ReturnOfTheDad Posted July 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 2020: Year of the Quiet Warrior - Summer Ranger Quest Word of the Year: Discipline Sleep: 8 Hrs Weight: 226.6 lbs Water: 5/8 Gallon Calories: 1200 Meals: 7:30am - Greek yogurt, blueberries, almonds, coffee 11:30am - Egg white omelette, zucchini chips 1:30pm - Coffee 3:00pm - lettuce wrap, pickle, and seaweed chips 6:00pm - Decaf Tea Fitness: Rest Day Notes: Weight loss continues, pretty sure it’s been water weight and it will start slowing down now. Just have to stay consistent on my current nutrition and exercise plan. Have a really big project come up, not really looking forward to it as I only know how to do about half of what is being asked. It is however a learning experience with a more tenured team member, so if nothing else it will be a learning experience. So very ready for Friday and the weekend. 3 Quote Link to comment

It is HOT out there. Find myself taking breaks not because I’m winded (though that does happen) but just sheer exhaustion from the sun beating down. Hopefully my body will adjust, especially since the heat is starting to ramp up around here. Work today sucked, got a big project dropped on my lap that means I have to work through the weekend. Just trying to take it a step at a time today. 2 Quote Link to comment

Now just have to stick to it and know that consistency is going to win here. On a weird note, one of the medications I’ve been taking has made my hands and mouth shake. Apparently this is a reaction to one of the medications I’m taking so now have to add an anti-tremor medication. Tried one out last week and a new one today. Only real downside is I can’t have coffee (nullifies the medication), so back to herbal teas I go... 3 Quote Link to comment

Not quite sure why, may be the new medication. Will continue existing routine for a couple more days before reviewing the current plan. Should have eaten more than a shake after my workout.

Did our own little dine around with all the restaurants in walking distance and had a really nice time. With all the craziness of kids, jobs and family, it feels like we’ve gotten out of touch, but when we get chances like this it’s nice to see we can still have a good time on our own. It’s taking work, but then again everything worth having does. 4 Quote Link to comment
