What did I say last week about making sure I posted more often than Wednesday....
In all fairness I do have at least two open drafts about a sentence long, writers blook took me down when I had time to write, which wasn't very often.
After week 1 of tracking my food intake online, I am more aware and slightly appalled by my diet. I will keep using the tracker at the daily plate. (Anyone else using one? Do you like it? Why?)
- Starting weight December 29, 2008: 236 lbs.
- Overall Goal weight: 140 lbs.
- Weight last week: 230 lbs.
- Weight today: 230lbs
- Amount lost this week:0 lb
Causes: I am not exactly sure, I did step up the cardio training a bit and feel my pants are looser so that seems good, maybe I gained a slight amount of muscle mass, it does weigh more than fat.
I am going to start tracking my measurements weekly to quantify if I am really getting smaller, rather than just relying on the weight number. Haven't decided to post that. Why? I don't know maybe you know enough about me.... Those that do, do you think it helps? Although I suppose if I get lost, my husband can read my blog and give a great description of me...
Excercise Goal: Aerobic exercise three times a week (full half hour), Strenghth/Yoga three times a week (at least 15 minutes.)
Food Goal: More veggies and fruits, lean meats. Main goal is to not count my exercise against my daily caloric intake. (Ie. subtracting calories for exercising and seeing if that helps me reach my 2 pound loss this week.)
Blogging goal: A tour of my town... and maybe a post about this weeks current events. One one Friday and one on Monday.
Now I am off to study and clean...

I like gyminee b/c it tracks everything. That being said, I've ignored the damn thing for weeks. It's hard to squeeze everything in, yes it is.
Definitely track your measurements. My weight is going up! But, I have lost significant inches off my waist and hips. I think we need a variety of tools to judge our progress: weight, inches, general sense of well being.
WATER WATER WATER WATER!!!!! Did I mention WATER? I agree I do so much better when I track my intake! I am a pencil paper person; but I do use the weight watchers website for good ideas and recipes!!! Keep up the good work!
WOW... I have soo much to get caught up on... how excellent that you are working towards your health goals... fantastic!!!
I will do my best to get caught up as soon as possible...

Great tracking and goals. Measurement is key. I would get so frustrated when I was dieting because the scale wasn't showing what was really happening!
You posted last week? Dang I'm not paying attention! I signed up for 50millionpounds.com, haven't been back since! But I haven't exactly started doing anything else either! I have a horrible block when it comes to exercise. My brain says, "That is hard! Don't do it!" So I don't! Good luck and 6 pounds already, that is good!
