Shape Up 2012 – Trespassing

Okay, I'm biting the bullet and making a commitment. This week I'll drink the recommended amount of water (body weight/2/8 oz) and walk the fence line 3 times/day. My goal is to have one certain pair of pants fit loosely. They presently do not zip up. I'm ridiculous but I can't acknowledge the actual number that I weight. I get on a roller coaster with that. When I lose some, I want to celebrate, when I gain some I want to eat because it depresses me. It's better that I just not know until I get started and leveled out emotionally. I just found out that my tea mug holds 14 oz of tea and I usually have 3 cups -- without even trying, I'm off to a good start! Good luck everyone. See you next week!

Okay...checking in. *BTW....I already have a lifestyle diet....it's just not very healthy!*

Sticking with the whole ADAM DIET thing, I'm going with the US Top 40 spins of 24 plays. .... and taking baby steps here, I'm splitting those spins between aerobic and strength training. 5 days a week, I'll do 12 minutes of strength training and 12 minutes of 'aerobic housework' You'd be surprised how you can get the heart rate up if you run back and forth from the laundry room putting one piece of clothing away per trip.... and get things done at the same time! When Adam's single really takes off, I'll have a very spiffyclean home! And yes, I may have to make adjustments when his spins go into the stratasphere! *good advice jablea*

Goal...25LB, WEEK...0, TOTAL....0

I keep on saying ...I am going to get back to exercising. I go in spurts...time to get some consisitency and setting this goal with the group may be my ticket. We eat pretty healthy...not perfectly, but it is not exercising that causes the creeping of pounds and inches.
so...Here goes...my goal to loose 10 pounds:

I will go to adult skate at least once a week.
I will go to the gym at least twice a week.
I will do some type of exercise when I watch tv three times a week.

Good luck everyone!!

Easy hot dinner dessert recipe to satisfy the sweet tooth. I think because it is warm it seems to satisfy more than a cold apple:
-slice an apple (size dependent) for 1 to 2 people in a baking dish
-dash of cinnamon
-add some fresca or diet sprite (if you don't mind dying of additives like aspartame) or even water works fine.
-microwave 4 min or bake to desired softeness
-option--toss in a few raisins (or leave out if sugar reduction is important)

I feel like I'm going to an AA meeting. Well, let's call it Adamoholics Anonymous. My name is Adamuse and I'm an Adamoholic. This has led to a 8lb weight gain since my stanning started in the summer of '09. I'm going to take the High Road here, and not blame Adam (although clearly it is his fault) : and take responsibility for my hours in front of the computer when I should have been exercising. I hate having a muffin top and feeling fat jiggle when I walk. The fat assessment thingy you hold with both hands at the gym had my on the edge of obese.

My goal is to lose 8 pounds by;

1. Going to the gym 3-4 times per week.

2. Walking the dog during daylight hours everyday so I can also cure my Vitamin D deficiency.

3. I'll need a lot of help with this one; Walking away from the computer after 1 hour and doing something active like 50 crunches or some housework at a super fast pace.

4. An absolute maximum of 3 hours stanning per day. I'd like to make it 2 but I'm being realistic.

5. Eat a healthy diet and cut out in between snacks which aren't fruit and vegetables. That pre dinner time is my down fall.

I think my biggest problem is that I do not want to be cured of the cause of my weight gain.

I've already broken rule 3 and 5 this morning. :-/
