Exercise – This week begins the 2^nd recovery week of P90X (the 4^th week of Phase 2).  Today was one of 2 Yoga days for the week.

 

Diet – Omelet with turkey bacon/peppers/onions/cheese for breakfast, protein bar for snack, celery salad with ham and turkey for lunch, protein bar for snack, salmon/asparagus/potatoes for dinner.

 

A little side note: my brother has offered me some added motivation to surpass my original goal of 60 lbs lost during this journey.   Please find his email below (the Uncle Mike is in reference to him and his wife expecting their first child July 28^th, just a few days before final weigh in.  Hopefully by then I will have lost about 6-7 babies worth of weight.

 

“I am proud of you, and bet you can get beyond your goal of 60 pounds lost.  If you make it to 66 pounds lost, I will take Uncle Mike out for dinner at a restaurant of your choice.  Limit is $100 for the meal and drinks.  Or if you have another goal reward in mind outside of food, please let me know and we can look at that.

Why did I choose 66?  Lemieux!  That guy came back from Hodgkin's lymphoma to win the NHL scoring title.  You have a little extra fat, not cancer.  You can do this bro!”
