Slept in today. Didn't drink.... had some kids over for my daughters and hung out until 3:00am before they all crashed.
Drinking my protein shake now. Really hungry, wife woke up and made bacon, waffles, and scrambled eggs with cheese.... bitch.
I am downing my protein shake and then I will be having my peanut butter toast and strawberries. I am counting my calories daily now. I don't allow myself to go over 2000. I have a calculated my daily caloric need to be 2796. So, I should be at a caloric deficit every day. But, I don't want to eat too little so that my muscle gains are limited.
Fine line I am walking. So far, I have dropped 13 pounds total body weight. I think I have added close to five pounds in lean muscle mass over the last four months.
I thought if I lost ten pounds I would be where I wanted to be....oops. I think another 10 lbs off the scale will put me where I want to go. I don't think I will want to lose any more than that. I figure, I will be adding muscle as I decrease fat. So, 10 lbs of total weight loss should equate to 15lbs of fat lost, and 5lbs of weight gained.
Happy new year one and all. May you get huge in all the right places!
