The Adventures of Fat Yip

I would post a pic of dinner but just look below at lunch. It’s the EXACT same thing only less sunlight off the counter top. Food still tasted pretty good and am fairly full. I also just cooked steak for both meals tomorrow and boiled hard boiled eggs for tomorrow morning as well.

Overall today was a bit different because I had a dentist appointment from 10am-1:30pm. In that regards, my breakfast was at 9am instead of 7:30am, my lunch was at 1:30pm instead of 12pm and my dinner was early at 6pm instead of around 7pm. Since I was able to work from home for the rest of the afternoon I was able to work out too. I headed over to the park across the street to hit the wall (lacrosse) for about an hour and then I did a couple hundred crunches and attempted to do some pull-ups. I actually looked up on my phone how to do a proper pull-up and I found an article that starts off by saying, “This should hopefully be obvious, but the more you weigh, the more you have to lift in order to complete a pull up.” This is from Nerd Fitness which was the first website displayed by Google. I kind of laughed and realize that I’ve always had a lot of trouble with pull-ups because I am pretty heavy for my height/size. When I happen to be by a pull-up bar with friends and everyone gets all full of testosterone and wants to see who can do the most pull-ups I usually defer and just say that I can squat way more than all of them. After getting a few pull-ups in before I felt like my shoulders were going to pop out of my sockets I went home to eat and to catch the Chargers game. I am a bit worried that I am going to be hungry around 9-10pm but maybe I”ll just be forced to go to bed earlier now too, especially because I can’t really go out to bars to have a drink.

So far so good. I don’t feel like I’m craving carbs yet but we’ll see how my body feels tomorrow.

Day 1 – 174.8lb/18.7%

8oz Top Sirloin with 2 cups of spinach with olive oil. Pretty tasty and also quite filling. This will definitely give me the chance to get super good at making steaks! I also don’t usually eat this much spinach so maybe I’ll update you on that in a few hours. :p

Let me start off by saying I LOVE EGGS. Ever since I can remember I have always had a crazy love for the little suckers. Every time people talk about hard boiled egg eating contests I ALWAYS INSIST that I would crush it. Well this morning was my first taste of that.
I am supposed to eat 4 hard boiled egg whites and 4 whole hard boiled eggs for breakfast for the next 19 days. I thought it was going to be a breeze with my constant craving for eggs. Side note: I’ve been out after a long night of bar hopping in the Marina and instead of getting pizza or some other typical greasy drunk food I went to a small donut shop to buy hard boiled eggs. I finished the 8 eggs and am still not feeling well. A lot has to do with the fact that I don’t usually eat anything for breakfast so I wasn’t even hungry to start with. The last 2 eggs were really hard to put down, even with water. I’d say 80% of the struggle was because I wasn’t hungry and 20% was I was kind of sick of it already especially with just the egg whites. Somehow the bad cholesterol filled yellow balls make it taste that much better.
Anyways I told Mike I was soooo full and he laughed and told me I should cut it down to 4 egg whites and 1 whole egg from now on. Somehow I was reluctant to make this change because I know in a few hours I’ll be starving and tomorrow will be even worse!
