This past week has been birthday central for us. We’ve celebrated so many birthday’s it’s crazy. I believe there has been 7 birthday celebrations I’ve been a part of. Some of those are duplicates for people where we had a small get together and then an actual party, but it still caused me to giveContinue reading “Week Seven Summary”

Technology Woes
Most of the time technology and I get along really well. Much of my time is spent working with technology and helping others use it. That’s the way I like it, me being the one to figure something out and help someone else use it. When it goes the other way and technology doesn’t workContinue reading “Technology Woes”
Week Five Summary
This week it has become obvious to me that I know nothing about how to lose weight. In my week four summary I was still working out pretty solid and eating pretty good as well and I lost no weight. This week however I gave in many more times on my eating and snacking. ThenContinue reading “Week Five Summary”
Change of Plans
Today Jen had a rare day off during the week. When we found out about this we decided to take advantage and I made arrangements to be off work today and work another day instead. Our plan was to hike Cape Split for the first time together. Jen has never made the hike before andContinue reading “Change of Plans”
Week Four Summary
This has been a rough week. Typically I check in on the scales to see how I’m doing throughout the week to make sure I’m on the right track.

Running has been going just about the same as always. I’m working at getting faster and getting a good number of runs in.Continue reading “Midweek Check in and I’m Feeling Down”
Week Two Summary
It is a good thing that I started out with a good week because this past week didn’t see the results I was hoping for. I still did pretty well, but if I keep having weeks like this I won’t hit my goal when I want to. My workouts and running have been on track,Continue reading “Week Two Summary”
Will Power
Early on when I started running I found that I must not have the strongest will power. When ever I would run a loop that either took me past my house or past my car multiple times it made it very easy for me to stop earlier than I wanted to. I learned to startContinue reading “Will Power”
Week One Summary
It always seems easiest to take off weight in the very beginning when you start working I find. This week seems to be no exception. I’ve been working hard and making sure I eat right, except for a couple small lapses, but even those were minor really. This week I put in five 5k morningContinue reading “Week One Summary”
