Court,Do you have a basement in your new place?Workout area!!
Do you have weights in the basement? Belong to a gym?
Yesterday I stepped on the scale after two weeks of only kinda sorta monitering my eating and I was at my low weight still! So happy about that. I do pretty much log my food but have gone over ALOT.. I guess maybe not terribly over when I calculate my exercise.. but really, some days I had 2200-2400 calories and I still sort of lost. I do get some type of exercise ( usually running and elliptical on an active rest day) at least 6 days a week, but I was also kind of injured a bit from my fall and a pulled groin over the last two weeks.I am convinced some times that the more I eat (obviously within reason and good healthy whole foods) the more I lose or stay stable... so strange but maybe there is something to this theory of holding onto weight if you aren't getting enogh calories.I wonder if yoga is helping? I don't burn that much but maybe something about it?
I do have P90X at the house; I've done it in the past multiple times. I'm not a rockstar at it, but I do enjoy it.I've thought about CF - I've got a few good friends that are WAY, WAY into it, but it feels like such a dramatic change, and could be really time consuming. With baby girl due in 6 weeks, I'm thinking of just dropping 1 or 2 runs per week in favor of lifting heavy (at least until we get re-situated).My other concern is that weight management has always been SUCH a pain in the ass for me. As previously mentioned I have a natural inclination to being really heavy - I don't want to lose ground on all the fat I've burned, or on my speed, which is best ever.There have been lots of good suggestions, I think I just need to man up and try out something - be it P90X, CF, kettlebells, etc. Thanks to all that gave some good ideas!
Woot woot! When the weather starts to get so nice, it really is something to look forward to, to get out there! So I hit it, The Number. I clicked my WW plan over to "maintenance." I'll still track but with more points, which might be perfect timing so I can eat more with long runs going to do for the half.
Yeah, I am finding it hard to think of the state I'm in as something more than a temporary one. Weird. I guess I could start by acknowledging the state I'm in, to begin...I keep reaching for the wrong size clothes and I can't commit to buying anything, really.
