Day 22: Weigh-in 175.4
If you'll notice, there is no weigh-in for Day 21. I was unable to get a clear number yesterday, so it will go unrecorded. I'm not sure if it was the party the night before, or the fact that my 'friend' came, but when I woke up I weighed 188.6. My stomach wasn't sitting right with me all day yesterday though, and as I used the restroom a few more times it jumped around from 175 to 177. This morning I was relieved to see it had come back down to normal, but I'm still frustrated that I seem to have hit a wall.
I hit the gym today for the first time since the session with my trainer. I decided to do a blend of my usual routine and the one he had taken me through. I started with a brisk walk/jog for half a mile then hopped off and went to the free weight area. One of the things he had me do was a plank for as long as I could. On Thursday I went for 1 minute 28 seconds, and today I pulled off 1:35. I did about 4 more exercises he had run me through, including the one with the medicine ball. I didn't want to duplicate everything he had me do because I wanted to be able to make it back in the gym this week, but I did throw in a few machines using heavier weights than I usually do. I finished up with another half mile on the treadmill. The whole workout took a little less than an hour, but I came away feeling more productive than I usually do.
I went grocery shopping after I left the gym. I really only meant to get milk, cereal, and dog food but came out with much more, as will happen when you go shopping hungry. Lunch ended up being a turkey sandwich with nothing on it, a snack bag of baked ruffles, and a tall glass of OJ. Dinner will either be a Lean Cuisine or a big salad.
