I joined the gym’s weight loss contest today for fun. Why the hell not. I have to lose 5% of my body weight in 10 weeks. Easy. that’s like 8 pounds.

Anyway, I weighed in and was disappointed I hadn’t lost weight. No no, it’s not muscle damnit, as I haven’t lifted this week or at all since starting (at least not worth a damn). I was sore all week from my PT session so I’ve decided never to go back to PT.

I left a little late today so I only had time to do 20 mins of interval training on the eliptical and 10 minute cool down on the treadmil at 1.0 incline 3.2 pace. then i stretched. Next week (well saturday I guess) I will start lifting again. I’m only doing a lunch time workout tomorrow (Cardio) and then it’s Troika at night so we’ll see how sober I can stay   Tuesday at the hockey game I couldn’t believe I didn’t drink. Then afterwards we went to my fave spot ZOLA and I totally forgot I wasn’t drinking and ordered a drink. Then 10 seconds after I ordered my Zola martini I literally said out loud "what the ****, I’m not supposed to drink right now!" but I drank it because it was $10.

So we’ll see all that happens this weekend. Def have to step it up a notch! Need to start walking meeko in the morning to get my heart pumping for the day, wake up my metabolism, and burn a bit of sugar off. OH AND SPEAKING OF SUGAR, Damn CVS to hell and their abundence of it! Sour Patch kids are my super weakness and I’m suprised I didn’t buy a pack! My ankle is bothering me again. Most likely from my Franco Sarto boots. Gonna donate to the goodwill so if anyone wants a stellar pair of boots head to the Arlington goodwill on Glebe!

While I wait for the fat man in the office who got gastric bypass surgery to finish warming his fried chicken, I will write a blog.

Yesterday I went to the gym to get my bf tested. In order to do that, i had to buy a personal training session of 30 minutes. (Crock of shit but whatever) Anyway, Trainer and I di a bunch of f8cking leg exercises with no rest/recovery then squats blah blah blah. Anyway, I’m really sore today.

I walked on the treadmill for 45 minutes while enjoy my HGTV. I feel okay with this considering I can hardly walk. I decided NOT get any PT sessions because it does more harm then good. Maybe more 30 minute sessions but on Fridays because the weekends I’m looking for an excuse not to work out haha.

My diet is good. I’m liking these rice crackers. I wish fat man wasn’t warming like 1000 pieces of fried chicken for the past 15 minutes because I need to eat. Diet is good. Chicken is annoying the hell out of me. I need a food scale. I’m so confused. 4oz, 6oz, size of a stack of cards… what if it’s thin? then what? I’m confused more.

I had to buy a tank top at the gym today because I didn’t have anything to wear. It’s too tight lol so my fat rolls were hanging out. I’d better work faster. Saw the body for life challange and was impressed how well people did. Great motivator.

I need to remember my supplements.

I’m still mad I got fat again

OH MY GOD. What a pile of sh*t I am. I worked so hard over the past year and threw it all down the drain the past 3 months while planning and recovering from my ELECTIVE surgery. So I gained like 15 pounds (that’s including the weight of my implants, lol) and my bodyfat shot up and my midsection got bigger. For f*ck’s sake, what the hell man. I mean it’s my fault but I can’t believe I let myself do that. Shame on me times infinity.

So I met w/ a PT at the gym to do my stats and I did a quick 30 minute workout w/ him. It was painful. So not only did I get FAT I lost energy and wind in my system.

So I’m punishing myself. I’m not gonna buy any new clothes until I can fit my old Sergio jeans lol. BLAH. AAAHH. The weekend was good. I worked out and ate right. I did have a glass of wine w/ dinner last night but other than that did really well. Going to do cardio tonight. My goal at this point is to lose 10 pounds by February 1, 2009. Reading my old blogs I wonder wtf happened to me. I know that I started to drink more which contributed to my weight gain and stopped working out which contributed to the flabbiness.

I also have to work on keeping the timing of my eating. I get so caught up working cases I forget the time and forget to eat. And fruitsnacks. OH MY GOD they are my weakness. I can say no to cookies and cake but give me some fruitsnacks or gummy bears?! SHOOOOT ME! I was at the commissary yesterday and ate some gummy bears while shopping for my healthy food. And for f*ck sake, the commisary ran out of chicken so I had to get frozen "seasoned" chicken. BACK TO WHOLE FOOOOODS!!!!!

 AAAAHHHHH!! Grumpy.

Alcohol: Not condusive of my weight loss goals. if not for the caloric intake, for the laziness it brings the day after. I need to rethink my plans. Canceling my bottle table, maybe nix a few happy hours. Not sure. But I think that has to change.

 I was really sick on New Year’s Day and then didn’t want to go to the gym. I tried to get Alex up and take Meeko for a long walk but that didn’t work either. So we stayed in bed until 6pm then went to whole foods to get food. Luckily I talked him out of getting wine. We drink a lot of wine, hahaha. So I’m trying to implement that into our lifestyle. and then I ate a smaller portion for dinner but then Alex said "screw it, it’s a holiday, let’s eat the leftover icecream cake" so I did. I need to talk to him about removing the anticedents from our lives.

 I also need to make sure I eat my food at  their designated intervals. I’m stting at work right now and saying "10am oatmeal, now 10:30 oatmeal." It’s screwing it all up. Another thing that screws me up is I can come and go from my good government job as I please. So some days I roll in at 6 and stay til 6, some days I get here at 9 and leave at 5. gotta figure that out.

Day one: Not so good, but decent given the circumstances. Lesson learned for the future

Day two: I mean, I ate my damn protein shake, lol. but I fogot my lunch. Great. I need to get organized.
