Day 114 - fallen

Oh man, I have fallen off the work-you- butt-off wagon. The only day that I really did anything this week was Monday. Wednesday I did do some strength training, and my muscles are still achy from that, but seriously...twice in one week is not much of anything. This morning, I just didn't get out of bed to go for a walk with Kathryn. No accident there, I just turned off the alarm and went back to sleep. LAME. Yep, that's me. I have been pretty good at tracking my food. Not 100%, but even when I don't track, I've been conscious of what I am eating, and not just eating when I feel munchy. This evening however, I did eat a burger and poutine at Mcdonalds. So that completely ruined a day. Was doing so good up until that point today.

So here I am right now promising that next week is going to be better. I will not sleep in. I will get to bed earlier. I will go, even if it is cold. Or at least get up and do a video work out. I'll never get anywhere if I keep this crap up. So here's to doing better next week and getting back on track completely.

In other news, When I stepped on the scale yesterday morning, the scale read 260.8lbs. First time I've dropped to that number...lets hope we see a little more of it...and then continue on down the scale.

See you tomorrow.

Day 112

Scale read 261.0lbs at 7:30am

I slept in this morning, so Kathryn and I didn't get to go for our walk. But I did spend some time doing some strength training today. I haven't been so great at getting it done since I started walking and not doing the videos, most of my videos have it worked in. I may be sore tomorrow. But that will be good.

see you tomorrow

Day 111

Scale at 7am read 261.2lbs

James wanted to go for a walk as soon as the kids headed off to school. But I wasn't ready to go. When Ella went down for a nap he asked if we could go for a walk now. I told him we would go as soon as Ella woke up. The very moment that she was awake he was asking if we could go. I told him we should have lunch first. When we were done eating lunch we got ready to go and headed out for a walk. Now when James wants to go for a walk, what he is saying is that he wants to be in charge. So he gets to tell us which way we get to go every time we come to a corner. So that is what we did. We went all over in circles and back tracking. And then he was done and wanted to get in the chariot with Ella. At which point I could pick up the pace and take advantage of the extra resistance now seated in the chariot. We made our way over to Kinsmen park and enjoyed the beautiful spring day that it was. We then headed on down past the school and said hello to the kids playing out on the playground for recess, and made our way back home. A good day.

Day 110

Got up at 6am. weighed myself, 263lbs. Went for a walk with Kathryn. It was cold(ish) -1C and the wind was blowing which cut right through my sweatpants and jacket. Spent all morning trying to warm up. As I write this I realise that I have forgotten to do some strength training, so I better get that in here while Ella is distracted.

But first I wanted to just add something. I had a nap today, and after an hour I still felt so tired and it was so hard to wake myself up. Lately, if I have a nap, it's always the same, no matter how long or short the nap is, I just can't wake up. I feel like I could just go on sleeping all day long. Now that I'm finally up I don't feel so tired. I can go on with the day, but it's the coming out if it that just feels impossible. Wonder what that's all about?

see you tomorrow.
