TOTAL CRAZINESS!!!!

This week has sucked majorly on this front. Back from vacation and I know I gained weight (whoopie) and I only walked three times this week! What in the world!! In my defense though, Wednesday I just couldn't get up (literally Hoss punched me and I wouldn't move) and this morning... well I didn't hear the alarm, I went to bed wishing I could throw up and woke up at 3 a.m. wishing someone would take my head off to releave the pain (stupid weather). But nonetheless, totally discouraging.
But no that's not what is crazy. Actually that's par on course for me (maybe even a birdie or eagle).
No what's crazy is what I'm thinking of doing and have agreed to do (which means I will because I ALWAYS keep a promise to someone else). I decided to go with Hoss and do this silly Couch to 5K thing. See Hoss likes to do 5K but stays out of shape. Me I think running is stupid -- always have and always will. Fanatic are complete and utter idiots. But it's the best way to lose some weight and something Hoss and I can do together (and get him ready for his 5K -- and btw he hates running also just likes competing).
And I'm in the mood to prove to some dillweeds that I can actually lose weight. I know there are some out there since I've been at this since I gained the stinking weight and so far the only result is added weight.
So yeah, starting maybe tonight we will be doing this on top of the walking and biking.
TOTAL CRAZINESS!!!!!

Yep, I didn't

Sorry Walking Buddy, I totally just didn't get up this morning. I'm soo exhausted! Hoss, even tried to wake me (and I think he may have punched me at that) but I wasn't budging. Not so good of me I know but a month+ later, I'm still not used to this early morning bull. I can go on no sleep, stay up all hours and function normally but don't ask me to wake up earlier than my normal 7:30/7:45/8ish. It doesn't seem to work for me. But I'll try to keep sluggishing through it. I think after I complete my G-work tonight, I'll be hopping on the stationary bike to make up for it.

My not so normal Tuesday

So normally I would weigh in today but you know... that's just not happening. I snuck in a weigh in yesterday and decided we won't go there :) What can I say? Last week was all about vacation and my birthday!!!! We ate well and didn't exactly exercise. Now one day we did -- I biked for 20 minutes -- and we did do a good bit of walking. but let's face it, I gained weight and I'm not willing to admit how much.
So I started back in the walking this week and brought an new buddy!! Hoss has finally gotten up and going for a run while we walk. But so far we hadn't made it back up to our 2.5 much less the 3 we should be doing. Oh well. tomorrow determines if we have to move our time up or if school is going to mess with our routine. I'm hoping we will be good but we'll see.
Oh I did get a new dress that I can NOT wear. I know right! But it's gorgeous and I'm gonna have to use it to motivate myself to fit into it. I'll post a pic of it soon.

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!
