286.2 pounds this morning.

Walked for 30 minutes this morning.

I did 2 weight training exercises today.

For breakfast, I had: one cup oats (weight before cooking), one cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt, two teaspoons cinnamon.

Two hours after breakfast, I did 5 sets of barbell standing triceps extensions. I got hungry, so I ate lunch before continuing my workout.

For lunch, I had home made chicken chow mein, cooked with chicken breast, Garafolo whole wheat noodles, celery, bell pepper, onion, and Teriyaki sauce.

Two hours after lunch, I did 5 sets of barbell biceps curls. I skipped legs.

I ate a Payday bar after my workout. For dinner, I had ground turkey burgers with Teriyaki sauce, lettuce, tomato, and onion on two slices of Dave’s killer bread, with low-fat mayonnaise and mustard.

I got to thinking about power lifting. If I order some 45 pound Olympic plates, I can use my barbell to clean and jerk in the yard behind the trailer where I live. I might try that sooner with the weights that I already have.

I had a salad with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and Italian dressing. I also had an apple.
