255/199.5/190

9 mile run this morning completed at a average pace of 8:46/mile. A little slower than I had wanted, but it was also a new long distance for me. The first of many to come.

10 days under 1400 calories or less. I think about 8 bikes rides in the last 2 weeks and the plateau finally broke.

THE SCALE WENT UP 1.5 POUNDS!!!



I know it is water and sodium retention from the meds I just started taking but that doesn't make it any easier to see the damn scale move up after my 10 day effort.

He can say all he wants. This time it isn't even remotely deniable. One of the normal side effects of what I am taking is weight gain.

Just finished an 80 minute ride. Hopefully that squeezed out some of that excess water. My shirt is soaked so it should have.

20 mile ride did zilch. Hung onto the weight.

I had a few extra calories today, about 1600 but I did get another 10 miles on the bike. When the scale moves up again tomorrow because of my damn medication, I think I am going to snap!

Well, some good news on the scale this morning. The 1.5 I gained from the meds dropped off at least temporarily.

The bad news is that after 14 pretty darn perfect days, I weigh just about the same today that I weighed 2 weeks ago.

Bench

Too early in the re-fattening season for you to be piling it on.

The real eating and temptations probably haven't even started yet.

Low sodium is really tough. I did it for a couple of years but it means pretty much all fresh food.

I'm back up to about 2500 a day and my blood pressure has crept back up so I do need to get back to less processed food.

I need to give up the turkey burgers. Those damn things have about 700 per burger.

Early on, I ate a TON of raw spinach salads with olive oil and red win vinegar. The vinegar gave it a bite to make up for the no salt.

I ate a TON of hamburger. Lots of scrambled eggs with a slice of cheese and 2 slices of bacon. That had some sodium but the rest of my meals had almost none.

Lots of stewed chicken using just onions and herbs to season.

Avoid hot sauce but if you must use it, tabasco as the least salt as long as you STICK to the portion.

Fake Tony seasoning sucks. I used the Paul Prudhomme no salt and it was better, but not great. I used a lot of Mrs. Dash but most of the flavors aren't great.

Lots of garlic and onion flakes.

BEWARE lemon pepper. It has TONS of sodium yet most lemon pepper bottles don't list it. There is a reason it tastes so damn good on chicken and fish. It has lots of salt.

Good luck.

I know TLDR
