Day 26
Exercise

Breakfast
green lemonade
Lunch
green salad from the cafeteria salad bar
Dinner
dehydrated Kale Chips
the food was sparse today as I am out of everything in preparation to spend the rest of the week with the folks recouping from my surgery.

Eating
Breakfast/Snack

Day 24
Wow Day 24 almost slipped away without a blog post. I had so much to say too...well, maybe not.
I was a bit bummed earlier. I was making you guys a video blog entry tonight showing my green lemonade construction/juicing process but the dinky little memory card on my camera ran out of space. Perhaps next time.
(sorta)Exercise
As I mentioned the other day I was forced to a walking pace today in preparation for my health screening in the morning. So, no pun intended, no great strides to report today.

Monday Weigh-In, Feb 23
It is Monday again so it is back to the scales to see what the lords of mass and gravity have to say. Today was pretty good; my wild streak of a pound-per-day loss is now officially over.
I did, however, lose another 4 pounds this week. That brings my total up or down depending on how you are counting to 32 lbs in 35 days. Being the geek that I am that means I've lost approximately 10.1% of my body weight in a month. Wowzers!
Below you will find my weekly numbers. Bear in mind that these are skewed with me being fully clothed in jeans and a t-shirt with only my shoes and socks off. That includes all the normal stuff I have in my pockets as well.

Day 23
Today is weigh-in Monday. I have the results on a separate post here.
Exercise
It was another day of treadmill excellence at the YMCA. I got my 2.5 miles complete in my allotted 30 minute window. I hate to push the run length much more with the warm up and cool downs included over the lunch hour so I may have to start increasing the pace next week. (assuming that I can maintain my current level)
Tomorrow I will have to reign it in because Wednesday morning I have a health screening at work and they say no vigorous exercise for 24 hours before hand. Not that I had any real baseline numbers to go from other than blood pressure and resting heart rate but I am curious to see what the bloodwork comes up as after being raw this month. I know my resting heart rate has dropped at least 10 bpm in the last month.
