Here is a little something to get things going:
Today was a 2.9 mile jog with my wife in the AM to get me going. I felt better than Tuesday but still not like it was easy. I have a long way to go still.
I had a great day of work, I was busy but not totally physically drained and sore like some days. I only needed 2 advil today so that was good too. I ate well and realize I am eating better, and it is easier while working in the construction areas. I am too busy to stop and take a long break. I am not bringing junk so I am eating well with fruit and Special K bars for snacks and I pack lunch. This is a winning combination for me. (WINNING! says Charlie).
I decided to do a cardio workout in the afternoon and heading to Bally’s so I could weigh myself also. The scale was not kind.
I can’t blame the scale, it was all me. I ate too much crap foods and too much quantity of foods this holiday weekend and lost out on twice a day workouts so I gained. I am OK with what went down since I hosted a party for friends I have not seen in years, and we caught up. I am now fearful though I am going to miss my 26 week goal now as I had another week of lost weight loss. I hope to make up some of the deficit, but I don’t think I will be seeing any 5-8 pounds of weight lost a few weeks in a row. Who knows.
Anyway, at the gym this afternoon I did 30 minutes on the elliptical machine. I guess I will need to bump that up to 45 minutes or more to get back on track.
I have eaten well and am at 2,074 calories consumed so far. I might have some fruit before going to bed so that may go up 100 calories. I feel good and am looking forward to tomorrow!
