I am still deep into this project, so I have not been exercising each morning. Come next Monday I am going to take time each morning whether I have it or not so I can get back on track with the pilates exercises. I was feeling better when I was getting those stretching exercises in each morning.
The days are buzzing by now that I have only 3 weeks left to complete the project I am working on. I have been trying to eat less and better. With fruit in the monring, more salads and less food at dinner time. It gets tough some days when I am really hungry and the dinner is so, so good. My weigh in this week is 430.6, so a loss of 5 pounds this week. Pretty good considering I havent done much more than sit in my chair and work. The most exercise I have gotten is goin to the bathroom. The 400 pound mark is in sight now and I am hoping to get there before Christmas.
So with my upswing last week I tried alot harder this week to do thing right. I ate better and less. We even had lunch out early in the week. My weight for the week is 435.8. So I am back to where I was 2 weeks ago and looking to keep dropping instead of going back up.
I am now in the thick of things with my current work project and it has been tough to focus on anything else. I have been spending 18 hours a day working on code for this porject and I have found it tough to make time for much else. So, I have not been doing the exercises this week like I should be. I am hoping to be at a point in a week or so that I can make time for toher things besides this project. I know I should be able to take 30 minutes to do the pilates exercises each day, but I literally wake and work and spend the day working at the computer untill I cant go any longer, then sleep.
It was a busy week and things haven’t gone so good. We ate out 3 times this week and I didn’t hold back much when we did. My wiegh in for the week was 445.9, so it was a rebound of 10 pounds added on. Seems like I need to exhibit greater control when we head out to the restaurant.
So this week we had lots to get done. It was my girlfriend’s birthday and the end of the good weather. We decided to paint the front porch before it got too cold. That entailed a day out to get the supplies, which led to an outing at the chinese buffet. Not soo good for me as all my self control went flying out the window. Last friday also saw us hitting up another restaurant which had a salad and food bar. Bad, bad things happen when i go to these places. But, I keep on going. Between that and the birthday ice cream cake, it wasnt a very good week for me.
Literally. This morning I was doing my exercises and our basset hound decided he would lay down next to me on his back and join in. It was pretty funny to see. For the most part I put him outside in the morning when I do these exercises but today he was sleeping when I started so I just let him be. Guess he wants to get in shape with pilates too.
Well, even though I haven’t ventured further than the basic principles of pilates, things have gone well so far. I am enjoying the time spent each morning stretching and practicing my breathing. The session on the video only lasts for abotu 10 minutes or so, but I have extended that to about 30 minutes by adding in more of the stretches and exercises.
All in all it has been a pretty good week. My weight today is 435.9, so it has been a loss of 10 pounds this past week which makes me pretty happy.
I have finally started using my pilates video. It is well put together and has a lot of great workouts on it ranging from 15 minutes to 60+ minutes with all kinds of levels of dificulty as well. There is a really good intro which covers the basic principles of pilates. I think I will stick with that for the time being until I get the hang of this.
