Note: No workout today, but I’m okay with it because it’s a day I’ve planned with friends for a while and will be going directly from work to it… I’ll catch up on the workouts eventually and am not super-worried about it because I’m doing them consistently, still. I’ll probably make up the workouts once I get over this cold.

Workout 6

Better than yesterday, but still not at 100%. I didn’t keep very close track of what I was doing, I just mostly cared that I burned my 500 calories for the day.

Manual on elliptical (mostly at Crossramp 6 and Resistance 5, burned 200)
Hill on elliptical (Resistance varying from 1-5, burned 200)
Manual on elliptical (Crossramp 6, Resistance 5, burned 100)

Calories burned: 500

Calories burned in ’09: 3800

Calories til next pound: 3200

Fat Pound One died today!

Breakfast:

orange juice

Lunch:

about 3/4 of a Chef’s Salad out with a friend

Dinner:

orange juice – still not feeling well
handful of M&M’s

This morning’s weight: 214.6

I’ve officially lost the weight I put on over Christmas, but I’m still holding my breath, because my weight can sometimes fluctuate and go up a pound overnight even if I’ve worked out and eaten well. But for the moment, things are looking good!

This morning’s weight (I think) was 216.6. Yes. I don’t even remember what the scale said this morning. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll feel better and will get in a good workout!

Workout 5

resolutiontolove — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 02:55:54 +0000

…was grueling. I guess I really am sick, because I went to the gym with full intentions of going about 80% but still getting my calories in. Just took a shower and I’m still semi-miserable. But yay for me going and sticking through the 500! I seriously felt like quitting 10 minutes into it.

I didn’t even keep track of what I was doing (other than my calorie count), how I did it, or how long it took, but here’s a general summary:

1/2 mile at 5.5mph
walking the rest of the calories from 2.9-3.3mph(ish) at mostly an incline of 7 (different machine than usual, though- this one tops out at incline of 10)

Today’s calories burned: 500

Calories burned in ’09: 3300

Calories til next pound: 200

Thank God that one’s over.

Non-Workouts 5 & 6

resolutiontolove — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 04:45:46 +0000

So yesterday I didn’t work out because I wasn’t feeling too hot. I figure it’s alright because I can make up for it today. Today, I’m feeling worse, so I debate for 30 minutes whether or not to hit the gym. I decide that I’d better go ahead and do it, because making up for one workout is one thing, but making up for two is insane and really can’t be done in one day. But when I get to the gym, EVERY machine is being used! I’m so frustrated right now. I’ll do some abs for a bit and will check it out in about half an hour, but even so, it’ll be too late to make up for yesterday and I’ll have to move that to tomorrow!

Big sigh. Okay venting aside, maybe working out wasn’t a great idea for me today, especially working out for two days. Hopefully when I go back up there, there’ll at least be a free treadmill so I can get my 500 cals for today and can just make up for Monday during tomorrow’s workout.

Wish me luck!
