And the experiment continues....

So even after my last post the eating fest continued.  I did a cheat weighin (weighing in after working out and I was 350.  So I think I gained, but i have 6 days to try and get back to where I was, also my period is due any day now.


Since I did alot yesterday I went kinda of easy today 30 min kendall hogan 30 min cardio.  I worked up a sweat, but it wasn't as motivating as it once was.  I think its because I've done it so much and know the routine.  I also did just about all the 12 min abs I've been avoiding and realized its too much for me.  I'm going to switch to the chris freytag ab workout.

So I feel like my diet is a big scientific experiment.  I know after I workout I am ravenous.  So I had a carb heavy breakfast and a serving of the cabbage I made.  I was fine till i got to work then I had a napa cabbage salad (Yes to Feta, no to blue chesse).  I had 2 string cheeses and then lunch.  With lunch I had 32oz of water so I'm pretty full actually.  Usually I have something sweet after, but I'm too full.  Dinner will be no carbs.

I was reading someone's blog who works to have a correct ratio of carbs, protein and fat (I think),.  I can't see me doing that but I am starting to watch how many carbs I have everyday.

Also I am going to stick to IE, but attempt to enter what i'm eating into spark people (After I eat).  Since it tracks what I'm eating I'm going to see if I can stay about 100 carbs a day.  I know totally random, but we'll see.

Oh yeah I think the English muffins are on they're way out, but only on workout days.  I'm going to try and do without bread on non-workout days and see how I feel. 

Also the spark people website helped me realize, well that and I always felt thirsty, that I wasn't getting enough water.

So I'll be logging everything or close to it this week.  It will be guess

Wacky Scale, My Krptonite

Well I haven't posted in a while. Seems like I learn something new everyday. I went to my parents this weekend and just ate. I don't think I overate as much as I normally would have, but I ate more than I should have. I also had a few days where I went over my 2000 calories, but since I need 3000 to maintain my current weight I am still pretty ok. I kinda fell of the excercise wagon. I am trying to build up to Mon-Fri and weekendos off but just can't seem to get motivated to workout as soon as I get home. I have a part time job at night starting thursdays so we'll see what happens. I am guessing I am going to have to adjust to nights. So I weigh myself twice a month I know I have lost inches because the black jean that were once super tight even after I wore them a few times are now pretty lose. So thats night. But here is more proof the scale is wacky. Weighed myself last night 345. I didn't gain or lose. Weighed myself this morning after first bathroom t...

Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...
