Day 22

210.0 lbs. Three weeks gone and 13.5 lbs lost. I'm confident of getting down to 205 lbs now, as I still have several pounds of excess fat that likes to hang out around my stomach. I'm trying to apply a sustainable weekly routine regarding exercising and diet, something that I can maintain- or close to it- after my 50 days is up.

I managed an average of three exercise sessions last week from Monday to Friday, but I decided to do little at the week-end, and instead put more hours into playing poker. I also think it's more optimal to get some rest rather than risk feeling fatigued. That is now my plan going forward, but it will still be at least 15 exercise sessions a week. In addition, I'm also going to try to get in a session of stretching exercises every day.

6 sessions in the gym (5¼ hours)
2 sessions of football (3¾ hours)
7 sessions of boxing (42 rounds)

Poker-wise, I managed 45k hands which is a little short of my 50k goal, however I spent several hours analysing my game away from the tables which has enabled me to make some +EV adjustments. Total profit for the month (including bonuses) is $16,750
