When all is going according to plan……do you smile or shudder?

I smile!! 

Today….the second morning since the refeed…..bodyweight was back down to .4kg from where it was the morning of (meaning before the meal) the refeed. That’s the fastest drop so far (although….to note….obviously I’m still heavier….by those .4kg!)……but I won’t “count it” as meaningful until Saturday’s weigh in. My theory, however….is that the sugar based (with fructose minimized….and grain and starch eliminated….dairy allowed) refeed will be the best thing for me….and that I will, if done right….be able to gain, lose, or maintain weight at will.

Today I was a bit tired….slept….”ok” (longer…..but lower quality). I tried to “snap out of it” by jogging to the gym instead of walking….and it helped. Along the way….I checked out two candidates for the restaurant of choice for Saturday night’s upcoming refeed. Not sure which one I’ll choose yet. I also bought about 17 grams of assorted white chocolates and nougat…..woohoo!!! I’ll bring that to the restaurant, too.

The workout was FANTASTIC!!! 8 minute jog……4 minute HIIT Tabata interval…..then middle back, triceps, biceps, 16 medium intensity minutes on the bike….and 8 minute jog home. I sure hope I’m not shredding muscle for energy….though there are no signs of that. The thing is….I’m just not sure where the energy is coming from!!! Something to ponder….and monitor.

Food tonight…..a bit more than my alloted portion….but a perfect mix of fat to lean. Raw beef, beef fat, beef marrow fat, and lamb…….total was 400 grams. I’m still pretty sure 350 calories per 100 grams is about right….though if anything that is probably 10-20 calories overstated.

Tomorrow….day off…..long walk and stairs only. Food….hopefully under 380 grams. Fingers crossed!!
