheh) when I say goodbye to the last bits ;)

Good to see you are human too euheide ;-) fried chicken and rice is a way better thing to overeat on than chocolate and ice-cream like I sometimes do! Great work on the regular exercise!!!

Thanks very much for the compliment Njashka! You have to start thinking about chicken when sweets come to mind! heheheh. I guarantee you that, after eating all the chicken, you won't wish for any sweets lol. Thanks! ;)

I've started overeating on fresh pineapple instead whenever I feel like sweets so going good so far;-) having grilled chicken breast for dinner though i's my girls favourite;-)

That's awesome! Fruit is the best substitute for sweets! It really works. :) I see you have another chicken enthusiast there heheheh. This is the end of my day today and I'm pretty sure I'll fall a sleep like a stone with my stomach like this lol :) See y'all tomorrow!

I had read recently that eating before going to bed would elevate your body temperature, making it more difficult to sleep. While I didn't have a particular difficulty falling a sleep in that "condition lol", I did feel warmer than usual in bed and even had to uncover myself for some time. :) It's interesting how our bodies work...

Just to make a correction to what I said njashka. I mistakenly wrote "fried" chicken. I also ate it "grilled" heheh. I always confusing "fried" with "grilled" :P
