'Twas the Night Before Lipo...


Tomorrow I head in at 7am for lipo on my inner and outer thighs and hips. I'm not particularly nervous, since I've done it before and it was a breeze. For anyone considering laser lipo to take care of that stubborn pocket of fat, I highly recommend it.

Last time I had the procedure done on my abs and waist on a Thursday and was back playing soccer on Monday. I think this time might be a little slower recovery since I use my thighs a lot more than my abs, but I hope to be back at Crossfit and soccer by the middle of next week.

The procedure itself takes about 4 hours (depending on how much they take out). You come home swollen and a little bruised with a series of small punctures. For my stomach it was about 15 small holes that will fade over time. It's been about 2 months now and they are just starting to fade, but I'm a slow healer.

I will definitely be posting pictures on my progress over time.

I counted all the calories I ate yesterday and decided to include my normal amount of cheese and dark chocolate to see where that landed me. The breakdown was:

Calories: 1256
Fat: 45.9%
Protein: 22.8%
Carbs: 31.2%

Just cutting the chocolate would have put me at 936 calories, with ratios of 40.4% / 29.4% / 30.2%. I have no idea if that's good or bad, but I intend to find out when I start reading my new books. They arrive today.
