February 05 February 5: Bummed.So, the entire month of January, I was all about working out, breaking a sweat, and being active...However, sometimes life throws us an unavoidable curve ball. I was in a car accident a few months ago and experienced some discomfort in my back following the accident. I kept my cardio work outs to the elliptical trainer (per doctor's orders). I didn't lift weights for a month, and when I started, I kept it light. My back started to tighten up again, so I skipped weights for another few weeks and stuck to the cardio. Well....about that curve ball. While doing the simplest of tasks (pulling on a sock of all things!!) I seem to have aggravated the muscle that was bothering me after the accident, so now I'm taking muscle relaxers and in non gym status for a few days. I just feel SO lazy, and I can see that my diet is slipping as well. A good workout always seemed to take away my appetite and keep my spirits in check. I dislike feeling "blah" (which isn't a great description OR very accurate), but I WANT to be at the gym. I WANT to remain active...but I can't. How ironic is it that the one time in my life where working out has become a routine is also coinciding with the EXACT time where a doctor has limited me on what I shouldn't do at the gym or physically. Irony. Irony. Irony. I don't even want to know how my weigh in will go tomorrow..... January 23 Week 3 Weigh InSo, this was by far the hardest week, and as hard as it is to admit, I gave in to several temptations. My brother in law turned 30, so there was this huge party...with 4 cakes (yes, four), rice, beans, potato salad, and delicious delicious delicious shredded beef. I gave in....but I also gave in the next day and the next day....to smaller and smaller degrees as each day went on. I'm surprised my weight even managed to go down the ALMOST pound because I did so poorly for several days. My only saving grace is that A. I continued to work out B. I understand and totally own up to what I've done. C. I realize that it just WAS NOT WORTH IT!! I keep thinking "Hmmm....if I was able to lose .8 lb, how much would I have lost if I HADN'T messed up those few days??? My frustration is not something I care to repeat. On a lighter note, I am loving the gym. I feel great...although tired. I feel like my body is FEELING different or looking ever so slightly different...but I can't necessarily pinpoint what's tighter/firmer/smaller, etc. It's just a good feeling. I have manymany pairs of jeans in my closet that I can't wait to slip on. So week 3 might've been filled with some slip ups, but I am in this for the long haul. January 12 I'm GAINING weight!! What???Okay....I
know I shouldn't be doing this, BUT I've been weighing in every morning
since my Official Weigh In Day (Wednesday). And I've been gaining
weight!!! I went up to 190, and this morning I was 191.4. I don't get
it. I've been doing MORE cardio. Lifting MORE weights. And I would say
that I'm watching what I eat even more. Is it because I'm not watching
my sodium intake? (I don't add extra salt. I drink 64 oz. of water a
day.) I'm eating pretty healthy and watching portions. Am I eating my
breakfast too late? I try to work out first and wait a bit before I eat
my first meal. I'm just getting frustrated. I don't get how if I'm
doing so well compared to how I was doing before the challenge, I can
still be gaining weight. I just reallyreally hope that I don't hit that
"forget this whole thing" frustration level and give up. I'm thinking
this is going to be a really bad weigh in week. Yuk. Okay, well off to
the gym anyhow. WISH ME LUCK! GO SEATTLE SEAHAWKS!!! January 09 Valeria: Week 1 Weigh InSo I had my Week 1 Weigh in this morning, and I weighed in at 189.4. (4.2 lbs. loss) I was really surprised even with a midweek peek at my weight a few days ago. I guess I never thought it possible for me to lose 4 pounds without some extreme fad diet like Atkins. Who knew healthy eating and exercise worked??? (j.k.) =) This is definitely a motivator for me to keep at it before I return to work next Monday, which will be a definite challenge...being stressed, being tired. I haven't had those factors so far. I'm just really happy/excited/proud for this 1 week improvement; I already texted my closest friends to let them know! :) YAY!! January 05 Valeria: No more late naps!!Okay, so I spoke WAY too soon. Today was hard...really hard. Sometimes my appetite just kicks into full gear, and I want to eateateat. I didn't do as well as I would have liked, but I only went one calorie over the range given to me by sparkpeople.com. I can't expect to be perfect, but isn't it too soon to be struggling?? I guess I just have to keep at it. Also, I guess it COULD have been worse, and I should be concerned with making improvements, making better choices, and learning to make permanent changes to my life. (Went to the mall, and USUALLY I would have gotten Sbarro's stromboli and 1-2 breadsticks. Instead, I opted for a teriyaki chicken bowl with veggies and steamed rice. Didn't finish it.) My vice for today was taking a nap because I always wake up from a nap wanting to eat in order to wake myself up. I had already had dinner (late nap), so I had a bagel and cream cheese. *Sigh* Not what I would have wanted, but I can definitely chalk it up as a learning experience. No late night naps?? :) |
Songs I listen to that get me in calorie burning mode. =)
