A new level of workout -9/11

When I first starting excercising regularly it was just enough to get through the work out. Well I bought Walk away the Pounds DVD (walk strong) and didn't like it. I completed the workout, but missed the sweat. I am didn't like all the lunges and squats since I have bad knees from the weight. The other thing that has happened is I REALLY want to try the 3 mile workout. This is a little different from what I was before. When I did the 1 mile I would barely be able to finish and didn't even bother with the cool down. So things are getting better.

One of my big dreams is to be able to get into regular boots for the winter. My calves are too big so I haven't been able to wear anything I liked. Blah

One thing did happen this weekend I over ate. I knew from saturday i wanted corn beef hash, but I usually have a full breakfast so I had 3 eggs, a whole can of hash and 4 bisuits....That sucks so hard typing that....The reason I type it isn't to be ashamed, but to force myself to be accountable for what I eat. If I don't leave some kind of record of it I will sweep it under my virtual carpet and pretend it didn't happen.

Well the rest of the day was fine, had some grapes, made some fish ( I can't seem to get the hang of cooking thin slices of fish. I think I am not cooking it long enough). I had broccli and a sweet potatoe.

Kind of off topic, but I am so glad 9/11 is here. We have been in memorial mode for about a month and I am really ready to be over. I was lucky enough not to lose anyone and I was living in Philadelphia at the time. I lost my mother a few years ago and it is like reliving that all over again..over and over for a month. So I am really ready for it to be over. I have pretty much avoided the news shows today so we'll how it goes.

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...

Darn you to Heck Indian Food.

So yesterday I had lunch with my best friend.  She's smaller than me, but still heavy.  We went out to an Indian Buffet and I should have just ordered something from the menu, but I didn't want to spend to much since we were splitting the bill and had the buffet BAD MOVE.  It was all creamy sauce stuff which really begs to be poured over rice.  I was trying to pour it over the cauliflower dish, but that had potatoes in it.  I ended up just saying eff it and eating the cauliflower with a little potatoe.  Then my flawles logic *heavy sarcasm* said well if I'mma cheat go ahead and have the rice too.  I then had like 4 glasses of water.  I don't feel like I ate alot, the problem is I ate because of self peer pressure. I think of course wanted to punish myself and was going to make myself to a really hard workout today, but thought.  Ok I don't really want to do it...and I don't want to NOT workout because I don't want to do the work out.  ...

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...
