losing 0.1 lb a week
15 September 2011
I was quite surprised when I stood on the scale this morning. I was down 4 lbs from last week. Maybe I weighed myself at night last time. I know I haven't been restricting my diet that much. Next week I think will be more telling of the pace at which I should expect to lose, 1-2 lbs a week is good for me.
My IT band in my left knee is causing me a little distress. I'm going to keep swim training but will probably have to cut down the practice time. I know I need to add weight or resistance training to my lower body. I would love to add yoga to my exercise routine but I don't want to sign up for a class. We'll see what happens there.

losing 4.0 lb a week

I have been eating more vegetables. My new housemate made the most delicious yet weird sounding salad dressing and I love it. So I'm eating a ton of salads recently. I continue to swim 2-3 days/week and walk almost every day at minimum .5 miles at maximum 2 miles. When I'm not on a specific diet, I don't obsess about my weight so even though it's tempting and I know I would lose the weight faster, I'm going to keep going my own route for now. I'm much happier in the summer and fall, it's ridiculous. I'm going to look into buying a light box to see if that helps my wintertime blues this year.
There's a cute guy at work that I'm interested in getting to know better. The only down side is that he smokes and that just reminds me of the 90s or something. I was thinking to myself that if ever asked me out, I would tell him that I couldn't date him until he stopped smoking. A little later it dawned on me that cigarettes for him is like food for me. And if he were to say to me that he wouldn't date me until I was thinner, I would probably want to hit him. So, I'm working on being less judgmental of others and of myself. I think he would probably prefer NOT to smoke just like I would prefer NOT to be overweight. We're just human is all.
I'm extremely curious as to what I will look like when I reach my goal weight. I have never been a normal weight as an adult. I can't believe I've been overweight for 13 years now. It's been my normal for so long. My health needs me to embrace a new normal.

I haven't been following a diet plan, just exercising. I've been swimming on average, 2x/week. I'd like to bump it up to 3x/week and add in some jogging and weight training on a gradual basis. As for diet, I don't plan to follow any prescribed plan, just increase fresh fruits and veggies and monitor emotional eating. Typically if I increase my jogging, my interest in food will decrease.

losing 0.6 lb a week

I don't like the fact that my icon is a taco...why is that? Well, I walked today, about 1.5 miles. I normally walk with my dog daily 2 miles a day. In order for me to lose weight, I simply need to start swimming again. I love to swim. After I get into it again, my eating habits normalize for the most part. But right now, I'm purposefully not going to the pool. Why is this? I think it's because once I go, I'll truly have to face the fact that I haven't been going. Getting started (again) can be discouraging unless I have a really positive attitude. Can't say that's true for me right now. I'm really struggling in general. I feel pretty isolated. I'm in a nice big office with a window, somewhat alone all day, sitting there. Never in the history of mankind have individuals spent an entire day, sitting. It's horrible. Then I come home to an empty house, don't have much motivation to go out and spend time with people. Everything seems exhausting. I know I'll get out of this slump but I right now I feel pain. It doesn't seem to do me any good, but I feel it nonetheless. My emotions have every thing to do with my being overweight. I know that.
