    Weigh in week: 2/2 (Week 5)
    Weigh in day: Friday
    Previous Week's weight: 173
    Today’s Weight: 173

    I guess I should be grateful because on Tuesday I was back up to 175 again but this feels like a bummer. I know I’ve been slacking and eating mini cupcakes and making brownies so I guess I need to refocus this month and start making healthier choices again. I probably have shoulder surgery in my near future because my left arm is completely useless so I might as well do what I can while I can!

    February 2
    Exercised?: Yes. Walked 6km in 45 mins (hills).
    Calories?: Yes
    Tracked?: Yes

    Good walk late today. Still fast.

    Wanted to get prescription inserts for my FPV goggles, but my optometrists script is incomplete (uncorrectable left eye - legally blind in that eye, so no script for left and no PD measurement). Will need to book an eye test to get a new (complete) script. As I am long-sighted, stock negative diopters will not work. I need +2.75 for distance and +4.25 for reading (for my right eye). There is wonky astigmatism in there too.




    Daily Strength challenge

    Challenge for February 02 is sit-ups or crunches (abs day - be sure to use a mat or towel for cushioning -
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzqLFXKOC8Q
    )

    2 sets
    • First set till the point where you can do no more, wait 2 mins
    • Second set of 50% of the number you did in the first set (half)

    The reason for only 2 sets for this exercise is that it ideally should be balanced with back strengthening exercises (which plank variants provide).

    I don't have access to my own scale at my parent's house.Plus my mother is cooking and baking all my favorite foods here.Learning to make few new desserts/dishes. Thus finding it difficult to control but still trying.I will return home in Detroit next Friday or Saturday.Enjoying my stay here definitely.Thanks.

    Disappointed with a gain, I have had a few indulgences this week food wise but I've been doing more strength workouts and getting plenty of walking in. Still, I've heard that a gain following strength work isn't uncommon. I have lost an inch off my waist though!

    @GoBlue1981 please use my weigh in from last week for this week. I wasn't able to weigh in on Monday bc I was in Brooklyn for my finance's grandmother's funeral.

    Exercised?: Yes. Walked 6km in 46 mins (hills).
    Calories?: Yes
    Tracked?: Yes

    Good walk very late today (after taking daughter to skating). Dark when I finally got home (but still light enough to see).




    Daily Strength challenge

    Challenge for February 03 is door frame rows (
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8NzhNe9Res
    )

    3 sets
    • First set till the point where you can do no more, wait 2 mins
    • Second set of 50% of the number you did in the first set (half)
    • Third set

    The reason for this exercise is push ups and dips work primarily the triceps (pushing). This exercise balances the others by working the biceps (pulling).
