Daily Update Jan-28-2009

Today I slept in an extra hour.  I was really tired last night and did get a chance to post.

I have been thinking about my exercise and eating plan.  I believe I need to increase my activity level significantly.  Most of the exercises I am doing I have been doing for a while now and I think my metabolism has adapted to them so that I don’t burn as many calories as I used to.

My plans going forward

• Pay attention to my weight and track my eating habits so that I can adjust down my intake and up my output.
• Attempt to  increase my muscle mass so that I burn more calories.  Need to consume a little more protein
• Investigate interval training to increase my exercise effectiveness

So here are my statistics as of this morning

• 234.5 lbs,
• 28.8% body fat
• 1.9% water this morning.

This means I have ~168 lbs of lean muscle and about ~67 lbs of fat I can loose.  My goal for now remains at 200lbs before then end of 2009.

I have been using Balance Log this week to track my food.

I did remember to bring a snack today:

• Pear
• Almonds
