Who knew 5lbs could feel so heavy.

So I haven't worked out since wednesday and its because friday I got on the scale and it went down. Also just because it was friday.  Since it was friday, I didn't pack a lunch, ate at the whole foods buffet, went out to dinner, ate too much and generally did everything possible to screw up my one pound loss.  Rather than learn from that I then spent saturday not eat anything good for me and eating when I was distinctly not hungry.

BLAH !!!

I managed to stop myself and today (Sunday) I got up worked out (80min) and sweated my butt off.  I had a nice healthy vegetable omelette.  I'm full and I won't be eating anything else till I'm hungry again.

When I went to work out I think I was trying to punish myself so I did a workout, I usually hate, but today seemed not so horrible.  I think its because I'm in better shape when I first started.  I actually for down and did the floor portion for the first time and since i can't do a pushup I did a 30 sec plank which had me shaking the last 10 sec (something to work up to). Walking cardio shape up   41min.

Then I did kendall hogans's crunch video and I only used 5lbs weights the whole time but I felt it.  I did both the upper body and the lower.


I loved it, lol...I also seemed to have gotten rid of that weird extra fold in my arm  I had when I held my arm over my head and I think my top stomach (lol) is getting smaller.


While i'm happy I'm back I think switching my weigh in day to Saturday will prevent me from overdoing it celebrating the end of the week. So next weigh in in saturday.

Oh yeah not sure if I posted it 349 on 10/22/2010

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...

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...
