New week new resolve

So I attended the last bootcamp of my session. Shaved a minute off my 1K time.  When I started a month ago it took me 9m 2s to do 1K.  My time on Friday was 8m 3s — which amazed me I was postive having done three bootcamps in a row this 51 year old [...]

Almost the end of the week

So we draw to the close of another week. After a fairly unsuccessful weekend last weekend (of course it would be a four day weekend) I hit the deck running Monday night and have eaten really well — stayed within my calorie range and even allowed myself a small chocolate sundae - but only with [...]

Time to take a breath

Well my blog I haven’t visited you for a few days.  I guess since Thursday night I sort of became a bit out of control.  I have had good and bad since Thursday lets see which I did more of.
Good - on Thursday I attended my cardio fitness class and added a 20 minute walk [...]

Tues May 15

So I concentrated yesterday and did my best to not go over my goal calories.  Missed by 56.  Total calories were 1856.  After bootcamp I was quite hungry and usually I just have a bit to eat but last night I also had a 100 calorie popcorn.  That put me up and over the 1800 [...]

Aghhhh bad weekend

So I left work on Friday not feeling very well (all the bran etc etc kicked in big time).  I hoped and hoped that I would feel better by 6 so that I could go to bootcamp but no such luck.  First thing at bootcamp was a 1 km run and then circuit training.   I [...]

End of the Week

And my oh my are my thighs hurting LOL.  I did weigh myself on Wednesday of course I figured with eating the correct calories and exercising my fool head off there is this expectation that I will see a huge loss.  Quite honestly (LOL I am talking to myself here) I was thrilled to see [...]

Rants and Vents - people ARGHHH

First before rants and vents I want to say I had another great day of eating and exercising on Monday - of course my damn body let me down this morning and I am sitting here extremely uncomfortable and all I want to do is go home — relax and let nature take its course.  [...]

Week Two starts now

Had a good weekend — took my bike out for my first ride (has to be the first time since about 1993 I was on a bike that wasn’t bolted to a gym floor.  Big thanks to my definition instructor all the lunges that she has made me do over the last few months helped [...]

Weekend is here

So I did my first complete week (sort of ) with bootcamp and eating properly.  I don’t feel like I was deprived of anything. My calories ranged from a low of 1694 to a high of 1897.  Pretty much within the range that I need to get this weight loss started again.  My calories burned [...]

End of the week — finally

So its Friday noon and it was a rather good week.  I kept my calories within my range.  Only meandered out a bit yesterday with a helping of edamame beans (200 calories).  My fitness for the week was pretty darn good.  So far this week I have done 2 nights of bootcamp (60 minutes each), [...]
