9/28/2009-10/4/1009

Week 14 of my regimen starts this Friday.


Calories burned per minute at rest: 1.579
Projected food intake: 10400 calories (1650 * 6 + 500 for Monday)
Actual food intake:

Projected exercise: 8 sessions, 400 minutes, 4000 calories - (400*1.579) = 4000 - 631.60 = 3368.40 net calories burned exercising

Actual exercise: sessions, minutes, calories - (minutes * 1.579) =

Base calories burned per day: 2274
Base calories burned per week: 15918

Projected Net caloric balance = 15918 + 3368.40 - 10400 = 8886.40

No exercise. Yom Kippur so no eating/drinking for 24 Hours. Sunday night to Monday night. Shouldn't affect Sunday calories as you load up on food to hibernate Monday and will still eat a big meal (~500 calories) Monday night to break the fast.

Exercise log

The one post where all the exercise date will go (i.e. heart rate, calories, time, etc.)

Polar F11, after Fit Test and with own settings.

Starting next Monday I'm going to keep a close watch on calories consumed and expended. I won't work out Friday, Saturday, nor Sunday but I will work out 7 times between Monday and Thursday, doubling up on three of those days.

In order not to count resting calories twice on the hours I work out, I take what I burn in a day and divide by 24 and then 60 to get calories burned per minutes.

2274 / 24 / 60 = 1.579 calories burned per minute.

Calories burned this week through exercise : 3833 calories.
I ate less than 1650 calories each day, so I ate a bit less, but around 1650 * 7 = 11550 calories consumed in a week (3.3 pounds worth of calories!).

This week I've worked out 443 minutes (7 hours and 23 minutes in 8 work outs. Multiplied by 1.579 that's 699.50 calories I burn in 443 minutes by breathing. We take that from the 3833 calories burned this week through exercise and we get 3133.50 calories burned through exercise.

Resting metabolic rate: 2274 calories per day * 7 = 15918

15918 (cals burned per day) + 3133.50 (exercise) = 19051.50 - 11550 food = 7501.50 deficit. 7k deficit == 2 lbs.

EGG WHITES!!

I just discovered the wonderful thing that are egg whites.

Without yolk, 2 eggs:
7.2g protein
0.5g carbs
0.1g fat
31.7 calories

No cholesterol, 110mg sodium

With yolk, 2 eggs
12.6g protein
1.1g carb
10.6g fat
155 calories

424mg cholesterol, 124g sodium.

You pretty much can make yourself a dozen or two and just eat them throughout the day. There's no downside to them. They fill you up. Just boil a bunch (I just fit 20 into a large pot, enough for 2-3 days, easy to make) and take the yolk off as you eat them. You pretty much have to eat 22 eggs to exceed an average daily dose of sodium, so no worries there. There are no downsides whatsoever to egg whites. Low-calories, virtually no fat nor carbs, bit of protein, no cholesterol, low in sodium, and filling. The perfect food.

I'm shifting gears a bit with this blog.

The daily numbers are stable, so it's a bit boring to post the same thing over and over again. This is what a regular day of food looks like:

Breakfast
2 eggs with 2 slices of bread

Muscle Milk Light Protein Shake after workout

Lunch
8 ounces of chicken with 1 serving rice

Meal before work
8 ounces of chicken with 1 serving rice

While at work
1 serving fat-free milk with 2 servings Cheerios

1605 calories, 149.6g protein, 175.1g carbs, 30.1g fat

18% fat, 44 carbs, 38% protein

I try to keep fat under 20% although a 25% day here and there is not a dealbreaker. I try to have at least 30% protein. The rest is carbs. Carbs are not evil. My carbs come from fat-free milk and brown rice, mostly. It's all about the quality of carbs and a good balance.

I burn about 500 calories per day exercising. I will post weekly exercise logs starting on Sunday.

I get measured tomorrow and will post that. I have measurements from a week after I started exercising, six weeks after I started exercising, and tomorrow will be 10 weeks. I will then post measurements every four weeks. Pictures coming up within the next two weeks.
