Unexpected Results

Very strange...

Despite falling off the wagon 4 or 5 times in the past 7 weeks I've managed to lose an average of 2.25lbs per week.

I'm now 212.8lbs!

I have 17.8 lbs to go for my goal wedding weight of 195lbs and just over 9 weeks to complete it in.

67 days remain.

At my current rate of loss I should be able to lose at least another 20 lbs or so. I assume there will be some decrease in my rate of weight loss from 205 to 195 and I don't want to sacrifice any more muscle mass so I may need to start taking more L-Glutamine and hitting the Gym. Thursday the 22nd is an after work weight training day.

I'm off TotalLean today as I'm taking Sinutab for my cold symptoms and had some trouble with it last night. I just felt off after I took it and had some strange reaction to the psudoephedrine. Sweaty palms, chest pressure and difficulty breathing.

I'm going to Muay Thai tonight and depending on how hard of a workout it is I may hit the gym afterwards. At the *very* least I'm going to do the ABs diet AB workout at home tonight after Muay Thai.
