Day 5 of a planned 5 day ‘no solid food’ fast
Blood sugar 90 mg/dL

The 🌧 rain finally stopped 👍🏾

Yesterday I was able to get to the 🏋🏾 gym. My lifting strength was greatly diminished, because this was the first time in over a month where I went 4 full days without solid food AND I did some running.

But, still, it is nice to see the scale move…

I plan to run 5 miles a day for the next 3 days and hit the gym again on Saturday. I will have eaten the night before (tonight), but, there is no way my glycogen levels will be built up, so my weight lifting will still be greatly reduced. There is a reason you see the big guys on this site pounding the carbs all the time, I-need-carbs-to-lift-heavy. But, now is a time for me to shed fat. My weight trendline has been pointing up for nearly 3 months, this is *not* what I want if I ever want to see my abs 😊

😎 Life is Good! Have a great day everyone!
