Transformation Challenge 2024 Day 31

Day 31 was better than yesterday but still not great. My neck, lower back, knees, and both hands were quite sore. Work felt like it took forever but I did get some news about my bloodwork. The Drive home wasn't really any longer than normal but felt like hours. The gym was a difficult start, and dinner wasn't the easiest to get down.

When I got up my neck was better but still had a twinge to it all day if I tried to look left. My lower back, left elbow, and knees were also better but stiff.  My left index finger was still swollen and my right pinky has been tender all day. With all of that, it was in general a better day than yesterday.

Today I finally did not have an insane workload which is a double edge sword. I finally don't feel like I'm under the gun but then I don't have enough to really keep my mind engaged. There is a lot of busy work but it's mindless. I called my Gastro Doc a few times and finally got through to the receptionist around 3 and told them my results were released. She got back to me later and told me the Doctor already left for the day but they will review the blood work and tell me the plan moving forward.

With the great news of knowing tomorrow I will know what is going on with my body and the plan to move forward. It was time to go home for the day. The drive is about an hour without heavy traffic. I'm used to this drive as I've been doing it for 2.5 years now. But today it just felt like it took forever. I think it is because I'm excited for the news from my Doctor. I felt the same way in the gym. My Hour walk usually doesn't feel like it takes that long after the 20 minute mark. But today it was a trudge.

The other funny thing was that Dinner was kind of rough to get down. I think it is due to me getting 230 grams of protein today. That is nearly 50 more than normal for me. But I was hungry and I want to try to do a light calorie day followed by a slightly heavier calorie day. So day 1 would be 1700 calories. Day 2 would be 2200. Both days I'm still in a minimum of 800 calorie deficit but the light day it's closer to 1300, I did this before when my weight stagnated and it seemed to help..

That's it for today. Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop

Come back tomorrow for Day 32.
