Been a while…

yeah so it’s been a while, I think I have missed a few weekly weigh ins, but don’t worry I am still keeping track of my weight loss (or lack there of).  That is why I plan now on using a website I found called www.fitday.com  Really cool site, you should check it out if you are interested in losing weight.  So I plan on trying to keep a very accurate food journal of what I eat to ensure that I am not going too high on my calorie intake each day so that I will continue to lose weight.  I’m also still doing the weight watcher’s thing and it works really well, it’s all these small snacks that I end up munching on during the day that I think are killing me.  So once I get started I should start to see some great weight loss again.  I’m also planning on starting to lift weights, I will start next Monday since it’s tough for me to get into the gym on the weekends.  I am also thinking about trying to train for the marathon again, maybe I can make it past 12 miles this time around.  We will see I guess.  I’m trying to think if there is anything else I need to talk about.  Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week, and will talk to you later.

Leave

A huge thing happened today.  Well, besides the typical work and getting very important people mad at me.  I was able to approve my very first leave request.  I know, a very small thing that most people do so often and have done so many times that they don’t even realize they are doing it.  However, it was my first time to actually approve leave for one of my troops.  I thought it was exciting and since I have nothing else to write about on the blog I figure it still works pretty well for the time being.  Now it is time to get ready, for dinner tonight, Taco Salad!  Home made of course, so it’ll be a little more healthy than what you get at the store.  I hope everyone continues to have a great week.

Weekly Weigh-in (257.6)

Change from last week: -3 pounds
Difference from goal: +1.8 pounds

So I say some good weight loss this week, 3 pounds, that is awesome.  I hope that I can keep this up for longer than just 2 weeks this time around.  I am not sure if I posted my weekly weigh-in from last week, unfortunately for whatever reason I was up about 1.5 pounds which is why after losing 3 pounds this week I am over my goal by 1.8 pounds.  That is okay though if I can maintain this weight loss for 3 more weeks I will be back on target which shouldn’t be tough, right?  Okay so I will give myself an extra week in there of four weeks to get back on target.  It is a little disenheartening to have a bad week early on but I won’t let it get me down, I will try and identify what I did incorrectly and do better this week to ensure that I don’t make that same mistake again.  Right now what sucks is that my sink in the kitchen is backed up and I haven’t had a chance to fix it and at the rate I am going today probably won’t be fixing it today either.  I am very tired.  So once I get my sink fixed I need to do dishes so I can take the time and start to cook dinner again.  If I don’t get it fixed quick this week is going to be very bad or I am going to need to get in and do a LOT of working out.  If I don’t have a solid 3 pound weight loss this week what I have started thinking about doing is doing pushups and situps every other hour while at work this gets me out of the sitting here typing on the keyboard thing that I normally do at work, raises my heart rate up and hopefully will get my metabolism kicked into high gear for the entire day.  ANyway, here is to another solid week and a weigh in of 154.6 next week!  Wish me luck.

K3B

K3B is what I use to burn CD’s.  now it is also what I use to copy .iso files off of cd’s onto my hard drive.  Very nice.  I can now backup all my DVDs and CDs to my computer.  I’m going to need a new hard drive soon!
