OK, So That Didn't Work So Well...

I guess if I'm going to plan on blogging more than once a week, I probably have to schedule it. It doesn't do much good to say it and then not make any plans to do it.

So, the goal is three blogs again this week. Today, Tuesday and Friday. Let's see how that goes.

I'm up a half a pound. Blah.

Here's why: Average daily calorie intake for this week is 2117.

On the bright side, all my measurements have gone down except my thighs, which went up.

I spent 377 minutes exercising this week.

Big Picture:

I'm down 6.4 lbs since the beginning of Summer.

My waist is down 1.5 inches.

My hips are down 2 inches.

My arms are down .5 inches.

My thighs are down .25 inches.

My average daily calories are down 82 per day. (Damn the pie-hole.)

My time spent exercising is up 244 minutes per week.

I can't tell if I'm getting stronger or faster really. My endurance is way up, I can tell that.

All things considered, I'm doing pretty good. I wanted to be lighter by now so that my foot will be in good shape to start running in October. But, just looking at the last 8 weeks, I seem to either lose pounds or lose inches. I don't seem to do both at exactly the same time. Since I've been about the same weight for the last three weeks, I think I'll probably lose a pound or two this week.

I just really need to rein in the eating. Honestly, it's mostly about being lazy. It's easier to throw a pizza in the oven than to cook veggies and chicken. And, frankly, pizza tastes better. I can make the chicken and veggies taste like pizza, but then the calorie count ends up being about the same, too. **Sighs dramatically.**

See you Tuesday.
