I have another week until my diet kicks in.... I have a very high success rate with my "lent" diets.

This Cleanse piggy-backed with Lent should prove huge for me. I am concentrating on watching the carb intake during that time.

3 miles in 30 mins on treadmill. Walked a quarter mile warmup first. I did this 45 mins after Ella's fro yo though

Got to the gym this morning after not getting there Monday (on vacation in Nashville, TN) and yesterday (got back from Nashville late). Went five miles in 15 minutes on the stationary bike, did some weight stuff and then did half mile on the treadmill in 20 (to cool down but keep moving).

Did 2 miles on the river trail here by the house, temps were in the mid 20s, with some crazy wind at a few points, but I layered clothing and was comfortable the entire trip. Down to 252 from 276 at the first of January.

Nice job on trail run! Go easy on your ankles with those. Lots of loose stuff to twist on.

i just set a goal of 3.1 miles (a 5k) and did 3.5 in 34:45 instead

to do the mini or not...

I'll tell ya, I never imagined I could drop weight so fast by simply quitting the beer habit. Yeah, I work out and eat better now, but it's amazing how much weight 3 or 4 beers a day adds!

I was going to go to the gym today, but my stomach said nope. Now the plan is to go the next two days. Sunday I will work out in the fitness room and then get in the pool during open swim to cool off.

Update: Day 7 of Advocare 10 Day Cleanse

Stepped on the scale and I have dropped 4.3lbs!
This is impressive as I have plateaued for a long time!
(because of schedule I have only exercised 4/7 days: 1 mile of cardio & weights per session)

Updates to come...

Yesterday was the last day of my Advocare 10 Day Cleanse.
I'm pleasantly surprised by the results. Down another 1.7lbs! So, out of the last 13 days (hectic schedule), I only exercised 6/13 days.
Weightloss total: 6lbs!

I can tell a big difference in my waistline and a more comfortable feeling in my intestinal area. I feel great!
This former skeptic would recommend this to anyone! Feel free to ask me any questions you want. This program was super easy, and as you can see in this thread, I didn't do much.

Did the 2 mile trail again yesterday in colder temps and horizontal blowing snow, actually cut about an eighth of a mile off it because the hill was getting slick. Colder today, so I did 25 minutes on the elliptical. Going to Red Lobster later, and I'm limiting myself to just one cheddar bay biscuit, and some grilled shrimp.

Deadlifted 425 this week. Goal is 500 by summer and am on the path to making it happen.

 

[hoosierdoc]

Didn't have much time today so I did two miles of intervals. Ran at 6mph for a quarter, then 6.5. Did a mile of this, then a mile with 6/7mph quarters, though last one was 7.5-8mph

walked a quarter mile warmup and still did the 2.25 under 22:30.

I only got to the gym 2x last week. I've been working at a local power plant and walking a lot of stairs all day long, so that should help. I did play some tennis with my son Saturday though. I hope I do better this week.

Signed up with the local YMCA for 7 Personal Training Sessions. First one is tomorrow evening after work. Hope this can keep me motivated and get me moving! Also had a Sleep (apnea) study done as that may be part of my nderlying constant exhaustion.

Plan to use the PT sessions to get me 7 weeks into a regular work-out plan, tehn may buy another 7, etc.

Walked 1.5 miles in the bitter cold over lunch today. Did 10 miles on the bike at the Y after work.

I'm down 1.6 lbs this week over last. Nice to see I'm heading in the right direction after staying pretty steady the past few weeks. I've been eating a lot cleaner by prepping fruits and veggies on the weekends. Having everything pre-cut and bagged makes it a lot easier to pack them in my lunches for work.

good job guys.

I've been eating better and hitting the gym every night at work. I fell better than I have in two years.

Nothing like straining a Glute while having no clue how you did it. It hurts to sit, stand, walk...guess it's time to contact my masseuse. Going to try to workout around the pain in the meantime.

Today was rough. I'm going to keep pushing past it. Went up 10lbs in all arms work today!

Walked a mile on the treadmill at work today on lunch break.

Walked a mile on the treadmill at work today on lunch break.

Nice way to sneak in some exercise!

i ran two miles today. Was hoping for more but just didn't feel all that good. My wife ran 3.5 and could have gone further.

I started with my trainer on Tuesday night. Have another session with him on Saturday, then it will be once a week for the remaining 5 sessions. I need to get a workout, probably treadmill in today, and maybe something tomorrow. My plan will be to do a w/o on Tuesday/Th and trainer on Saturday. Other days, I will target some treadmill/bike or swimming time at abput 30 minutes initially.
