The Health Nut Thread

[Robino1]

I guess I should jump in an join you all here. I have picked up 40 pounds since I quit smoking almost a year ago. I don't blame the quit smoking for my weight gain but just simply filling my face with junk junk and more junk. I feel that if I can quit smoking for a year then I can eat healthier for this next year. My weakness is potato chips but lately I have been eating more than that for junk food. Not sure what my plan is just yet for getting active but I do know I am going to eat healthier this year. As for today I painted 2 bedrooms and tomorrow doing a third one. That's gotta take care of some calories.

So I ended up doing a couple (2) miles anyway. I was sitting looking at the calories I had left for the day and wanted a little snack last night.

Did the miles, didn't eat the snack. Weight..... no gain...no loss.

Calorie budgeted for today: 1228 Yesterday's budget: 1235
Metabolic rate for today: 1564 Yesterday's rate: 1571

The program is probably scratching its head thinking what's wrong with this chick.

Anyway.... the next few days are going to be killer >_<

Goal: 4 miles elliptical
Figuring out what the heck to make for dinner tonight. I don't want leftovers since I am making a big dinner and plenty of leftovers for the next few days. I don't want to make fish since that will leave a smell in the house for days. ugh.

I will figure it out

[Robino1]

Big C. I am sweating. I normally don't sweat.

Sweating is good Robin. Make it a goal every day.

3 mile run, 1 mile walk

. Used my friend's treadmill. Wasn't braving the 30's with 15mph wind.

Sorry to be mia for awhile. Life is busy around the holidays. I have been averaging 13,000 steps a day and working with the home gym which I can only do a few times a week as it's so DAMN boring. I'm a horse girl. I need to be outside so I picked up a volunteer job for 2 hours a day and I'm picking 16 paddocks and turning in 16 horses. I'm now pushing 25,000 steps a day and I'm eating EVERYTHING but mostly good food. I would say 80% raw right now,

I've been a really good girl with food for the last few months so tonight I had seafood (crab and lobster) and tomorrow I'm having ham and a turkey dinner. I'm going to eat my face clean off, I swear. I think I've lost a few pounds but I haven't moved a belt loop on the size 6 jeans yet so I guess it's not 10 pounds yet?

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone. It's after 11, I'm drinking wine and I've lost my 9 year old son to a PS4 he got as an early Xmas present. sigh. Why didn't I buy it sooner? So just kidding.

I'm taking the day off today and tomorrow. I will try to control myself and not overeat.

Merry Christmas!

I'm not trying. I'm stuffing my face until no more can fit in.

2 new pairs of Nike tempo running shorts and a new running shirt, score!

Not talking about today's calorie consumption..

 

[Robino1]

I'm not even stepping on the scale tomorrow.....

That's all I'm gonna say about that.

I couldn't help myself and stepped on the scale this morning. 138.2 which is a heck of a lot better than I thought it would be.

Warmer today but the wind is blowing about 20 out of the south. Think I'll get my kiddo to come pick me up and not run back against the wind.
