7 pounds lost in a week! I know I was pushing hard this week, but wow. I guess Atkins and a serious commitment to working out is a 1-2 punch, huh?

Speaking of working out, I am 7 for 7 so far. I have made a commitment to myself and it feels so good keeping it. There were a couple of days this week that I just didn't want to. I was tired. I was sore. I was full of all sorts of really good excuses. The old insidious one of "I will do it later, I swear!" reared it's ugly head more than once. It's become a trigger to get up and workout right now. It's funny how later never comes.

I read an article about quick weight loss vs. slow and steady weight loss. It didn't focus on which was better, it focused on a person's willingness to continue with a program. It found that an initial burst of sudden weight loss was more likely to keep people committed. Kind of explains Atkins huge popularity! Also, the popularity of unhealthy 'cleansing' diets.

I put in 30 grueling minutes on the elliptical today. I really pushed and I found myself sweating buckets. Literally dripping. It would have been disgusting if I hadn't been so proud! Look at me, working so hard! Stretching has turned into a real pleasure. Despite my size, I am really seeing progress each day. I can reach further, do more. I can stretch further now that I could at fifty pounds lighter. I am gonna be a limber lady!

Time to cook breakfast for the week! I need to start making higher calorie breakfasts and saving the muffin in a minutes for lunch, or even dinner. Maybe some egg and sausage thingies I saw a recipe for on here. I will have to look them up!

July 5th

Today was a hard day. I did not want to work out at all, but I made myself to a series of pushups and bicycle crunches. I was not feeling the 30 Day Shred. I will have to get back into it tomorrow. This evening, I spent 8 hours on my feet, walking about.

My feet, legs, and back ache from it. Does that count? It feels like it counts. I weighed myself this morning and I had put on a pound since yesterday. When I got home this evening that pound had come off! Walk enough and it would, wouldn't it?

July 6th

I just did 15 minutes of the Shred video. I can't believe how hard it was to start up after only one day away. I really have to keep my car analogy in mind: Once you get it going, don't stop pushing!

But I did it. Now to head to work and walk and stand for 8 hours. I am glad that I work out as well. It is a bad habit, no matter how physical my job is, to count it as my workout. It is not my workout. It is a part of my daily activities, and yes it is more than usual, but I still have to grab my weights and get going. THAT is what will make those 'daily activities' easier!
*****
Yeah, working out hard this morning made my evening shift much easier. I was already warmed up and ready to go. My feet barely hurt at all, and my didn't even twinge! This is good stuff, this working out!

Going to make this weekend a time of some serious pushing. My week is going to be crammed, and I want to earn a couple of easy days in advance!

Had to do some very quick nibbling to get my calories up for the day. A delightful, and overly large, serving of gouda cheese did the trick. I have got to remember to get my calories in early in the day, so I am not trying to crawl into bed on them.
