Disproving CICO Daily

Monday, January 27, 2025

I am always bemused by insane weight gain or loss days.  Both prove, conclusively in my eyes, that at least in the short run the calories in-calories out theory of body weight is rubbish.  I ate a lot yesterday.  Certainly several thousand calories over my base caloric burn rate.  If CICO were true, I would have gained perhaps a pound or so.  But in no universe did I eat enough to go up five or six.  Instead I'm just retaining extra water.

I take no position on the validity of CICO over the long run.  I do not have anywhere near the level of interest, let alone time, to do a serious examination.  

Anyway, another Monday.  A bit of a sluggish start, sleep grade C.  Quality was okay, just not nearly enough since I don't think I got to sleep until 12:30.  Minor headache and congestion upon waking, both quickly resolved.  So a very average night.  And, as can probably be guessed, weight was way up.  Which is neither a surprise nor a big deal.  Time to do better.

Breakfast:   4 strips CF hickory bacon, coffee

Yep.

Lunch:  2 CF eggs scrambled w CF chorizo, avocado, 3 slices Land O Lakes american, a little sour cream and some jalapenos

Tasty.  Egg bowls about to become a much bigger thing.

Dinner:  2x mexican 2x american tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA

Yep.

Exercise:  Nope.  Serious work demands the next three days.
