Monday January 29, 2007 Weigh-In

276.5 lbs

>> I’m UP 0.5 lbs …
>> YTD Down 5.5 lbs

Reflection

After the Sunday Dinner at my folks place last night, and then weighing myself first thing in the morning .. I thought I would be up more than just 0.5 lbs ..so I should be happy

But – I’m not happy. This past week has been quite stressful (offline work-wise) .. I’m not exercising .. I’m not cutting back .. I’ve noticed that I’ve been keeping my notebad with my camera, and the last few days I have posted my points on the following day rather than before I go to sleep. AS such, by morning I forget my notepad up here in the office next to my computer. I eat, and then have to remember to write it down when I get back to my computer – but, it should be that I remember to write it down and then eat.

So – I’ve decided to “step” it up in February by the following:

* Leave both my camera and notepad downstairs and write down the meal points before I eat it. If I don’t, before you know it I will be more forgetful taking pictures! (or NOT! I enjoy taking pictures of my meals, even though it must be boring to you all)

* Mentally cut-back the 35 splurge points to 15 and try not to exceed that amount on a weekly basis. I’m not trying to maintain my weight .. I am trying to lose weight.

* Superstore was advertising those really cheap electric treadmills .. I think I will pop by on the weekend and check it out – to see if it’s sturdy enough for me, and by “electric” .. to see if they meant the treadmill is electric, or some attachment like heart monitor etc or watch is the electric part of it. If/when I get one – I’ll take a picture for the blog here.
