On the meridian of time, there is no injustice: there is only the poetry of motion creating the illusion of truth and drama.

Fatty Ms. Fat-fat

I WEIGH 150 LBS!

This is the second time in my LIFE that I've weighed this much! Changes must be implemented immediately. I can NOT go over 150, do ya hear?! I've started working out M/W/F with some work buddies over our lunch break... but that is inconsistent. Diet must change... ugh. Not looking forward to that at all.

How am I gaining weight?! All I ever do at work is drink my fruity water! *wah* ;'( Woe is me, and woe unto anyone who offers me a doughnut.

Oh Erin, I grieve with you. I won't print the number I weigh, but let's just say we're neighbors. Sort of. If it makes you feel better, you don't LOOK like you'd weigh that number. Keep working out. You're doing fine. Set small, attainable goals. You'll get there.

I went swimming last night after work and then hit the sauna. Oooh, it felt so good... must do this more often. See you in the workout room.

ever the same, ever changing, I am e said...

I know I don't look it, but then neither do you! I hate that the meeting today has kept me from working out. I'm looking forward to getting back on track this Friday.

It takes takes daily discipline, but I've got several healthy routines that I'll share if you're interested. I found that by gradually changing eating and exercise habits and not trying to do it all at one time, they have now become routine without that feeling of having to forcfully discipline myself.
1. 30 minute aerobic workout - once or twice a day (shorter, intense workouts I think are better than longer less intense workouts)
2. 64 oz water - minimum
3. zero transfats
4. no more than 10 sat. fats
5. 25 grams fiber
6. between vegetables and fruits - add up to 2 1/2 cups
This next one I added because the 2nd job prevented me from doing my second aerobic workout in the evening. I was simply trying to keep my muscle tone, but lost some weight in addition.
7. stair climbing - Do only so many flights, then walk on a level surface until your breathing and knees get back to normal, then hit the steps again. It's amazing how many reps can be done throughout the day as you gradually build stamina. It really boosts the metabolism which burns calories. I do this on my breaks and during my lunch time at work.
