I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...
diaryofthefatman.blogspot.com
I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)
I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!
I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?
Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.
I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.
Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

Cool dipping veggies into the fondue. Too bad the Frenchies are so traditional in regards to what "should" be dipped into that cheesy sauce--meaning ONLY EVER WHITE, somewhat dried crusty bread cubes.
Thanks for the idears.

I love to eat. Carbs is my weakness link that I always lose control in front of it.
I started running for fitness in 2007. Ever since I finished the 1st marathon (San Diego RnR 2007), I am addicted to running.
I started traineoing in Nov 2007. I have reached my goal weight in Jun 08 already. But, now, I don't care much about my weight. I care about it only if it affects my running performance.

B: peanut butter 2 tsp, banana - 1, soy milk 1, orange /2
S: almond 0.5oz, atkins ganola bar 1/2, apple 1
L: Japanese chicken cold noodles (raman, bean sprouts, cucumble, egg, soy/mustard sauce) 1 huge full plate (finished 75%) , stream mustard greens 1 plate
S: almond 0.5oz, baby carrot 1/2 cup
D: roasted pork 2oz, brocolli salad 2 cup, pineapple 150g
I gave myself B- today. The lunch was too much. Raman is simple carbs. But, I did manage to have good amount of protein in each meal and less than 3 servings of fruit today though.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm... RAW PEAS... ALREADY SHELLED... 
I'm eating a huuuuuuge bowl right now and I'm loving them!
As a wee one I used to get busted in the pea patch a LOT, (our own, and even the neighbors', teeheeeeeeee...)
Much preferable to cooked peas, in my rodenty-nibblin' opinion.

B: hard boiled egg 1, egg white 1, apple 1, hot cocoa 1/5 cup (My company has a new coffee machine that serves hot cocoa. Everybody said it is much better than the old machine. I just want to taste it. Still too sweet to me though.)
S: deli ham 2, baby carrot 200g
L: Panera pick 2 combo (Salmon salad, turkey chickpea chilli soup), wholegrain baguette 1 oz
S: hard boiled egg 1, almond 0.5 oz, apple 1
Pre-WO: raw oatmeal+applesause 1/2 cup
Post-WO+D: Baked chicken 2 oz, snappeas 1 cup, pineapple 100g, peanut butter 2 tsp, baby carrot 50g
~1500 cal for today.
I gave myself grade B+ today. No coffee and sample bread at all. Green tea and water only for the whole day. Move heavy protein in each snack. The only fault is the 1/5 cup of hot cocoa and 1 oz of wholegrain baguette.

I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...
diaryofthefatman.blogspot.com
I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)
I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!
I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?
Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.
I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.
Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

Words to live by: "Now's the time to grab the steering wheel of your life. Delve deep within yourself and take responsibility for your health and behavior. Ask yourself hard questions and face the truth of what needs to be done. Weight loss is not always easy or fair but you are the only one that can lose weight for you. Take a turn for the better!"
Goals:
1) Lose ~45 pounds
2) Work out at least 6 days a week
3) Eat healthier consistently
I will reward myself at the following weights: 240, 235, 230, 225, 220, 215, 205, 200, 195, 190
I will reassess my goals after I have met the above goals.

Started going to the gym 2/2008. Doing mostly cardio / elliptical. I am shooting for looking drastically different by August for my wife's family reunion. My ultimate goal is to be 180 by the end of December.

Cardio, im having a problem with eating a spoon of sugar in the morning with my oatmeal+ milk. As soon as i eat it, i suffer from the horrid sugar induced blood levels crash and feel so fuzzy headed! So from today i added a spoon of natural peanut butter and some almonds to include protein and some good fats. It tastes ok since i eat it with toast but im never going back to sugar.

I too go crazy on my PMS days. However, you are eating super healthy so it will only help you

Heheh, well, my day isn't over yet, RAHHHHHR!
Oh, and check out "Steviva", I have a wee jar from this company and while it's a tad hard to get a good handle on dosages due to its incredible potency, it sure beats the hell outta aspartame and its friends.

The Steviva sounds good. Im just not comfortable using sweet and low everyday in my oatmeal since i use 2 of those in my coffee anyway. It would be a bit too much. Will try the honey and if that doesnt work...then Steviva !!
Hope you have a smooth day ahead Minu...whatever is left of it!
