Thursday's log

Last night (Wednesday), I felt great on no overt fats - very light and clear, even though I my body was definitely needing sleep. I went to bed early, woke up before 5 a.m. this morning, and was ready to go! I couldn't believe how good I felt this morning - so light and clear and ready to go! Made me want to have another overt-free day today! Went to the gym - did 30 minutes on the stairmaster (breathing kinda hard, but not as hard as when I do my speed training), followed by about 40 minutes of weight training (shoulders, arms, core), which was 3 sets of each of the following, in most cases to failure:

Shoulder presses
Ball crunches
Posterior delt lateral raises
Hammer curls
Oblique Crunches
Biceps curls
Roman chair back extensions
Hanging Abs
Skullcrushers

Felt great walking home!

My food for the day was as follows:

Breakfast - 1 bag red seedless grapes, 10 bahri dates
Lunch - 7 medium bananas, 5 stalks celery
Snack - 6 halawi dates
Dinner - 4.5 hachiya persimmons, 4 pints yellow grape tomatoes, a little more than one head letttuce, total (mixed romaine and green leaf)

Total calories/caloronutrient ratio: 2245 calories, 90% carb, 6% protein, 4% fat

I'm proud of myself - later in the evening, I felt a bit moody, but I did not eat "just because." I knew it wasn't going to make me feel better. ;)

Went to bed before 9 p.m.
