Day 44



205.4 lbs. 18.1 lbs lost. My shin splints have continued to handicap my ability to work-out, so I'm quite pleased that I've managed to remain at 205 lbs. I don't foresee a recovery before I turn 40 next week, so I'll be happy if I can stay around this weight for now. Once I can put in some proper cardio again, I'll probably see if I can get as low as 200 lbs.

On the plus side, I've been putting in close to 10k hands a day at poker at a decent win-rate.

  2. Good work Mike. For shin splints try these:

    My shins have hurt for a couple of years but these really help. I always wear them on long runs, footie, drivin, sometimes sleeping. I got a medium which will be really tight but thats the idea (they loosen a bit over time). Supposedly for calves but help with mysterious shin splints which no-one seems to know much about. Loads of triathletes wear them. cheers, Steve
