This morning's scale weight was 221.8, lower than expected despite the increased carb intake.  Also, the Bodymetrix BX 2000 arrived last night, so I'm still learning how to use it.  Once I've got it figured out, I'll post the body fat measurement as well as some pictures that show the cross-sections of fat, muscle and bone - pretty cool stuff!

I'm not counting calories this week as I had in the past because I don't believe it is necessary, and if I'm saying you shouldn't do it, then why am I doing it? :-)  Rest assured that I'm eating 5-6 times a day with carbs in the first two meals, protein with EVERY meal, and fruits/vegetables as much as possible.

This week I did stepmill intervals on Monday and Wednesday with the Xvest, which is now loaded up to 40 pounds.  On Tuesday, I did a full-body workout routine using weights (I had been doing mostly bodyweight exercises for the past month or so).  I'll post more details about the workout tonight.
