Went for a nice partner walk yesterday and then stocked up at the store with the usual competition fuel: granola, canned chili, Gatorade, cold brew coffee, and Trader Joe's sandwiches. 

Right quad is a little sore. Didn't really account for the low calories making me recover slower from this week's squatting, but I'm not worried about it and it's nothing severe enough to be affecting my gait. If 2 days of rest isn't enough to make it go away, oh well.

I've been feeling a bit sluggish for most of this week, again likely because of the calorie drop, but after a thick steak dinner with a little kimchi and fire-grilled veggies on the side, this morning I woke up and felt notably energized, which is a great sign. Last night, I weighed 201 after said steak dinner and a day's worth of eating. I'll bring a scale with me to the hotel to weigh the morning of (same day weigh-ins) and some sweating attire, just in case.
