Week 15

Well this past week, I didn't get in near as much running as I like. I got to go once and that was it. We had a lovely little blizzard and the base was closed down for 3 days and when it did open, the gym was still snowed in, so I had to make do with P90X which is a nice change, but it is not anywhere near as good as running. I don't work nearly as hard doing that, plus I am just addicted to running now I think. But I was able to go again today, and I was so excited about it, that I bumped my workout up for 5 miles to 6, and it was great. Not so great was the snow that we were getting again this morning. I really hate snow!!!!!! Maybe someday, the Air Force will see fit to move us some where warm, like maybe Hawaii. Probably not though. Anyway hope everyone is having a fantastic week!!!!

Week 14

I guess I figured out what week it was again. So I have been trying to add some of the P90X workout in with my regular runs, with only limited success, probably only averaging two or three a week, which I guess isn't too bad considering I just started. I am finding it a little more difficult to add another hour of exercise into my schedule than I expected. I think that there is a specific work out schedule to those video, but I only have the video, and nothing else, so I am making it up as I go. That seems to be the way that I do everything though, so no surprise there. It has however seemed to get my losing streak back on which is what I was hoping for. I don't seem to be down a whole lot from last week, but Monday is always like that for me, since I don't exercise on the weekend (unless there happens to be a fun run), and I am OK with that. Anyway, don't have much to really say, except that I am so close to the 160's which may not sound like much to anyone else, but my doctor doesn't want me much lower than 160, so that means that my goal may soon be in sight. Hope everyone has a great week!!!!!

losing track

so I can't remember how many weeks it is anymore, but that is ok I guess. So just a quick entry so I don't forget this week, like I almost did last week. So I tried that P90X last night. I was interesting, so I think that I might start trying that out (in addition to my running of course). Can't hurt to get a bit of muscle tone on those areas that running doesn't hit. Well I reached my goal of losing 5 pounds for the month of November. Not quiet as good as the first 2 months, but realistically there becomes a point where it doesn't come off quite so quickly and that is ok. Anyway that is about it. Hope you all have a great weigh in and a great week!!!! I am excited to see what December brings, I am 12 pounds from my goal, I know I won't lose that much, but I will be closer!!!

week 12?

I think I am losing track of my time. Having family in town for the past week has really thrown me off. Thanksgiving was not nearly as bad as it could have been. I ate most of what I wanted and calculated my calories, and was surprised that they were not really that bad. So no gain over Thanksgiving, and I am so relieved. Anyway that is about it.

Week 11

So apparently I have hit another plateau. Such is life of weight loss. At least I know that if I keep working at it, I will eventually see success. It gets to be a bit frustrating, but I can be very stubborn. Hopefully next week I will start to see some results.

Week 10

I really don't have anything exciting to say this week. I guess that doesn't really differ from any of the other weeks but this week, I can't even come up with anything, so here is to another successful week.

week 9

I think that is the right week. So I finally conquered my plateau!!!!!!! So hooray!!!! It is always nice to know that your work doesn't go completely unrewarded. Sometimes it just takes a while, although it is sooooooooooo hard to remember that when you are in the middle of it. But rest assure, I will be prepared for you when it strikes again!!!!! I know I am a bit on the over dramatic side, but what can I say. That is about all for this week.
