I might need some help. Tonight after everyone else in the family went to bed, I ate a whole bag of chocolate baking morsels. Last night I was victim to a whole bag of M&Ms. The night before that I drove late at night to Culvers for custard.
The odd thing? All day each of the last [...]
I met my running goal… I jogged for 30 minutes straight without stopping to walk any of it. I’m ecstatic that I met the goal, not really doubting that I would (those pushups are another story!) but I’ve really just come to realize that I will never really enjoy running.
I thought that I would make [...]
Today I’m really proud! I consumed only 1055 calories, a little too low again, but ate well. The scale is already showing me the positive reinforcement — 153 this morning — so it’s hard not to do it this way. I’ll be back under 150 before too long.
I also exercised again today — not much [...]
Since I made a promise to blog every day to account for my eating and exercise habits, I’m happy to report:
Caloric intake: 1484
Exercise calories burned: 226 (Wii Just Dance 2 and 30 minutes of stepping routine)
Net calories: 1258
I’m hoping that when I step on the scale tomorrow morning I will start to see some of the [...]
After a long hiatus, I dug the EA Active CD out of storage today and popped it in. I decided to do the 20 minute workout on the “Hard” setting. A couple of notes:
It was a little hard, but not bad! My lower weight has made any efforts to exercise much easier.
The last time I [...]
…which is ironic, considering my weight is “high”. I promised myself some time ago that I would never allow myself to yo-yo more than ten pounds. In other words, re-gaining more than ten pounds of weight I had previously lost would be unacceptable and would be a huge trigger for me to stop the insanity and [...]
This week I have the joy of reporting a two pound loss. You know what though? If I had a scale that displayed tenths of pounds, it would probably only show 1.2 pounds lost. I think last Monday I was likely close to 155.1 and this morning probably around 153.9 or so but when the [...]
I pushed myself on the treadmill today. I increased both my resting and running paces from 3.0 and 3.5 mph to 3.3 and 3.7 mph and also did three stints of faster running at 4.0, 4.5 and 5.2! (The last time I did this on Monday I did the last splurge at 4.5 [...]
