Another day in the books and feeling ok about it. For me my calories are fine especially with no cardio last night. I got into another good game with my daughter and had a good time. Tonight however I will be back at the cardio. My diet still needs to be cleaned up some and I'm thinking the start of a new month right around the corner is a good time for that. My scale weight was up a half pound from yesterday and perfectly normal for me. 

Well, back to work, have a great day.

Last night I decided instead of doing cardio, I hung out with my daughter playing Mario on the WiiU we got her for Christmas, we had a good time. My weight is down another pound and that's a total of 12 pounds for January so far. My sleep is still not consistent so it might be time to start taking a Benadryl before bed to knock me out. All in all things are moving along and I'm feeling good. Time to get back to work.

Have a great day.

Well the 200s are here for my weight even if it's just a half a pound.  I'm feeling good but I know the next ten pounds coming off is going to feel even better. I really pushed myself last night on the on the Elliptical and it felt great, I know it's just the Elliptical machine but raising the intensity was the goal. 

I've been debating a lot over the last few days whether or not I want to even start running again. My goal was a full marathon that I never reached and it's always been in the back of my mind. Hmm....still need to figure out if that's the direction I want to go or not. Time will tell. Have a great day.

Well back to the grind happy Monday!

It's a nice quiet morning for once here at work and I'm enjoying it. Today will be filled with clean eating and a good cardio session. I finally feel great to really be dialed in....finally. My wife made brownies and muffins this weekend and I didn't touch a single one of either. My diet can still be tightened up some as I'm still eating too much sodium and I also need more veggies but that will come as I continue to adjust.

Have a great day.

Wednesday is my rest day from cardio and I enjoyed that time with my family. Got on the scale this morning and I'm down another pound and getting close to busting into the 2's so that's keeping me motivated. Also I'm starting to really clean up my diet and today will be a lot less sodium and a lot less sugar. I'm eating 6 meals a day and here is today's breakdown...


MEALS CALORIES
Breakfast Meal 1: 400 
Breakfast Meal 2: 158
Lunch Meal 3: 310
Afternoon Meal 4: 200
Dinner Meal 5: 570
Evening Meal 6: 240

I will probably work on spreading those out better as I move along but for now I'm not going to worry about that. Right now I'm working to just clean up what I'm eating. Tonight will also be more cardio. 

Have a great day...
