Weigh-in and progress report, 10/19/06
201.2 today, for a 0.6-lb gain. Eh.
Since I stated a sort of loose plan last week, I figured I'd put together an update on that, also.
- Quit eating so damned much. Weeell, sort of. I went from somewhere around a 40 point average to a 37 point average. It's kind of like the guy that goes from beating his wife every day to only beating her every other day. Technically, it's an improvement, but he's still a wife-beating asshole.
- Try to stay away from white food. I didn't eat any potatoes, but there were cookies.
- Five fruit/veggie servings a day. This one was better. There were two weekdays that I hit the mark, and once on the weekend. The other days were 3s and 4s.
- Bike commute once a week. Rain, rain, go away. I'm hoping to ride tomorrow.
- Go talk to someone at the gym about that Biggest Loser thing. I did this! AND I completed all 5 sessions! And signed up for 10 more! I rule!
- Work out every day. Eh, mostly. Other than Couch Slug Sunday, I did work out every day this week.
- Don't sabotage myself. I haven't had enough success yet for this tendency to really go into effect. So, all's good here!
- Have patience, live in the present. There are times I catch myself looking at dresses they don't make in my current size (trying to shop early for formal Christmas party), and the weight is coming off agonizingly slowly, but I think if I work on numbers 1-7, #8 will get easier. Of course, #1-7 require #8, so maybe I'm just talking out my ass. Whichever, trying to concentrate on one day at a time. Tomorrow will worry about itself.
