18oz Ribeye
A1 (1Tbsp)
2Tbsp Sugar free peanut butter
Coffee w/ HC&Splenda

Workout-
Off day

Nothing really to report. I went to see Pineapple Express and it was ok I guess. I really wasn't paying attention and thought I was going to see Tropical Thunder. It had it's funny parts, but was a little cheesy.

I am going to pretend I didn't weigh in this morning...

Well so I decided to take a peek this morning... I was up to 331. No one to blame this on but me for my couple of cheats. I am focusing on the positive though. I am back in the gym. I am sore. I am playing my Wii daily. =)

As far as food went yesterday:
Breakfast-
5 sausage links
LC Ketchup
Starbucks HC&Splenda

Lunch-
Italian sausage
LC Ketchup
2 1/3lb Burgers

Dinner-
3 1/3lb burgers
LC Ketchup
LC Cheesecake
2 Italian Sausages

Workout-
Chest workout
3 sets dumbell bench presses (12@40, 10@45, 8@50)
3 sets machine independant arm training incline bench press (12@45 per arm, 3 times)
3 sets machine independant arm training decline bench press (12@45 per arm, 10@50 per arm two times)

I go to New York tomorrow. Getting pretty excited. When I get back I am going to quit Starbucks and Diet Drink cold turkey for a minimum of two weeks, and get as close to zero carbs as possible.

Again and Again...

Well I cheated and went to the gym. I doubt they cancel out. At least I am going to be honest though. I have no reason, but last night I was crazy hungry. My meals yesterday were:

Breakfast-
2 sausage patties

Lunch-
Ribeye
Salad W/ BC

Dinner-
2 1/3lb Hamburger patties
2 Hot Dogs
2 Italian Sausages
1 piece of birthday cake

Workout- (45 minutes)
Arms (bi and triceps)
Abs

Ok... So I threw my sons birthday cake leftovers away after the cheat. I am really not too down in the dumps about it, but I need to be making some forward progress and this is clearly not the way.

Onwards and downwards. Not much more to add. I am looking forward to my New York trip, but I am already missing my wife since she is working all week on evenings.

Keeping on...

The day was ok. This morning I am .2 pounds lighter, but still above my low. Not much to report, just trying to get through the week and get to New York!

When we cheat...

Well bad news.. This weekend I had 1 bite of potato chips, one bite of birthday cake, and two bites of ice cream. In my mind any cheats while on low carb are huge cheats. It isn't a diet that allows for many mistakes. Especially in my case where I have been having such a difficult time.

Anyway, out with the old and in with the new. I did go and workout on Friday which is a good habit to start getting myself back into. I worked out my chest and legs. I was very sore for the two year old birthday party.



Which is where I had all the opportunity to cheat. I didn't have a full meal off but I nibbled. =/

On Sunday I was back on, and went to the Western and Southern Financial Masters and Womens Open. I took some nice pics because we were four rows back behind the players/umpire's chair.
I went to the mens double and single finals. The single's final was between Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic (who beat the current Wimbeldon Champ Nadal the day before). The doubles were a ton of fun. The current number 1 doubles team (Bryan brothers) played and excellent match. Anyway, it was the first tennis tourney I went to and I loved it.



Today I am back on the horse and hoping to finally lose some weight.
