Well I tried to load a picture of me in my workout clothes today and I guess my images even resized are just too large as the small box it allows cuts me down so you can only see my torso. Weird.

I got up tired and sore and yes light headed. Ate a big steak with some extra fat and stretched and stretched. It took a couple hours until I felt decent. I did a couple of my big tanks while I was resting to at least get some work done this morning. Fortunately those are pretty mindless to do.

I got dressed up in the closest things I had to work out clothes and dragged myself to the gym. Forgot to bring water I will not do that again. The water fountain water was horrible when I finally found it.

Did my glutes both inside and outside machine, 10 each in groups of 3 twice then went back to do them when I was done with the other machines I tried. I did the leg press with no weight only 5 times each in the same 3 series. my knee was a little tweeked this morning so I did not push. I have a bad knee that acts up so I have to be careful on that one. and I used the weight bar for balance and did 5 squats in a series of 3 times. I would have liked to try for more but I was still sore from 2 days ago. This one is very difficult for me to do, so it will take time. At least holding on to the bar when I squat I have more control and don't lose my balance.

Then I tried some standing pedal thing. Depending on how I stood on it, it would work my front muscles more or my rear ones. I set it at endurance level and worked the rear more. that one kicked me in the butt well.

I went and played with the little weights again to do the side lifts I don't know what it is called maybe the butterfly and definitely 12.5 is my max and I can not manage to get my arms straight. This is something I work on the total gym at and that one is hard! so while I am clueless to my calorie burn I am counting it at 160 because the one exercise was cardio. My body feels like it was 400! LOL

Even though I have been around 500 to 600 calories under my maintenance level that water weight is sticking around. 128.6 for two days. 1 1/2 pound gain from my 127 and today or tomarrow by my tracking I should hit 126. I know I ate food that I should not have for my food sensitivities, but it was so minor. Cucumbers in mayo and vinegar and coffee with heavy cream. Well I did splurge and have eggs too. They did not seem to bother me.

Have to see how this week goes. I am still so bloated I did not want to show off my tummy anyways. It was nice for a few days to see how much better that area was looking before the bloat. I will just keep working on things and it will eventually come together and surprise me!
