Big-Ass Meal

Weight: 244.5

At work today.

Breakfast:
2-flour tortillas, 2-eggs, and 1-small potato (468)

Lunch
1.5-cup wheat tortellini, 1-can cream of mushroom-lite, 10-ounces extra lean ground beef, and 2-cups broccoli (1279). This was a HUGE meal and I ate every bit of it. It was a ton of calories, but it tasted ohhhh-sooooo good.

Stationary bike 50-minutes. Level 4. Average speed, 15.5 mph.

Lower-body workout:
3 x 15 sitting toe lift
3 x 10 squat to bench 20#
3 x 10 forward leg raise
3 x 10 leg extension 40#
3 x 10 hamstring curl 35#
3 x 15 standing tow raise 30#
3 x 10 side leg lift
3 x 10 inner leg lift
3 x 12 toe-in stretch
3 x 12 toe-out stretch

Walked 0.40 miles in 6:08 (15:20 pace). Ran 2.11 miles in 24:10 (11:28 pace). I struggled today. I wanted to take a walk break. It was all mental and the heat sucked. Within the first 5 minutes I was ready to be done. It was hot outside, so I made a small adjustment in my pace and the run instantly turned magical. No problems whatsoever. All I had to do was slow down 30-seconds per mile. Pretty simple, huh? It worked!

Upper-body workout:
3 x 10 wrist curl 35#
3 x 10 reverse wrist curl 10#
3 x 10 alternate bicep curl 20#
3 x 10 seated bicep curl - bar 20#
3 x 10 lying triceps curl 25#
3 x 10 standing triceps curl - bar 20#
3 x 10 dumbbell press 20#
3 x 10 prone deltoid press 8#

This was a long workout session. Took me about 3-hours from start to finish.

Dinner:
Subway: 6-inch roasted chicken breast on wheat bead (310)

Total calories for the day; 2,057

For what its worth, I'm feeling healthier.
