I finally got through my weight loss hump, well sorta. I kept hovering around various numbers, and my weight loss/exercise program kept telling me I was below my calorie target, which could be causing this. Not much I can do really, I retrained my stomach to eat less, I have been doing a lot more exercise and when it’s hot as hell I don’t usually want to eat that much. Anyway, today I made it to 159. Woohoo! I’m sure tomorrow I’ll be back up to 160. It took me a few days of back and forth with 169 too I remember.
I’m going to need new shorts pretty soon, because the ones I have now (which I just bought in April!) are falling below the equator. I’m not sure about jeans, since I haven’t tried any one recently. Oh and no, I don’t want to show my undies to the world as I don’t think it’s “cool,” especially for someone (well) over the age of 18.
Tomorrow will be my last day on week three of that PodRunner Intervals thing. I should actually move forward to week 4, and I may. However having listened to the running verses walking routine on it, I’m scared! It’s mostly running for long stretches with brief periods of walking in between. I knew it was coming, but just like a doctor’s appointment, I dread doing it.
Tomorrow is “Mamma Mia” and I’m so excited! It looks like I’m going to see “Dark Knight” the week after. I think the last movie I want to see this summer is the new “Mummy” movie.
Oh I finally did get that damn iphone last night, and the case arrived this morning, so I can actually take it out of the house without fear of dropping it and destroying it totally. So far so good. It does take getting used to, and it took me a while to figure out how to get everything I wanted on there and working they way I wanted it to. Now I’m basically just waiting for the WordPress App to come out (it was supposed to be out 2 or 3 days ago) so I can blog with it if I so choose to.
Congrats on the under 160 mark!! You actually may just inspire me to download that damn podrunner thingy after all. And that really sucks! I’m going to see “Mamma Mia!” with some girls from work and I can’t wait! Hope you get your phone up and running the way you want it soon.
Congrats! Be careful if you’re wearing loose shorts and move forward to week four! Keep up the good work.
Oooo. I think I would opt for the Dark Knight over “drama rhea”. But if you can successfully channel your inner menopausal woman looking back with nostalgia on times with her best gal pals… then you should like it just fine.
Congrats on the weight loss! I’ve had to buy new clothes recently too, which is a nice feeling. I don’t have the money for a completely new wardrobe though, so belts are really coming in handy! How hard has the running been so far, and how far do they have you running now? Between being sick and tweaking out my knee, I haven’t been able to run lately, and I miss it!
Week three has you running about 9 minutes and walking maybe 20. It’s something like run 90 seconds, walk 90 seconds, run 3 minutes, walk 3 minutes; then it repeats. There is a 5 minute warm up and cool down.
Week four is like run for 5 minutes, walk for 90 seconds, run for 3 minutes, walk for 2 minutes; repeat
I have yet to start week 4. I haven’t run since Wednesday myself. I wanted to go yesterday but didn’t feel good and today I woke up with a kidney stone.
I will probably do Week 3 one last time and then g to week 4
