Had a cardio day today. I was trying to cut weight to weigh in this morning... but didn't sweat enough over the course of this to weigh in... super lame as I wasted a morning that could have been lifting. Went from 204.4 to 203.6, which was surprising given I felt like I sweated a lot during this... anyway... super lame morning, dealing with tons of life stress and didn't take the time to keep sweating. I will have to weigh in some time next week.
