OMAD? (One Meal A Day)
Blood sugar 99 mg/dL
Yesterday the planned date night to the Cheesecake Factory (because we had $50 in gift certificates) got changed and we went to another restaurant called the "Yard House" instead. I had an excellent Ribeye steak and broccoli. 'Carbwise' I was still under 100 carbs, but, calorie-wise I was over 2500. The only reason why I think I only gained 1 pound is that I spent 4 hours cleaning out my parents garage and lifting a LOT of heavy stuff :)
I'm posting a picture of my body fat percentage according to my scale. Do I think it is correct? Of course not.
These scales are notoriously off (results were off by up to 21 percent), however, 20% of 10 is still only 2 so 12% body fat is still low.
This brings me to my real point: "Why am I trying to lose any weight at all?". Do I really want to have a 5 percent body fat? I'm a 50 year old computer programmer, what am I really trying to do here? :)
All I really care about is lifting heavy weights and watching my body slowly turn into the manly body I always wanted. However, MORE IMPORTANTLY I don't EVER want to get fat again. This is why I try to keep my 'scale weight' in the 160s. This has proved to be challenging...
Gonna try to eat One Meal A Day today (more steak!) and hit the weights and also do a run. On Monday I start my usual 5 day 'no solid food' fast.
😎 Life is Good! Have a great day everyone!
