So, I had my first week of weight gain since starting. However, it was only .4lbs. It could have been a lot worse. This was a bad week (from a fitness standpoint). Thursday and Friday were fine – my normal fitness routine and eating healthily. Then it went downhill. Saturday morning, Eric Dunlop was in town with his wife Christie. The two of them, Jason and Heather, and I met at Mongol’s in Westwood for lunch. To try to not go way overboard in calories, I skipped breakfast. Then I didn’t eat until around 6PM between the dress rehearsal and concert. I had chips and salsa, tacos, and a beer. After the concert I had some little meatballs and a large glass of wine. I also never had time to do my normal exercise routine.
Luckily the next day was… the Super Bowl… Yeah, that was even worse. I went to my cousin’s place and had a lot of unhealthy party foods. They were delicious! I also had three beers. That morning I at least worked out my arms and abs. That night, Michelle and I slept for three hours (terrible for weight loss).
At 8am on Monday morning, Michelle and I met with the Rabbi who will be officiating our wedding. Monday was a really long day. After the meeting, I had work, and then two rehearsals at UCLA. I did not work out.
I finally got back on track Tuesday and Wednesday. I was pleasantly surprised at the weigh-in to find that I only gained .4lbs. After over-eating, junk food, sleep deprivation, large infrequent meals, beer, wine, and not working out, it could have been worse.
