Today was officially lazy day. We didn't work out, we didn't go to the gym, we didn't even really go for a walk. We did go to the store and go shopping but that doesn't really count. It was nice to not have to do a bunch of exercise and be sore or stiff. But … Continue reading Day 49…
Day 48…
Date night! And Seven Peaks... which isn't nearly as exciting. I did get burned a little but I put on sunscreen every hour or so. Guess I need to do it more. Did tabata and had fun at the pool but that is all the working out I did. Tomorrow is going to be a … Continue reading Day 48…
6-29-2013 – 297.7 Pounds
Oh yeah, made my first goal and more. Under 300 pounds by July. Very exciting day today for me, and for my lovely wife who also had a nice loss. We are in this together and will accomplish it together.
Day 47…
I would say today was a lazy day because of my elbow, but between the Tabata this morning and my C25K with incline walking I burned over 1600 calories, so I will thumb my nose at "being lazy" for the day. Because of our dinner choice last night I didn't have anything to bring for … Continue reading Day 47…
Day 46…
Because of my elbow issue I decided to start doing Tabata today. For those who don't know (or don't know how to Google) it is an exercise program developed by a Japanese scientist. In a nutshell, you perform a workout for 20 seconds at maximum effort followed by a 10 second rest, and repeat multiple … Continue reading Day 46…
Day 45…
I finally gave into the elbow pain. I got up this morning and could barely straighten my elbow. I guess playing through the pain doesn't always work. So I did not do the 30 Day Shred this morning. I just went back to bed for 30 minutes... and it makes me feel like a woose. … Continue reading Day 45…
Day 44…
Well, I was able to survive today even with my elbow pain, but it has gotten a little worse. I think I have "tennis elbow" though I've never had it before. My guess is that it probably started when I was chopping wood on the camping trip. It is recommended that I take it easy … Continue reading Day 44…
Day 43…
So I can't seem to win. I lose weight, I take it "easy" last week because of my back (which feels quite a bit better though not perfect) and my elbow starts acting up. Just out of the blue! I was going to go shopping yesterday and my elbow hurts anytime I bend it or … Continue reading Day 43…
6-24-2013 – 300.5 Pounds
So I got a couple extra days last week since I was camping, but that just means that I get a couple LESS days this week. Still, I am right where I want to be... if I can lose 0.6 pounds this week then I'll be under 300 pounds before July 1st. It hasn't been … Continue reading 6-24-2013 – 300.5 Pounds
Day 42…
Back from camping! Wasn't too bad of a trip. Did a whole lot of nothing. Though I did wander around a few times and chop up some wood so I got a good calorie burn. I was also able to stay under my calorie goal while enjoying things like cookies and chocolate. It was a … Continue reading Day 42…
