Stuffed

Weigh In: 319 (Yup, lowest again!)
Calorie Count: 3066-ish
Calories Burned: 4444
Workout Total: Today, 45 minutes - March 536

For the last week or so, my body has been craving the 'bad stuff'. I've been driving past McDonalds and Taco Bell with that look in my eye lately, but I've been strong about it. I know we've talked about 'cheat meals' once a week or so, but with pounds falling off of me at a great rate right now, I didn't want to mess with what works.

So, I met in the middle today.

According to the calorie count, I took in 3066 calories today. But, that's over what it should be. This is my reading for today:

Item	Grams
Breakfast
Kroger Frosted Wheat Brown Sugar (2 Cups)	110
Milk, Nonfat, Fluid - Without Added Vitamin A (Fat Free Or Skim)	490
Egg, Whole - Cooked, Scrambled	61

Dinner

Sweet Corn Cake	112

Total Calories Consumed 3,066

As you can see, the Conquistador Combo from Don Pablos was my 'break' today. I consumed almost 2000 calories at dinner tonight. The combo is something like, 2 soft shell tacos, 2 enchiladas and four floutas (which are deep friend). Because I was getting full, I didn't eat one of the enchiladas, and I gave two of the floutas to my wife.

So, that 1127 was honestly probably somewhere around 800-ish, but I'd rather be higher than lower, so I'm leaving it as a full meal.

As I was ordering, I felt guilty about the meal. I have been doing 'so good', and part of me felt like I was breaking the diet. I didn't want to do a cheat meal, but now it's out of my system. Also, I stayed within my calories for the day, and since I've had some 1600-1700 cal days, I feel good about this. No apologies from me.

Also, for my workout today, I tried a few things. I did 45 min of all cardio today, but instead of just doing 45 minutes on the Elliptical, I switch some up. I started with 10 minutes on the Elliptical, and then moved to jumping rope. Then, some boxing. Then, this other weird machine that is SORT of like an Elliptical, but damn me if it isn't about 10 times as hard. Then, I got back on the regular Elliptical again.

I was sweating like Michael Richards (Kramer) at an NAACP convention.

So, another day closer to weigh-in. I figured that I wanted to get down to an average of 313 by the end of this month, and I may be able to pull it off. Hard work is paying off, but there's a lot of work to be done. Catch you tomorrow.
