Ok, so, the assault sort of went on a hiatus for the last week. I say sort of because I was in Louisiana visiting the family, so I had no available gym. There, I have a treadmill and a yoga mat, so cardio and pushups are my only legitimate options. While I was there, from December 22-29, I did the following:
Dec. 23 - Walked 9 holes of golf (3,100 yards of just course yardage, probably more considering I hit the ball all over the place; call it 2.5 miles) with Dad and Ro
Dec. 24 - Walked 18 holes of golf with Dad and Ro (5 miles)
Dec. 25 - Walked 2.5 miles in the morning with Dad
Dec. 26 - Ran 4.5 miles on the treadmill (10 minute pace), followed by 5-7 minutes of abs
Dec. 27 - Walked 2.5 miles in the morning with Dad; walked 9 holes of golf with Dad and Ro (2.5 miles)
Dec. 28 - Walked 2.5 miles in the morning with Dad; walked 18 holes of golf with Dad and Ro and Haddox (5 miles)
Dec. 29 - Walked 9 holes of golf with Dad and Ro
Dec. 30-Jan. 2 - New Year's blur in Cleveland. Eating was kept under control, for the most part, but snacking did occur, as did intense boozing. Severe setback.
As you can see, there was little to no intense cardio for the last 10 days, but at least I was being active and getting out of the house. Generally, I kept my eating in check--a few cheats with pizza, sonic, fried chicken, but hey, it's the holidays!
This morning, I reluctantly stepped on the scale, and fortunately, was 190 still. I was about 188.6 the day I left for Louisiana, so the holidays definitely were a setback, but not gigantic. Today, I got right back on the horse though--bowl of cereal around 11am, fiber one bar around 2pm, and then hit the gym for chest, triceps, forearms and an 8 minute mile. Dinner was a restricted portion of TheWife's ricotta gnocchi with fra diavolo sauce (I had to, or else she would have been pissed watching me make an omelet while her gnocchi was sitting there) and a muscle milk protein shake. All in all, likely well under 2,000 calories for the day with a solid workout at the gym; 10 minutes of abs before bed and today will be in the books. Tomorrow, we'll do cereal again in the morning, perhaps a turkey sandwich and baby carrots for lunch, cardio in the afternoon, and then an omelet with tomatoes, onions and mushrooms in the evening. Baby steps, headed back in the right direction.
