I hit 200 today. 200.4, to be exact. I have reached my goal ( Read more... )

The scale wasn't giving anything to me this morning: 201.0. I was hopping for maybe a 200.9, but I'm gonna have to work for it, I guess. No gifts!

No biggie. I got this.

Unexpected (and perhaps sadly ironic) that it took this song to get me through the end of my workout this morning. Ignore the weird looking rabbit:

I dipped below 200 today at home. That means I should be around 201.5 or so at the gym. If I put in a good workout tomorrow, I could break the threshold by the weekend, I hope ( Read more... )

The scale at home read 200.5, which means the scale at the gym would probably be at 202 or so. I keep making progress ( Read more... )

Today I made it back up to 400 calories on the elliptical, plus nearly my full lifting routine (minus the triceps--ouch ( Read more... )

Funny how that works: I ate a little bit yesterday and had a little more energy today for my work-out. Whattaya know ( Read more... )

Part of it has to do with how little I'm eating these day, and part of it has to do with working out every day again. I'm hoping the overall explanation has to do with the normal fluctuations in weight that can show up as statistical "noise ( Read more... )

The summer I started working at Fredericksburg--2011--I weighed 210 pounds. That was up from a low of 187 in the fall of 2010. It was great to be so slim (especially because I had, at my heaviest, weighed 260). My idea body weight, according to charts and statistics, was supposedly 178, but at 187, people thought I looked too gaunt. Looking back at ( Read more... )

The metal creak from my gym locker might've been a gasp in surprise because it's been so long since the locker has seen me. I've been running or walking in the evenings (most evenings, anyway), so it's been a while since I've been to the gym, but I finally made it back there today for the first time this semester. It felt good.
