Day 46 (Week 6): 10 TO 30 POUNDS BY November OR BUST
Week 1 Cruise to Lose!
Good Morning!!! Smooth sailing to all! I hope this day finds all of you wonderful, health-minded, lovely FS peoples all well and working towards your fantastic healthy goals!!
So Wow I blew away my exercise goal last week. 347 minutes! My goal was only 145! I won't do as well this week. I will be out of town on a Business trip Thursday through Sunday. I will do what I can and keep a manual log I guess, while I am there. not sure how much access to computers I will have. So I will keep a goal of at least 150 minutes.
Old Man Scale was a wee bit more amiable this morning. Back down to 249. Only 1lb to get to a new low (as opposed to working over known territory :)) I will be weighting in through wed and possibly Thursday morning them my next weigh-in will be Monday the 20th.
I did strength training on the Wii last night after 30 minutes of seriously working on my balance and posture issues. The Wii says I only did 6 minutes of strength, but I know it was at least ten so I am recording it. I watched a demonstration on these single leg lift things and was doing them with the "trainer" over and over and over again. Little did I know I was still watching the end of the demo looped. I know how long the recorded 6 minutes took and, yeah, I did a LOT more than that but I didn't want to over estimate either. I figure 4 minutes makes me feel less "cheated" LOL Either way I win since it was GOOD for me, but the gamer in me needs the points I guess!
I wound up skipping lunch yesterday. Not the most brilliant of plans, it just happened that way. Had a late breakfast and an early dinner so I guess it worked out. I was doing a party yesterday and the hostess offered my all kinds of cookies and spice cake and I actually said "no thank you" politely and explained a little and they were all supportive it was great! Funny thing is normally that would probably irk me (you know wanting it but not allowing myself to have it), but I did not care. I did not even really WANT the stuff. It was amazing! My calories have been a little low the last few days but nothing extreme. And I KNOW they will be high this week-end so it is a good idea to keep them between 1200 and 1500, I think, until I leave.
Almost back to the pesky 18lb mark. I should have it and maybe lower before I leave for Texas.
Well off to another healthy day!! Have a GREAT one!
Floor Goal: 250 Done, D-done, Done, Done!!! 13lbs down from the beginning of the challenge, 17 down from when I first started watching in August. Mid-range: 245 Turkey Day I am coming for you! 18 from beginning of the challenge. 21.5 from when I first started and 4 from now. Goal date Nov. 1st (or sooner, if I want to make the ceiling goal too!) Ceiling goal: 235 by the 30th of November. If my averages keep up, this should be no problem. It is a bit of a stretch, but that is what a ceiling goal is all about. :) 28 from challenge start, 14 from now and 31.5 from when I first started watching. (I can feel this with my finger tips if I just r...e...a...c...h!) Christmas Challenge Goal:230 by December 25th!! 36.5 from when I first started watching. (I have got a plan for the holidays! For once in my life I will NOT gain wait, I will LOSE!!!)
1st things first 245 (almost there!) then 240 then on down, down down!
Go Santa's Reindeer!!!! Just do it! Autumn Blue Crocuses Rock the Boat Blue Water Wanderers!
