No Beer, Day 3, 2 pauses allowed
Exercise schedule, Still waiting for lift off
My son didn't go to school today due to an earache, so I couldn't go to the gym. It may be a while before I get lift off on the exercise schedule, but I am trying to get SOME kind of exercise in. Hoping to jump on the bike in a bit.
Yes Red, my beer challenge had a one day stealth .
Unwanted, you make my 10 minute and 15 minute run challenges look whimpy. I'm tempted to try yours, but I think it would be bad for my knee to run that far everyday.
Angeline, I find day 4 the hardest. Now there's no turning back and it gets easier!! You too Red!
Sara, gad to see you're keeping a tally on your no desserts, even past 21 days. Lets see how long your streak can last!!
Gotta run! Stick with it everyone!!
That was good but I am utterly disgusted with my eating. Everything good has fallen by the wayside again because I am so busy and tired and stressed because of all the work piling up. I binged on sugar yesterday and I don't even know why, I mean, for what good reason I would do that. There is no good reason, just the lame excuses mentioned above and one emotional blow at the riding club yesterday when the owner said I couldn't ride the horse I was so looking forward to. I take it as a blow against my skills and because he absolutely despises fat people like me.
I am really disgusted with myself and this means there is a very real danger of my turning that disgust against myself yet further and smoking. Damn.
Hey Everyone!!!
I havent posted in soo long, it seems like FOREVER!! How is everyone? Well I've been doing terrible with my diet and exercise since Easter, I just cracked. BUTT now I'm back ( and up to 171! ) and I'm getting back on track. My challenge will be the same as it was before
- at least 30 mins exercise EVERY day
- stay within my points range everyday.
day 19.... i only did half of what i should... i did 1.5 miles but then i did the rest on eliptical... i think i am banded from treadmill for a while because my of my knee... l LOVE walking/running but something under me knee (5 inches under knee and to the side) didnt like about it. So am waiting for it to get better. Last night i just walking (3.7 mph) and i was soooo tempted to run... i was so close to do it. But i knew it wouldnt worth it if i had knee enjury. I will just wait a day or 2 and take it slow. Maybe walk now and run every other day

I made it through Day 6 on the smoking challenge.
Thanks, Apple, for your support!
Will try to write later. I'm in very bad shape otherwise, but am trying to, as Apple said, stretch this bit of good and have it cover other things. I have an apple cut and packed now and that's a start.

Well, it's winding down on Saturday here and my Day 7 on the No Smoking Challenge. I really want to smoke and I'm at home. I had quite gotten into the habit of relaxing with a cig at home. I have only had the one temptation when out drinking but I have a feeling that I will NOT be able to resist when and if I'm out with my regular friends, with whom I'd been smoking a lot. Sigh.
And, I'm disgusted with my weight because, surprise, surprise, I realize that, though, my weight did not drastically change, I have lost a ton of muscle and replaced it with you know what.
I almost went to the gym tonight, but turned around and came back. I was so disgusted with everything that I didn't even feel good enough to train. That is bad.
I guess I'm going to have to start small and try to be happy about small accomplishments.
I don't consider the no-smoking good at all for some reason. Somehow it's become all about fat.
The usual health things don't register. I guess I will have to think that I will look younger if I don't smoke....
I guess I can call it...
Day 7 on No Smoking completed
And I'm going to start some more challenges tomorrow....

unwanted -- Is that your daughter in the photos? She is adorable. I hope she doesn't get into cake too often like that. Otherwise, we'll find in here with us in the future.
