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
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
I ran a 4+ today as scheduled. Unfortunately I forgot to start the stopwatch.
But it is getting darker. Daylight is getting scarce and it is about to get worse. Fall equinox is in 2 days and it will be worse.
Anyway, on a brighter note, I today is a special day. It is the 3 month mark of my training. I will publish a special page today, on my status.
Weight: 263.0
This is a late post but I did run a 4+ earlier today. Decent time, 53:37, it would have been a new record if it weren’t for 2 fairly long stop lights.
We went to the Puyallup Fair yesterday. Boy did I pig out on earthquake burgers, fries, ribs, corn, bar b q chicken, elephant ears, ice cream. Man I was full.
I thought it would have an extremely negative impact on me today. It did in that when I woke up, it felt like I was drinking last night and my stomach was upset.
To my surprise, my weight was decent, and this is official. New record, pretty sure. If I crack 258 by next Friday, I would say my chances of making weight is better than good.
Weight: 262.0
Ran another 4+ today, I had a pretty good time, the fastest since I started timing it with my watch, 51:31.
I think I did go under 50 minutes once, but today I will call this the record because the other was timed with my blackberry which did not give seconds.
I still have more to go today because I have a gym session.
Today’s weigh in is a record as well. But here is the cavaet, I feel dehydrated. So if I am going to make my 250 in 5 weeks, the weigh in is gonna probably be when I am dehydrated.
But in 5 weeks, even at 15 lbs away I can still make it… cool thing is… I am not 15 lbs away.
Weight 263.2
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
Well I am worked out at the gym again this morning, hence the late post.
I did jump on the gym scale and lo and behold it said 262.
Alas, tis not official. My weight before workout today which is official is
Weight: 268.4
So yesterday’s (actually today’s) late post got me thinking of my workout schedule.
Yesterday’s workout was incredible, I think that is the most I ever sweat.
Weight: 268.4
I went off my normal routine yesterday and ended up working out at work.
So this is a late post and you will see one in a few minutes after my AM run, but the weight is yesterday’s weight.
I did weigh myself on the scale after work and it did show 265.
Weight: 268.4
So the football season is starting. It is going to start affecting my workout shedule since I am a football junkie.
Anyway, late workout again. I ran a 4+ today, I thought I was gonna have a crappy run but it turned out all right.
My time was a respectable 55:47
We did eat out today and I seem to be eating a lot lately. I know this will effect me schedule. But today’s weigh was surprising.
Weight: 266.8
