  1. I moved my fitness log over to blogger basically. So I didn't quit but I also didn't want to keep a journal in any one place that boxes me in... i.e. "veganism". Because I am still eating eggs here and there and some fish. So it doesn't seem right. But I definitely haven't given up on health, fitness, nutrition, etc.
  2. I'm not so much as hung up the actual percentage itself so much as the number goes DOWN every ten days. And also I think it will be pretty obvious if I start to have better abdominal definition. In general, I am doing well on this diet... but I did get up at about 10:30pm last night and made a bowl of nuts, sugar free jelly and all-bran--- I kept thinking I was hungry but after a few bites I put the rest up. So on one hand I shouldn't have had any at all but on the other at least I stopped after a few (okay four small) bites. I've decided to extend my goal to 100 days even. So this could be a very long thread. 100 days. Today I did do Yoga they have this program on Fit TV called Breathing Space Yoga --- I've decided to go back to doing that and then running for 30 minutes in the morning and I plan to use intervals as often as possible. Then in the evenings I will lift weights or do some more yoga. This is 6 days a week, on Sundays I am relaxing. I am sticking to the smaller meals every day I hope it does the trick, it's not always easy to get in every little meal and snack during the day though. Thanks for everyone's feedback.
  3. I think over-all I did really well this weekend. I went back to eating those smaller meals, and in a way it's nice because you do get a little happy when you think "oh yeah, it's almost time to eat again". Or is that just me? One thing I am happy about is that on a normal basis I actually do love healthy foods. I love salads and broccoli and all that stuff that most people hate. There is this poor guy at work who wants to lose weight but all you ever see him eat are twinkies and chee-tos and stuff like that. When I do "cheat" it was usually something like low-carb ice cream or a lean cuisine lasagna meal --- you know, still not that bad for you but not as good as, say... beans and rice. But when I was going through technical training last year for six months I was really stressed and my schedule was nuts and I know that is an excuse but you know what I ate LOTS of stuff like pizza and doughnuts and I told myself I freakin deserved it. So um now it's time to get rid of that. But at least I LIKE healthy foods like tofu and oatmeal. It does make it easier than for someone who constantly craves McDonalds. Yesterday evening we went to this Chinese place and I don't really like Chinese and I ordered veggies and tofu and it came out all fried and nasty and I could not eat very much at all --- I came home and had broccoli with salsa and then a "no-sugar added" fudgesicle. Since I'm still transitioning into veganism you're going to see me list things like tuna and dairy for a while until it's out of my kitchen. I was so tired I slept all night no problem with snacking last night! I just keep thinking about Day Ten --- that'll be my next "check-up" to see if I'm making progress on this new diet and workout routine. I did work pretty hard on my legs this morning and incorporating the plyometrics like jump squats (no weight) left me winded.
  4. I think that's a great idea. Also, I'm noticing the weight isn't coming off as quickly as I'd like. I know they say slow is best --- but I've been stuck at the same weight for months and months now. SO I'm going to try to eat more frequent meals of between 300-400 calories each. Also these long workouts --- some days I just have trouble getting up that early so my plan for this coming week is to do these Beach Body DVDs in the morning and then in the evenings after work if I still feel good I'll go running for 45 minutes or so. I'll try to do the Beach Body plan for 90 days and then I see they have a new hardcore fitness program called P90X that looks cool maybe I'll do that after I get my BF% way down.
