Back At Full Strength

September 14th, 2008

After being sick (and swamped with work), I’m back and ready to resume my weight loss.

This week, I want to be consistent.

I want to focus on getting enough sleep, getting enough exercise, and eating (just) enough calories.

I also plan to get back to my blogging, daily.  I’ve really missed writing.

This week’s goals -

Go to gym FOUR TIMES.

Eat less than 1800 calories, each day.

Get SEVEN HOURS sleep, each night.

Avoid junk food and empty calories.

Focus on healthy proteins, fruits, and vegetables.

Busy And Sick

September 8th, 2008

I’ve been very, very busy with work… and I have a terrible sinus infection.  It’s hard to exercise when my head feels like a cinder-block.  Hopefully, I’ll feel better tomorrow.

I have an appointment with the dietician at the gym, scheduled for next week.  I recenlty had some blood work done, and I’m excited (and a little nervous) about viewing the results.  I should find out my cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

I’ve really, really missed going to the gym, and I hope to be able to go Wednesday.

I don’t have a whole lot to write about, but I did want to check in, just to let you all know that I’m still alive.

Sneeze, cough, sneeze, sneeze, cough.

Rock on.
