after yesterday's big lunch I was so full that I didn't snack the rest of the day and wasn't even hungry for dinner. came home after a long day of work ate a banana chugged some black coffee with creatine and summoned the energy to hit the weights. had a great session and was able to add almost all my barbell push day exercises back into the mix without any of the elbow pain I had been dealing with in the weeks past. it felt so good to do flat, incline ,and decline bench with the barbell again and not just dumbells. ended up having to add extra plates on the decline and incline from what I had been doing prior to the Injury wohooo... finished the workout with a double scoop of protein powder to try and fix my macros for the day and went to bed without any extra snacking or getting called out again and between no dinner the workout and getting in over 18k steps for the day I actually ended the day in a slight deficit. I still slept like shit according to my garmin and my resting heart rate was up a full 11bpm from my normal bradycardia range of 47 now up to 58 but I'm sure once the stress goes back down a bit I'll be back to normal. today is a new day and it's my son's 6th birthday 🎂 he has requested flank steak and to go to the local orchard for homemade red raspberry soft serve ice cream hopefully the stars align and I get to enjoy a nice evening with him without getting called back out but I'm not holding my breath on that one. and im down a pound from yesterday too now that's just funny right there
