Lay Aside the Weight
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us…” (Hebrews 12:1)

Sunday Weigh In

Drumroll please...today's weight is...
214!!
That's 1lb lost for a total of 21lbs lost and 39lbs to go.
The diet was better this week though not perfect. No Mexican or ice cream last night! I think I need to kick up the cardio, maybe add some strength training, and cut out ice cream altogether this week and see what happens.
Onward...

Sunday Weigh In

Drumroll please...today's weight is...
213!
That's another 2lbs lost for a total weight loss of 22lbs. I have 38lbs more to lose to reach my goal weight.
I had a great week of exercise between 4 runs totaling almost 9 miles and a lot of work outdoors sweating in the heat. The diet wasn't the best (a lot of pasta and ice cream) but I had no fast food all week (I don't think last night's dinner at Five Guys really counts) and only two sodas. At two pounds a week I should be under 200 by the end of September, a great way to kick off my birthday!

Biggest Loser Training

So today I hit the treadmill using a training method from The Biggest Loser trainer Bob Harper. It was INTENSE 30 minute interval training at levels I had never hit before. I'm really feeling back on track and with good nutrition this week should see some results.

Back in the Saddle Again

It's been a little over 6 weeks since my last weigh in. In that time, my treadmill was (again) malfunctioning and the past winter's outdoor running took a toll on my knees and back. So I took some time off. The treadmill is now fixed and I'm back on track, though a little bit slower than before. So....here we go:
Drumroll please...today's weight is...
215!
That's 20lbs lost and 40lbs to go. Up 6lbs in 6 weeks. I'm on "stay-cation" this week so my goal is at least three days of running at least 2 miles each time, shooting for three miles by the end of the week. Better food, more water, no soda.
Onward...
