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

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...

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...
