For my Hot 100 update, I would say score! Even with Thanksgiving factored in, I am on goal all the way around. No white bread, even when faced with the yeast rolls I love so much. A ton of veggies and even more fruit here lately. I have walked the 5 miles I planned on every day I have been off work and school. Aaaaaand I think that with my plan to counteract going over my calories on Thanksgiving, I will see a good loss come December 3rd!
I am not mad at myself over my going 500 over on calories yesterday. I wish I had kept myself in the confines, but on the other hand, I did go over deliberately, not mindlessly. And had I not gotten into the sweets, I was actually good I think. But I don't generally get sweet stuff and it all looked so good. I may be rationalizing, but you know, I KNOW by experience that one day off doesn't affect me really. I have had a couple of melt downs and never faltered getting back on plan. I can't see one good reason to be downtrodden. IN fact, I am excited. I love a good challenge, and now I am going to be working extra hard for Friday's weigh in to be a success! I did learn something today that has me thinking of changing up my workouts. I moved the treadmill into our spare room where I work out. If I am going to keep getting up at 4 or 4:30, then I am fixing to add some walking on the treadmill before I leave for work and still at Wal Mart when I drop off Lauren. I spend about an hour just farting around on the computer every morning while I drink coffee and I think that time could be better spent walking before my weight workout. I got a 5 mile walk in on it this morning, and it was great because I set it at one speed and don't slow down ever, no matter how tired I am. I liked it this morning! I knocked off 6 minutes because I had the treadle going the same speed and would not turn it down, unlike when I get tired and slow down without noticing. I can just see it now folks, 210 on December 31st!!
You are amazing Shane! You will be hitting 210 at the end of December for sure!
ReplyDeleteYou resisted the rolls. That is a success! Glad you enjoyed dinner and you're doing excellent on the exercise! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteWow Shane, you make me tired! Here I have been sitting at the computer but I don't like to walk my dog before daylight- REALLY! I am not a bread eater and can still say not a piece of bread since the end of August and truthfully, the mashed potatoes I ate satisfied my cravings. I'm trying to think of menus now- I really need to plan the next two weeks out. You will continue to do awesome- that I know.
ReplyDeleteResisting yeast rolls is tough! Good job Shane!
ReplyDeleteYou're right--one day won't slow you down, not at all! You're very focused, and a great inspiration to a lot of people. You're doing fantastically, and your Friday weigh-in will make you proud.
