Movie night

wt. 245.4

I didn't walk today. I have walked 3 or 4 days in a row, so I took the day off. Went to the office at 9, and worked til 4:30. Did take some time off to drive my mom home from the rehab place. Now that she is home, my evenings should be a little easier.

I had another great smoothie for breakfast, and some honeydew for lunch. When I left work, the mrs., and 2 offspring left to meet a nephew and his girlfriend for pizza. Once again, I was only a spectator. That was fun! Then we all left to see "Horrible Boss". It was pretty raunchy, and not as funny as it should of been. After that we went to RED MANGO. That is a frozen yogurt place, wher you serve yourself frozen yogurt, and then put various toppings on it. You pay by the weight. I fixed myself a nice big bowl of blueberries, mangos, rasberries, blackberries, and kiwi. I DID NOT have any frozen yogurt underneath it. I was starved, and it really hit the spot. Home and in bed by 11:30 (too late for me).

Two a days

Wt. 249.2

am: 60 min walk, 3 miles

pm: 40 min bike ride, @5 miles

I ate a banana, a peach, and a plum on the way into town. I had a nice 60 min walk there. Lunch was a nice assortment of fruit. When I got home, I went for a nice, hot bike ride. I havn't found my odometer yet, so I had to estimate my mileage. But on my country rodes, that isn't too dificult, with all the roads being a mile or a half mile apart.

Dinner was a broccoli, red onion, red pepper, cauliflower, and cherry tomato salad, with homemade raw italian dressing. It was a very nice change of pace, and really hit the spot.... thanks Mrs.

My first day of excercising twice a day went well. Hopefully I will feel that way tomorrow morning when I wake up.

Day off

Wt. 248.8

no walk

Today I got the weigh in I was expecting Sunday or Monday. I did't walk today, and it felt good to be lazy in the morning. The Mrs. made me a great smoothie for breakfast, as well as she cut up some veggies for lunch. I also had a nice bag of cherries for lunch. Dinner was a whole honeydew. I was going to stop at half of it, but it was so good, I just kept right on going.

2 week weigh in, 21.8 lbs

wt. 251.0

walked 60 min, 3 miles

I was disappointed in todays two week weigh in. The two week weigh in wasn't bad, but the last week was actually less than 3 pounds. I know that after 18 ponds the first week, I was going to level off, but the last 3 days have not been good to me on the scale. The walking has been going good. I will not walk tomorrow, as I have been 4 days in a row now.

Diet wise, today was good. I had a smoothie for breakfast, and a plum and 12 raw almonds for lunch. Dinner was 1/2 of a very mediocre cantelope. I am glad this miserable 3 day weekend is over. I am very tired of watching everyone else chowing down on great meals, and me not joining in.

Back on track

wt. 252.6

walked 60 min, 3.0 miles

I was very surprised by todays weigh in. I gained a half pound since yesterday, and 2 1/2 pounds in 3 days. Maybe there was a bunch of salt in yesterday's dill pickle. Whatever the case, I need to get back to totally raw. I am not worried about the short term fluctuations. I know I am on the right path, and must just keep plugging along.

I had a very good day food wise. I had a small honeydew before my morning walk. Lunch was a banana, plum and small apple. I sat eating nothing at a lake grill out, and later sat through a "dessert" birthday party. Dinner was a small container of red resberries. For a snack right before bed, I had another small honeydew.
