-
Got out for 9 holes today, is much better being able.to choose what hole you can hit to.
Oh, golf irritated my tennis elbow more than my golfers elbow haha
-
Hit the gym tonight, so good, but man I am gonna feel it tomorrow.
Decided to do my intake from today...certainly hit my protein for a change
The snack section includes protein shakes and fruit, sn't just loads of chips haha
-

If you’ve just done 170 then 180 straight after might be tough but if it went smoothly it could be a goer next time. Just be sure to rest for several days, from my experience trying to deadlift a day or two after deadlifting is not good.

I know its the wrong animal but all I can see is this:

went for my annual check up on Thursday, and in the past 24 months my Triglyceride levels have jumped from a healthy 1.5 whatevers to an unhealthy 4.5 whatevers...
My cholesterol level has gone form just under the healthy range to just over.
So some changes needed in my diet, and re-ignite my goal to get to my ideal weight of 95kg (post lockdown this year got to 102kg)

Canned chicken has to be the cause 😎

So starting point: 101kg this morning!
Weetbix do, well, a weetbix with plant sterols in them, which supposedly help with cholesterol, so will be having that as my brekkie from now on, with some oats, protein yoghurt and milk.
It is amazing how many healthy meals have loads of carbs and/or calories: 1700kj and 31g of carbs from 220g meal

I thought you were doing the non breakfast fasting or is that someone else on here ?
Yeah I don’t touch cereal, AT ALL. Way too carby and the supposedly healthy options usually aren’t that at all. It’s either that or a nice beer every now and again and that isn’t a tough decision at all.

@mn5 I gave up fasting a year ago!

Oh right. That’s something I do and have gotten used to and my belt buckle has thanked me but I do realise it isn’t for everyone. Easy on the weekends if I have a bit of a lie in but can be tough other times.

@mn5 did it for 6 months, but didnt enjoy it, is a good way to kick start things and lose a few kgs easily, was the 16/8 one

I’ve done it on and off for about 3 years now and it works for me. Also doing stuff where you move quickly and get out of breath after awhile…..I think it’s called “cardio” or some weird sounding word. Turns out it’s quite beneficial
