I am running out of time! My 50K is 17 days away! I feel like a cow! I must drop 10 pounds, I need to take drastic measures! This is going to be my venting page, please feel free to ignore me completly as I am going to get crazy these next 17 days.
I got up this morning and the scale screamed at me! I am at my highest weight in the last few years. I am not sharing that number with you but will report my loss daily for the next 17 days.
This morning I ran 9.36 miles on the JRP with Gary, it was beautiful, we had a nice visit and I am ready for more miles. I need to cut Paul's hair and then do another appt. and then I will get back out and get a few more miles in. I plan to go to the rec center every evening and get at least another short workout in. It stinks to get old, I eat less and better than I used to and still can not seem to drop the weight. HELP! If anyone has any tricks please share. I need to burn more calories and go to bed hungry and onery I guess.
This morning I had a green smoothie before my run. During and after my run I had some home made lowfat healthy little cookies made with quinoa, oats, whole wheat flour and flax seed)
4:00 pm update, I did a short hike with Odee on the Pipeline, bad call, I waded thru at least 6 inches of mud and slush. I ate a banana on the way up in the car. I am hoping to get in an evening work out at the gym. So far my day has been good, I should drop acouple of pounds and then that is where it starts to get really tough.
9:30pm update, I had some turkey speghetti for dinner and then did 20 min. on the stationary bike at the rec center. Today went well, hopefully I can keep this up tomorrow. |
