By the Numbers
  by Travis

Had an almost perfect week, last week; made it to the gym on four of the days and did some cardio for the other three. I say it was almost perfect because of a couple eating snafus (which may have included the consumption of a beer or two). Of more interest, is an actual progress report. So far, I've manage to gain a little over four pounds, of which two to three are muscle (if I've done my math correctly, using an increase in BF% of about 1%). All measurements were taken on the same scale, in the evening.

While shopping over the weekend, it occurred to me that I'm going through quite a bit of food on a weekly basis. Every week, I consume:
2/3 jar of peanut butter
1 carton of eggs
1 loaf of bread
1 gallon of milk
1 bag of oranges
2-3 lbs of lean meat
1 lb of spinach
5 Apples
5 containers of yogurt
½ of a large container of yogurt (smoothies)
1 bag of frozen blueberries
½ lb protein powder
plus a bunch of other miscellaneous food items
