Good news, I missed BL this week!  Of course, I'm sure you're wondering what insanity has gotten into me...well I was redecorating my office all weeekend and this week, between class, lab and making dinner, I've been slowly putting the room back together.  Rearranging furniture, painting, and moving back and forth trying to get supplies. 

 

My suggestion is if you are ever trying to lose weight and you've got a project to do, DON'T get all your supplies in one spot ahead of time.  LOL.  You have to keep moving from room to room to grab stuff you forgot so you're burning more calories.  Of course, you won't get the project done on time, but really, what's more important?

 

I also printed up a tracking chart.  I'm not keeping track of exactly what I eat, unless it's out of the norm for a meal (like snacking on chips or fudge, and when I did it).  I'm using this to track my routine and to get an idea of my habits and problems.  The chart is in excel and covers a six-week period to go along with the 6 week body makevoer.  I've listed boxes for times I've eaten meals, minutes I've exercised, and a weight loss, waist inches, and bmi box.  Oh, and a water box too.

 

I've got less than 5 weeks until my birthday.  and I really want to be UNDER 200 pounds by then.  So I've got to get this on back on track.  I've seen some awesome teams here in the community and I'm amazed at what you all are doing!    I don't remember who, but there's one team who gets in 3 hours of exercise a day when they do exercise and they are seeing some great results.

 

Now that the weather has warmed up I'm heading out at lunch.  No excuses.
