Forgot to post yesterday

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Hmm didn’t even weigh in.

I did have a good workout on the treadmill.  I went for 15 minutes at 4 incline and 4.5 MPH.  After that I switched to the stationary bike for 10 minutes.  After that I was done…. I have lost some endurance.

Kind of busy day.

Goodbye 2009

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

This is the last post of 2009.  Sounds sad, but it does lead to the first post of 2010.  This was an extremely interesting year.

I think my foot really is on the mend now.  Trying some new medication and I think it works.  I feel like its strong enough where I can walk fairly decent lengths but know its still tender and can hurt and I risk reinjury.

I did work out in the gym today.  Certainly not as intense as a few weeks ago.  But I think I will be running again in 3 weeks.

Still end the year off on a good note.  I am under 250.

Weight: 248.4

Trying new medication

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

I went to Doctor’s today.  Switcing medication, hopefully this will work better.

I forget how long I been like this, I think this Sunday will make 4 weeks or more.  I did work out.  The stationary bike is doable.  Certainly not as good as running.  But I guess it will have to do for now.

Weight: 253.0

On track for recovery

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

I think I’ll make it, I will be on track to start running again next week.  Hate not having much to say though.  I feel like I am just going through the motions.

Weight: 248.8

Missed Post for Yesterday

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

This is a late post for Saturday, I memorized the weight because this is the heaviest my scale can go without cracking 260.

It was a bad workout, I tried to run in the morning but my foot just hurt way too much and ended up doing only a 1 mile walk in the morning.  I did run 2 miles and walked 1 in the evening though. 

Weight was for the morning.  I will predate this post.

Weight: 259.8

Tough gym runs the past 2 days

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

I don’t like running on the tradmill like I used to.

But I do burn some calories

Check this two photos out

Also when I weighed in at the gym it was 260.

Whoa, what happened to my weight

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

I am kind of surprised at the scale reading this morning, but as usual, I am not worried.

I think the prior weight where I was under 263 were anomolies because of dehydration.

I think my true weight is 264-265.

Got a gym workout this morning, 4 miles on treadmill.  Need to find a way to add 2 miles walking.

Weight: 266.4

Switching schedules

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Life happens, got duties at work, commitments to my kids education, birthday parties.  So I am switching schedules.

Also, I am on the hook to burn an access of 1500 calories per day.  From now till I hit 250, I am going to say that my BMR is 2,300 and a mile run or walk burns 200 calories just to make calculations easier.  So if I stick to a 2000 calorie diet plus running or walking 6 miles a day, I should make it.

But I got some maintenance duties at work, my kids school function and a birthday party to attend.  I’ll figure something out.

This morning I ran a 2 mile (or 2 laps which is more than a mile each) my time was 27:05.23, gonna hit gym later.  If I do 3 miles in gym + gym work, that should do it.

Weight: 262.6

Running in the dark

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

So today I was supposed to run only 1 mile and walk 1 mile because it is  a rest day.  I ended up running the entire 2 miles.

Anyway, it is getting pretty dark, I started my run at 5:40 AM, got back about 6:20.  Kind of slow for two miles, but it was dark, and I forgot my watch so the time actually was when I left and returned to the house.  Not when I started my run, because there is some travel from my home to the route.

Anyway, working early again today, so got to get to work, but it is cool because I am going home early.

The rest of today will be a rest day.  Tomorrow will be awesome.

The weight I think is a record.  Tomorrow I hope to break it.

Weight: 265.4

Workout Schedule

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

So yesterday’s (actually today’s) late post got me thinking of my workout schedule.

  1. Monday – Gym run on Treadmill 4 miles in 1 hour.  Add another 2 mile walk.  Bus walk suffices.
  2. Tuesday – 2 mile morning run + Gym chest workout w/ 2 mile walk either outside or on Treadmill
  3. Wednesday – Gym run on Treadmill 4 miles in 1 hour.  Add another 2 mile walk.  Bus walk suffices.
  4. Thursday – Low workout day. 1 mile run 1 mile walk.
  5. Friday – Heavy workout day, 4+ AM run, Gym arms workout w/ 2 mile walk.
  6. Saturday – 4+
  7. Sunday – 4+

Yesterday’s workout was incredible, I think that is the most I ever sweat.
