Did you notice???

Did you notice my little tracker on the side of how many miles I've done between cycling and walking?? I am almost to 100!!! Tomorrow we do another 2.5 and I'll be like .17 short so I'm gonna cheat tomorrow and put it down as 2.67 because I like nice round numbers -- ah heck I just like round, it's my favorite shape apparently.
Yes I'm weird but I'm pretty excited about that. I need to figure out how many miles were just walking. But in 4 weeks I did 100 miles not too shabby for someone who hates any type of excercise :)
Ok so I just checked it looks like we are just under 39 miles as of today. Pretty cool if I do say so myself.
Yes I am a nerd but I have to have mini goals or I won't make it longer than this week, which could still happen.

Let the grumbling continue

grr... it's about time I got mad at this exercise thing. :) But seriously, I've lost 5 lbs and my pants are too stinking tight. WTF(udgecicle)!!! I made mention of this to a co-worker who stated that she could see that I have lost weight but in my back/side area. Hoss told me yeah he could see it my face but noticed that I'm bigger in the stomach. Oh and that the weight was just shifting! Really -- shifting?? Where if it's gone, it's gone right? Apparently not.
I can't afford to purchase new pants for work and play and it's not just blue jeans it's my work pants. **grumble, grumble, grumble**
I rarely drink a coke (pop, soda for people in other parts) so I know it's not that unless it's that maybe one/two a week that I may have. hmm... maybe it's stress... what else keeps weight in the middle besides genetics???

Another 1/2 bites the dust

Today was the weekly weigh-in and surprisingly another 1/2 lb is gone :) I'm happy because I'm not really trying here. Just strolling along **bad pun intended** I'll update the tracker when I get home from work but it will be showing 5 lbs down! Can't complain for how I eat and if I would pick up the excerise it might be more but... not happening right now.
On another note, I don't know if LeCrete noticed today but we did our 2.5 miles in no more than 55 minutes!! I'm not quite sure exactly what time we started but I know it was after 6:05 and I was in my car by 7! Stoked on that and we didn't really try :) Maybe by Friday we can have it down some more.

I was bad

So it's the start of week 4 I believe. Feels like week gazillion... wait no that's not true by then I would hope I would be in a non-round shape. But I was bad -- Friday came and went and I did no walking :( In my defense, I overslept and I felt terrible. Still had to go to work so I probably should have walked.
Seriously! I thought excersing was supposed to make you feel better -- sooo not happening right now. Again in my defense, I am a little stressed. Nothing I can talk about right now **maybe tonite *fingers crossed***
But I did get up and walk with LeCrete our now normal 2.5 miles in our hour time frame. Next week we should be bumping it up to 3 but I'll be on vacation and I'll be struggling to figure out how I'm gonna get some decent excerise in and if I care.
Back to stressing!

Weight in

Whelp it's Tuesday and I can happily say I've lost and maintained 3.5 lbs! and the scale was down the 1 I gained last week :) So I'm excited because I was not expecting it.
We walked 2.5 miles today in about an hour so I'm excited over that. All in all, I can't complain today aside from being soooo sleepy. But eventually I'll get used to it!

Week 3 changes

Decided to change it up for the next couple of weeks. Walking will still happen, in fact I believe we are going to increase our length. Actually I think we did it today but shh, don't tell anyone :) We lost track (AGAIN) of how many laps but time-wise it was over our normal 8 lap time so we must have done 9. But I'm cutting off the cycling for a while.
I've been exhausted for the past 4 days and not in the mood to, so I'll let it go and just focus on the walking and getting my sleep. Hoss says it's probably more of the getting up at 5:30 that's doing it but whatever, I wanted to quit it so I will. It's also just too hot do it anytime but mornings and unless I'm getting up at 5, I don't have time. And I'm not getting up at 5 just yet.
Plus there is another reason that I can't get into just yet that has me not in the mood to do it.
Tomorrow is another weigh in and I'm not thinking good thoughts about it. I think after a weekend of cake and cokes it won't be favorable but we'll find out in the morning.

Hmmm...

So the link sort of worked just didn't show my details. Sorry it's blurry but herre it is -- you can see enough :)
Anyways. Today is a struggle. I promised myself that I would bike but I'm not seeing that happen anymore. I'm tired and my head is kind of hurting. But who knows maybe after I finish my second job.
Yesterday was also bad in the end. I did nothing but eat and was pretty darn grumpy not to mention clumsiness. Still grumpy and a clutz, but I think it's just sleepiness.
