ROFL

Four sets of four at 265 on the bench this morning. Two more weeks on the program!

A real man would put 265 up 20 times without issues on a 16 day fast.

Heh. You sound like my workout partner (who lifts less than me, lol).

:) I have no issues admitting I am a wimp.
I am 160 lbs. Bench 250 without a spotter, dead and squat over 300 with two bulging discs in my lower back, leg press 750, Strict press 165 with two separated AC joints and tears in both RC's .

My body is breaking apart from all the years of abuse. Lucky I am still walking.

Here's my first day review.

Woke up at 8 AM and walked 2 miles. Est. 150 calories burned.

Ran 5.38 kil this afternoon, so roughly 3.3 miles. Approx 367 calories burned.

Will be going to the gym to do cardio workouts tonight.

15 lb dumbells-10 reps 3x (back on bench. Bench press the weights)
Another 10 reps of basic pull ups 3x
Various ab machine workout.

Est. 200 calories burned

Added on miscelaneous calories (aka sleeping, walking around, existing, etc) and it's about2,000 calories.

I think I will burn around 2,700 calories today.

Correct me if I'm wrong here

Eating review day 1.

2 dill kosher pickles-0 calories
applesauce-90 calories (1 serving)
6 marachino cherries-60 calories
glass of diet mountain dew-0 calories

Dinner

salad containing
1/8 cup of cheese-55 calories
2 tbsps lite catalina dressing-50 calories
chicken breast-141 calories

after dinner snack

green tea-0 calories
applesauces (again)-90 calories

6 glasses of water consumed today.

Total calories consumed-481

So 2200 calories burned when you factor in what you ate.

You should be drinking a lot more water.

How much should I drink?

And if I'm losing water weight, is it harder for me to lose said water weight by consuming so much water?

:facepalm:

If you know you wanted to lose weight, why didn't you start to exercise and diet sooner than 16 days before?

I doubt you are even close to that on the calories burned. People always overestimate burned and underestimate eaten.

No. That's not why you retain water. That has more to do with carb intake and salt intake.
