Feb 22
Calories: yes
Tracking: yes
Exercise: yes, 35 min cardio/weight lifting
Today was rough. Hungry a lot, barely dragged my exhausted self to the gym, and haven't seen the scale move down since Monday. Logically, I know it's the weight lifting. With my calorie deficit, brutally honest logging, and work outs, there is no way but down. I just have to wait it out, but I'm getting impatient!
On a happy note, my arms are showing some definition. This is probably the most muscle I've had on my arms in my entire life.2 -

Keep doing the right things @eevang building more muscle helps you burn more calories so that’s a perk...even if it’s slightly offset by definitely being more hungry! The scale will catch up, probably in an obnoxious whoosh

@GoBlue1981. Great result for the week. Looks like things are finally starting to move again.

February 25
Exercised?: Yes. Over 10,000 steps helping with drone racing.
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
FPV Drone Race. Did better than expected, made semi-finals of my division. Finished all races except one. For all the flights I only broke 1 propeller and 1 antenna.
Also helped a brand new pilot get into the air for the first time with FPV goggles (he was about my age). It is very disorienting to fly first time, but he did fine.
Also posted Week 3 results and set up registrations for March.
Daily Strength challenge
Challenge for February 25 is side planks. ()
2 sets- First set 15s, 30s each side, wait 2 mins
- Second set 15s, 30s each side.
