SFC "Mac Maximus" and the continuing adventures from an "Army Lifer"
Getting Back on Track

My first REAL day of vacation. (Monday, 6 Feb) Why? Because it's a Monday and I didn't need to go into work.
6:15 wake up.
I'm starting a mix of Body for Life styled workouts and counting calories, fat and fiber by the Weight Watchers method. (Counting the actual calories as in BFL is not much fun.) I will be monitoring how much protein I am getting in conjuction with my workouts.
Lost 10 pounds in the three weeks that I have been back with a slight increase in exercise and a better diet. No more heavy, grease ladden food from the FOB DeFac (Dinning Facility).
Pre BF - Tea with 1 tsp. sugar (1 PT) and a 500 mg Vitamin C, O.J. (2 PTs - waisted!)
BF - 1 EGG and 1 egg white omlete (2 PT), with 1 slice low fat cheese (1 PT), and 1 slice of Ham (at .5 point), and onions (Free). Coffee w/ splenda (Free), 20 oz. H2O
Moring Snack: Banana (1 PT) and 12 oz H2O
Lunch: Spinach (Free), Grape juice (3 PT's - ouch!)
1:30 to 2:00: Light workout (-1 PT)
3:55 to 4:40: Weight Training (20 min / -1 PT) and Cardio (25 min / -3 PTs)
Snack: Power Bar (6! PTs)
Snack: Cucumber slices (Free)
Dinner: Chill (4 PTs) and grilled cheese (3 PTs), Celery and Carrots (Free)

Got the children to bed.  After dinner they did a few exercises with mom and I.  Tomorrow is my youngest girls birthday, so I need to decorate her cake.  She is stuck on the Disney princesses and wants Belle on her cake.

Took about an hour to do the cake decorations.  Wife makes a homemade icing, strait suger!  I'll add a point just because I was working with the stuff and I think I got a contact high.  Think it's time to chill out with some CSI.

Tomorrow, the library should have our copy of disk 3 to season 1 of "24."  Really got hooked on that in a couple of episodes.  Finally catcin up on "Lost" also, but it is not as good as 24.
