Caffeine

Caffeine - What is a Safe Amount of Caffeine

I think I'm hitting 2.5 to 3 times more than the "safe" limit proposed by this website.

It's a big day - I made my first ever edit on a Wikipedia page. (That burned two or three calories, right?????)

169 Pounds

The scale this morning read 169 pounds. That's as much as I weighed in the second week of March, and a gain of ~4.5 pounds in the last month! I've really gotten away from a healthful diet in the past three weeks - time to recommit to more sane eating.

There was a real, live oriole in my back yard today. (No, not Cal Ripkin!) Anyway, check out this bird! (Sorry for the webcam pic....)

It hurts!

My biceps, my triceps and my abs hurt. Does that mean it's working?

P90X/2, Day 2

Day two was supposed to be plyometrics*, but with my knee still on the mend, I went to a "bonus" disk and did yoga instead. I made it 20 minutes through before I collapsed, so I guess that's not too bad. Point is, I feel better than I have in a long time. It's amazing how a little activity seems to give me a BURST of energy!

Finally

Ok, I finally *tried* to work out. I did the first section of the first P90X workout, and I did it all 'wimpy*-style.' I made it through about half before I felt an overwhelming desire to vomit. (Perhaps a dinner that had a large component of fried okra wasn't the best choice....)

Anyway, I lived through it, definitely felt some burn, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow. The phrase "half measures availed us nothing" is one that I don't think applies to this. Besides, the way I see it, the 1st 90 days are more about getting me to a place where I can do the real workout for the 2nd 90 days!

Cheers,

James
