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

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...
