It's been about 9 days since July 4th. The scale this morning read 233. I thought nah, can't be. I Stepped off, then back on and 233. So off again, and on again. 233. Holy Hallucinations! It must be right! Then I thought maybe that's why I am feeling so damn crappy lately. For Aaron and the rest of the population that is weak in math, that is 6 pounds in 9 days. I think that is too much, too fast.
I've been eating about 1500 calories a day. Yes, I am keeping track and no I am not feeling hungry. Then I am going to the gym and working out with weights for about 45 minutes then running about 3 or 4 miles on the treadmill afterwards. I've been doing this about 6 times a week. I think the headache I have this morning is my body telling me to Chill. And warning me that if I don't there will be more pain to come.
Since I listen to my body I have already given it a little treat this morning. I still had my egg white omelette but I tossed in a slice of American Cheese. Then I added a side of Wellsley Farms Chipotle Black Bean Salsa Chicken Sausage. Total caloric intake is about 400 calories. Compare that to the 100 to 150 I usually have and you can see the difference. And I can tell my body is thanking me for it. The headace is still present but it is hurting much less than it did when I woke up.

Seems like I may have rubbed some bellies the wrong way with this post.
I am just going to make a new post with my thoughts and we will go from there. Oh, and Aaron...
Yes that is the way it's gonna be :)
And good luck on your century!! I've always wanted to try but the pain in my lower back at around mile #20 is numbing.
