Day 1 of a planned 5 day ‘no solid food’ fast
Blood sugar 86 mg/dL
Since I gained 6lbs in the past 4 days I decided to see if I could use this unintended ‘bulking’ in the gym.
Old workout:
Squat - 180lbs (10 reps)
Deadlift – 180lbs (6 reps)
Shrug - 180lbs (8 reps)
New workout:
Squat - 200lbs (10 reps)
Deadlift – 200lbs (6 reps)
Shrug - 200lbs (8 reps)
Now about that “gaining 6 pounds in the last 4 days”. Basically, “water” matters. With my body, water is NOT predictable. Also, water accounts for 8-10 pounds in 'either direction'. That ONE factor frustrates my ability to accurately predict anything :)
The reason I continue to do the ‘fasts’ is that it is no mystery to me how to GAIN weight. Keep eating the way I have the past 4 days and the pounds will continue to pack on. So, this one is simple: “Don’t do the thing that you know makes you gain weight” 😊
Increasing my calories will 'usually' cause me to gain weight, but when I increase my carbs I 'always' gain weight.
Have a great day everyone!

I agree with you that if keep eating a certain bad way, the gain will return. I shut my pie hole last night on my 3rd day (After washing down a peach apple cobbler with eggnog and a little honey whiskey). Starting this week off with a minimum of a 24 hr liquid only sub 100 calories (cream for my coffee) fast. Good luck and onward.

great work out and yes knowing and doing seem to be two totally different things for many of us. working out what works best to get your ultimate goal is what you strive for

"Don't do the thing that you know makes you gain weight" - does that come in a t-shirt? WANT ONE!

Damn!!! 200 pounds!! That’s great! Such a good use of carbs LOL! I was suppose to go to the gym last night but laid down for a second and past out. I hope I can get back to sleep (currently 12:50am) so I can get in there at 5am.

@CrashtestDawnie - (hug) You will be fine :) It's a 'process'. Turning 50 was a huge motivation for me to finally get to the gym on a regular basis.

I really admire you guys, you spend all day working and at night you still go to the gym, as I do house work, I clean up my house too many times a day an a few minutes later it is messy again 👶🏼, so for me exercise is my priority, as long as the house is clean and dinner ready my day is done , but I do have time to exercise in the morning, noon and afternoon, and some days I still find an excuse for not to do it 😐

Keilin don’t feel bad. There’s always an excuse/ reason not to do it. No matter how much time you have on your hands, which isn’t all that much with the lill one I’m sure; it’s hard to spend our free time working. I went to the gym this morning!
