Weekly check in 4-26
Apr. 26th, 2010 11:13 amNo food list this week, because I've not been good at tracking either my food or exercise this week. I've not felt well on several levels, plus my normal routine was very, very off due to a variety of reasons.
That said, my current weight is now...233.6. That's right. The week was a wash, which I will gladyly take. Given how stressed and hurty I've been, I was fully expecting a gain. Maintaining, even under very poor conditions, is a win for me.
I'm planning to get back into my exercise routine tomorrow. I biked last Tues and Wed, but other than that did no actual "exercise" for the week. I just hurt too much, and the idea of doing thirty minutes of anything remotely strenuous made me want to curl up in a ball and whimper. I'm not actually any better this week, but if I let it go too long I'll never get back into it. So I'm going to make myself do something, even if all I can manage is fifteen minutes of that something, in five minute intervals.
And no, I'm not going to injure myself. It isn't that type of pain I'm dealing with. If anything, getting moving might relieve some of the pain. It's just a struggle to do something contrary to my hibernating instincts when everything from the waist down feels like it's caught in a vise.
I really want that two pound loss this week though, want it like burning. I try not to get caught up in the numbers game, I really do. I need to see another real loss soon, though, not just a false loss from a water gain.
On a positive note, I plan to purchase some new jeans this week. My ass is practically swimming in the old ones and I don't think I can put it off any longer.
