Day 2 of a planned 5 day Fat Bomb Week

Blood sugar 100 mg/dL

👎🏾 I 'stress ate' a bag of potato chips yesterday. I am sure the 1 lb gain is from the massive sodium, but, normally I NEVER break a fast. However, because I am experimenting with eating fat bombs this week, technically I was NOT on a 'no solid food fast', so I gave myself permission to eat. The good news is that the situation that triggered me to 'stress eat' is looking a lot better...

👎🏾 I stuck to having only 2 fats bombs in the afternoon, but broke down and had an unscheduled 🥛 protein drink later in the day due to the 'stressful situation' covered above. So, the goal of cutting the protein intake was NOT achieved. Today will be the real test...

🏋🏾 Today is a gym day. I think my body looks GREAT in the mirror. Weightlifting rocks. I can honestly say I am looking forward to going to the gym today. If my 'program' were only about 'weight loss' I think I would have gotten 'exhausted' by now and would definitely 'take a break'.

So, I TOTALLY understand why I see people doing that all the time. Weight training (as opposed to aerobic exercise) is a different 'beast'. For me, it is a never ending journey to lift heavier and heaver weights to 'build' my body.

Have a great day everyone!

Sure hope the stressful situation is settled - makes it so hard not to nibble on something - can't wait to see the results from you new experiment - I love weights too but not in the same way - you are a force of nature with your exercise!

Careful on Heavy lifting. Make sure you work on “form” first & then the weight will follow. I have seen to many friends injure themselves due to heavy training vs. quality training.

@srossca - Yes! Safety first. I am very careful with form. I also use the "Smith Machine" that a lot of people hate but I find is safer. Also, I have only been increasing every month.

The Smith Machine is deceiving when it comes to Squats & Weight amounts. Try only a Regular Barbell & it will provide a better exercise. Again, start light.

@chrisw77 - I actually did do my squats and deadlifts without it on Saturday (because someone was using it). I agree there is a difference, but I enjoy the 'guidance' it provides. I do understand why people don't like it, but, I am also the guy with a weight belt and gloves :)
