Diet for yesterday was:
Calories 1636
Fat 37%
Carbs 16%
Protein 47%
I ate egg whites for the first time 1.5 cups mixed with 1 whole egg. I found them to be rather flat. We get eggs from local farms so they are pretty rich though.

I banged my right knee with a weight Saturday. I saw stars and had pain Sunday and some today. Hopefully it will loosen up tomorrow so I can do my workout.

good stuff, Greg. I hope the knee pain will subside and you won't be slowed down. I had my knee issues knock me out last week (I twisted it) -- frustrating!
also, you said exercise "so far today." Do you plan to do another round today?

I had to go to Lowe's today to get a new toilet seat. I was cleaning the old one and managed to crack it when I slammed it down after cleaning. Anyway, Lowe's, Walmart and their ilk are not fun to get around in while using a cane or crutches. I parked and walked down to the store. I don't use the handicap spots because I figure other folks need them more. Anyway, I'm walking around the store with the old seat looking for a match. If any of you are old enough I kind of resemble an old wrestler named Arn Anderson if he got fat and lost whatever hair he had. In fact, when I was young and serving subpoenas in DC, I used to sign his autographs for kids. Anyway, I now have to put the seat on. The point of this is, I did all of this and my knee didn't hurt! When I'm done, if it is not bothering me, I am going to the basement and working out. Woohoo!

Is this a clever guy trick? You know, you say you'll clean the bathroom but you break something and your wife says, " get out of here, I'll do it myself". Now, get your ass off that new seat and into the basement.

Yesterday I did get my ass off the seat and did the following:
My knee was still a little gimpy. I'm beginning to think my leg needs adjustment, so I stuck with upper body exercises:

Shoulder pulls with band: 54
Military press with 21.3 lbs DB 42
Lat Pulls 60 lbs 45
One armed DB Bent Over Rows: 26.3 x 50
Treadmill 3 x 11 minutes x 2.5 mph at level 2 elevation

I love the EDT style because I can build the routines around my limitations because the weight changes are limited. It's a good way for me top ease back into strength training.

Missed logging. I've continued to workout, but things have been stressful here so I haven't logged. My brother's son has testicular cancer and he just started chemo Monday. Our business is on hold until my brother can concentrate on it. I have been trying to get some criminal work and some writing assignments to earn some money. It's a slow process to start over.
Today I did the following:
Treadmill 2 x 15 x 2.5 mph at 2.5 degrees.
Squats: Holding 45lb plate x 20
BW x 10
Bench Press with feet up: 125 x 10
105 x10
Lat Pulldown: 65 x 10
55 x 10
Underhand Lat Pulldown 65 x 10
55 x 10
Lying Leg Curl 40 x 10
35 x 10
Military Press 26.3 x 10
Superman 15
Crunch x 15
I tried to do barbell squats, but I just don't have the balance to do them yet.
I did get to the point where I can get to the bottom of my driveway with my cane.
