Ok, maybe not fat since I actually didn’t gain any weight on this trip but I do feel flabby. Ten days without my gym routine and ten days of a completely messed up diet full of french fries, mayonnaise and lots of dessert will do that. Not sure what started my downward spiral but I think it was the fact that for the past month I was on a practically no carb diet that consisted mostly of just grilled meat and chicken. I think I just went berserk getting everything out of my system so that once I got back to Kuwait I could go back to my strict routine. This morning before heading to the airport I even had knefe with cheese in ka3k bread (pictured above) which must be like a million calories. I’ve got one more thing I need to do though which is Chinese food. I haven’t had Chinese food since I joined Core Fitness back in January so tonight I’m going to Peacock to celebrate the last day of my 10 day streak of unhealthy eating. Everything will be back to normal starting tomorrow.

welcome back
we didn’t miss u
Can you say “D-oh!!!”
It’s OK Mark. You have adjusted to your workout lifestyle. Even if you get out of shape you’ll get back in shape like in a month or so. Dont worry, but you sure will have work hard 😉
vampire: liar!
you were missed 😀
I know how you feel. When I miss my workouts or overload on carbs I feel bloated/flabby even though I may not have gained any weight.
Welcome back fat boy 🙂
I’ve been living your 10 days, my whole life..need to take some action!
welcome back mark!i just wanted to note…
Why on earth would anyone need to be on a “practically no carb diet”!
What u experienced in lebanon is classic rebound phenomenon!
Welcome back Mark
Dina,
He was “low” carbing in the last few days before his flight to Lebanon. His diet was low in starches but high in fibrous leafy carbs.
Mark,
Dina’s right. Your bloat and overall crappy feel is due to calorie induced water retention. It’s reversible within a few days.
Fahad sounds awfully forgiving given his Ramadan escapades I suppose…hehe
lol yeah i noticed that too
Welcome back Mark 😉
