Good morning!
Happy Sunday!
Today is gonna be a nice and fun day.
A good friend came over, we went for a nice, long walk, we had the little lunch buffet, and Daughter made Krappy Patties for dinner.
All foods were registered, even a couple of licorice and a small piece of cake. It's all good. I came out of the day with a 400 calorie deficit.
So, I was hoping that nothing would make me retain water, and that I would see a nice little weight drop again today.
I was wrong. I'm up 1.2 kilos! Damn. :)
It's ok, though. My body fat weight is lower than it has been in for a couple of weeks, and I can see the general trends of things turning around to the better.
I just need to keep going and doing good, and things will be just fine.
...
Today I will have trouble reaching my minimum calorie intake, unless I eat junk. I don't want to eat junk.
For that very reason, I am taking a slow day. No morning walk.
I'm gonna rehearse with the band, and that will be relatively active, so that is all that I'll do.
It's so weird to NOT have to exercise.
I've had a huge calorie burn all week, compared to most weeks, averaging at 3300 per day, so a slow day is perfectly in order. At the same time, since I don't think I will get even close to my minimum calorie intake, it's important that I do NOT go crazy exercising. What I will naturally be doing though the day is just fine.
I really like NOT having the pressure of exercise sitting on my shoulders, but it is also weird. I'm so used to having to do a LOT - especially if I want to lose a little fat - and this seems so counter productive. It's not, though. There's method to the madness. This is entirely to ensure that I won't lose muscle.
I will ride the edge of my minimum calorie allowance, based on my calorie burn today, and just barely keep up with food. Of course, I will ensure that I still get my protein, fat and fiber. :)
...
I'm still feeling fine in regards to work.
I am thinking a LOT about how to best structure a future setup in the weight loss business.
How do I attract customers? Do I set up (rent) an office space? Should it all take place at the gym, and if so - is that possible? Now is the time where I can prepare myself to get going. What is the minimum requirements (investments) I can do? What are the add-ons that I can offer people to get moving?
There are so many things I need to do for it.
I know I will find my grip on things, but there is a lot I need to structure. And with my head and focus somewhat in shambles, it's hard to do.
I do feel better though. I think getting the news makes me more ready to move on.
...
Today, I'm thankful for: - Playing with the band! - Wife! - The outlook to a great life! - Morning coffee! - Celebrating Daughter's b-day!
Life is good!
