I am burning 3000 cals per day! Holy crap. I need to eat more if I want to gain muscle mass. That 1900 intake number is inaccurate; I lost track of my intake. Definitely didn’t pass an intake of 3000 or even 2500.
I walked for 20 minutes in the middle of the day. That boosted my steps up a couple thousand, but still not to my 10,000 goal. However, my treadmill time in the evening was less than usual, so maybe that will get it up there.
That evening, it was the third and last time with the trainer. We did legs, something I didn’t think I needed. I thought my leg muscles were set with all the running. But, man, we did some bulgarian squats and could barely walk afterwards. May have to reconsider leg work.
I’ll summarize my trainer routines in another post, now that I have his notes from our sessions. The similarity to Arnold’s book’s routine is encouraging.
I slept better not worrying about waking up early. I slept in until 6:30am. Ha. Still only got 7 hours of sleep. Not enough. Need to get us to bed earlier.
This is frustrating that I can’t control my bed time. Lori is trying to catch up on Gray’s Anatomy episodes and has a long way to go, I guess. Nothing is worse than going to sleep early despite the TV being on, then being woken up an hour or so into sleeping by the other person going to bed. I hate being woken up like nothing else.
Maybe pure exhaustion will make it more doable. I am getting super tired around 8pm these days. Unusual for me, used to stay up late, but maybe the early waking is finally catching up to me.
