Finding my Motivation

So I got up this morning and had the usual conversation in my head about whether I should work out or not. I got up headed for the computer and the first site I went to was 3 fat chicks and happened upon a thread about all the things people could do now that they had lost weight. I remember those days and I want them back. I was convincing myself 15 min WATP was enough since I plan to do a big workout tomorrow. I think I'm bored with my DVDs so I got on my cable box which I think I pay way too much money for and browsed excercise TV. I did kendall hogan. I watched about 5 min of it to make sure it wasn't too extreme and jumped in Kendal is a beast...lol. It was mostly low impact and lots of choreography. I probably would have turned it off, but I said I am going to do this. By 10 min I was sweating, but Kendall is perky with out being annoying and by the end of it I had done the 30 min without even noticing.

I will say for the moves I couldn't do or went to quickly for me I either modified it for myself or walked in place till I could catch up. Proud of myself that I didn't give up.

I'll be looking for more of Kendall

I also have been looking for a new weight workout. I found one, but it is 40 min and it looks painful we'll see. Wish me luck.

I cooked a bunch of stuff last night, so I should be good for food this week. something else for the most part it is all organic, meaning I didn't use any additives. Other than spices and herbs there are not added chemicals or corn syrup whatever.

Feeling Good.

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...

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...

1lb

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...
