Day 1,049 - WI Results.

Last week's weight:  158.4 lbs.
This week's weight:  158 lbs.

I lost 0.4 lbs this week.  Well, I'm not thrilled with that, but at least the scale is moving in the right direction.  And has been for the last 2 weeks.  So I can't complain, really.

I had a hard time getting myself going today.  It was one of those days where I just didn't feel like doing anything at all.  You know, like moving.  Hehe.  But I forced myself to get in the workout when all I wanted to do was sit around & waste brain cells.

But reluctantly - VERY reluctantly - I got around to changing into the workout gear and being productive.  I started with 23 minutes on the inclined treadmill.  Without AC blasting.  Because I needed to feel the sweat pouring off me.  I'm not kidding.  Then I did The Firm Calorie Killer with Nancy Tucker.  I can't even remember the last time I did this DVD.  It had fallen behind some other Firm DVDs in my TV stand, so when I saw it, I fished it out & decided to do it.  I had wanted to concentrate on cardio today anyway, so this was a timely re-discovery.  It had been forever since I did any step aerobics of any kind, so before the cool-down section started, I hit pause & added another 10 minutes of step.  Just to keep the blood flowing.  I wound up burning 605 calories.

Seriously, the sweat was unreal today.  I am not kidding.

Dinner tonight was something I hadn't had in forever - filet mignon.  I baked some kale chips with olive oil & sea salt and called it a day.  I was thinking about having steak tonight for dinner, then I saw the filet mignon in the store, and said, why not.  It was delicious!  I had to cut to cut & slice the piece in half and put the rest in a Ziploc bag in the fridge.  Tomorrow I will marinade the leftover piece & put it in the freezer for next week.

Did ok today - just ok.  Missed a serving of whole grains today, which is not a good thing.  But I did get in my other requirements, so I'll just call it even for now.

Hitting the hay soon.  Tomorrow will be a beach day, if the weather holds up.  We'll see.   The damn weather here has been so odd.  Just don't get it at all.

Off to blog stalk & then sleepy times.

Good choices!

  1. Wow, that's really impressive! You should be so proud of yourself for getting in such a crazy workout after a less than ideal weigh-in. I know lower numbers can be deflating, but you've turned them into motivation. Keep up the great work!
