Percentage of Fat: 33.3%
Fat Mass Weight: 85.5 lbs

Determination is the Price of Success

I'm at work, in fact I will be on duty till Monday morning. Sometimes we have long shifts... as is the life of a fireman.

Week one is complete. I lost 6.75 pounds (-2.56%). I'm very excited.

Breakfast:
1/2-cup oatmeal, 1-tbsp sugar, 1-tbsp butter, walnuts, and 1-cup skim milk (540)

I chose lunch as my "free-meal". We went to one of my favorite Mexican food restaurants and admittedly... I didn't hold anything back. My meal included:
LOTS of chips and salsa, 6-oz chicken breast, 3-flour tortillas, 1.5-cups of Spanish rice, 1/3 avocado, some lettuce and tomato, and a large glass of UN-sweet tea.

The meal wouldn't have been too extreme, had it not been for the excessive amount of chips. I "felt" full for several hours.... almost to the point of being uncomfortable for the first 20-minutes after eating.

Later in the evening I rode the stationary bike for 30-minutes. Level 4 of 16. The read out showed 7.3 miles and 14.5 mph. Later I walked for 31-minutes. Average pace was 17:03 min/mile. The session was completed with an upper-body workout:
3 x 10 wrist curl 25#
3 x 10 reverse wrist curl 8#
3 x 10 alternate bicep curl 15#
3 x 10 seated bicep curl - bar #10
3 x 10 lying triceps curl 15#
3 x 10 standing triceps curl - bar 10#
3 x 10 dumbbell press 15#
3 x 10 prone deltoid press 5#

Dinner was an unexpected tasty treat of food I grabbed from home:
4-oz turkey cutlet, 1.5-cups white rice, 1/2-can cream of chicken soup, 1-medium size bag of veggies (potato's, carrots, red bell peppers, corn, broccoli), and salt/pepper to taste. (690)

Total calories, excluding the free-meal was 1,485
