Half Way There!!
Wrapping Up Week Two
Lost four pounds so far, four more to go. I think the next two weeks might start to get a little harder.
Woke up monday at 5:45 to go to the gym and realized I was just too sick to work out. My cold was so bad, I didn’t go to work Monday or Tuesday. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to recognize the signs of over training, but blockhead that I am, I’m not going to give up. I will lose 8 lbs - of fat - by Dec 31. After binge drinking Sat, did an hour of cardio on Sunday - which is probably what put me over the edge. Took off Monday sick. Tuesday afternoon picked up my routine of 500 calories per day cardio and my 5 x 5 weight lifting routine modified to fit 25 minutes. Saturday - today - I meant to do my last workout routine for the week chest & cardio, but last night I fell ill again! Chills coughing, blah, blah. Still haven’t learned, I’m going for my goal
Did my weigh in today - only one pound for the week, but still on track for the month. Need to lose two pounds by the end of next week. That will be the real test. The mid 180’s really seem to be my resistence point.
The one mistake I won’t repeat is drinking too much this weekend. Today’s my cheat day on diet so I can have alcohol if I want but it won’t be more than one or two for the day, not seven like last saturday
All in all encouraged by the mirror, encouraged by hitting the mid point and being on target.

I hope you kick that cold and feel betyer soon Peter!
Yeah that drinking can really mess you up. We had our company holiday party last saturday and my workout parner was still not feeling right come monday and had to reschedule our workout (wimp!)
