You can probably lose 2 or 3 pounds of fat in a week (if you’re really strict) but anything beyond that is just water and muscle loss.

Yap

Immediate goal is to lose the holiday bloat/extra water

Making a green tea RIGHT NOW

You're not down with black tea? I can't stand green

 

[Matty]

JL asked me about it.

-Does it taste good?
-Hmmm. It's an acquired taste.
-What does that mean?
-It tastes like a warm cup of grass.
-😵

I get a matcha tea blend, it's a bit sweeter and less bitter than straight green tea.

Earl grey tea reminds me of my grandma. Never been a fan of the taste.

Poop update - still nothing

Try green rice tea,they usually serve it at sushi restaurants.I like it and I am not a tea person

 

[Matty]

That's the kind I had last night. Toasted rice green tea. Was aight but I bought more matcha this morning.

 

[Cougar Bait]

Matty is all backed up.

 

[Matty]

I typically output giant 2lb logs every other day.

 

[Archie]

[Dingo]

I usually eat something grease to get the old shit sack working!

10pm update @Matty

 

[Matty]

Status quo. Not expecting any sort of anal discharge tonight. I am a morning excretor.

 

[roguejuror]

I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers

The Poop Eagle has landed

Payload was a bit lighter than expected

212.2lbs

 

[roguejuror]

I was expecting more

A bit disappointed

 

[Matty]

0.8lb in one day is pretty damn good, but yeah, I was expecting a bigger negative dump

So I did my first indoor bike ride of the year yesterday after 2 weeks almost completely off the bike. It is "Tour de Zwift" right now on Zwift which is the busiest period of the year for them. Anyway, I killed it. I held 213W average (229W normalized) at 136bpm which is the middle of my "zone 2" (easy aerobic effort.) Legs felt invincible. My FTP is around 295W right now, vs. my peak of 332W in October 2023. Not bad considering I'm doing half the volume I was doing back then.

tl;dr I'm pretty fast for a fat 46yo dad

 

[Matty]

I'm hungry

 

[Tron]

Cut up some bell peppers and chow down
