Darn!

Monday-- getting hot!

I got here to work earlier than usual.
The sprinklers had just watered my path around the little lake!
Mud.... and water in several spots.

An older woman was out walking probably in her 70's. She had nice legs!
You go girl!
This afternoon I walked on the treadmill in the little gym on campus.
I went about 1.17 miles at a 3.5 pace. Not that fast! 18 min. mile!
I want to get that down! I hope the dr. I see in July will tell me I can jog.... If so, I bet she will say I have to wait until I lose 40 more pounds?

Sunday

Saturday- I did NOTHING~!
Sunday I walked 2.6 miles and had a great time with my sister.
Randy and I had a good day also.

Friday-

Hot but windy.
I got 6 or my 8 laps in before work (.75 of a mile). I went to the campus gym and got another 1.25 so I have my two miles.
I would really like to get one more in before the day is done!
Seems like this is hard to do. I forget I have the glider....
Cake is in the staff room.....
Weighed 192 or 193 this morning.
This is better than yesterday's weigh in so I think I must walk at least 2 miles every day but one per week in order to keep losing. Note to self weight loss is Lose - Losing. not Loosing.

Thursday

So far fitness wise this has been a great day.
Got one mile in this morning and one mile on the treadmill here at work.
Thanks to the gentleman that kindly opens the door for me!
Every encouragement is God given and blessed!

One day in His courts is better than millions elsewhere.

Last night walked one mile at home with my husband.

One mile yesterday. Plan to do more today. Watch for post.

It was so warm outside I decided to try the workout room on campus.
It was locked but luckily kind gentleman opened it for me.
I got on the machine--- What do I do? It is all in Kilometers! The weight is in metric also. I have never been a metric person!
I had to guess. So I guess I went 1.7 miles.
Tomorrow I will take my pedometer and measure the distance that way and compare the digital readout. 192 pounds = 87.3 kilograms.
http://www.manuelsweb.com/kg_lbs.htm
So I set my workout at 5.5 Kilometers which is actually better than
3 miles an hour. Good. So if I went 1.7 Km then that is over one mile if the distance was being measured in KM. 1 mile = 1.61 kilometers (km)
5.5 Kilometers = 3.417541557305337 Miles
http://www.calculateme.com/Length/Kilometers/ToMiles.htm

Terrible week-end. Tuesday

Another great day!

When I got home, we decided purchase some Chicken from Randalls. It was very very good. We still have some left.
Later I got my 2 miles in walking the neighborhood- I saw an injured snake. It looked dangerous.
It was over a foot long and had a diamond shaped head with diamond marks on it's body. It was mostly a light pink brown.
Hmmm?

Opps!

I did not exercise this morning; it is very very humid and stale out there.
I did not exercise last night; I had to get ready for company.
I did NOT stick to the fruit and water diet but I was pretty good.
I NEED to count my calories!
I DO plan to walk 2 miles tonight rain or shine (sun or moon or not).
Weight is still right around 200-201.
Feel pretty good. Plan to feel better!

Let me tell you!

Boy let me tell you.  I was depressed yesterday afternoon.
Yes! Very!
Must have been in the water cause my daughters said they were too.
This morning I am much better cause I weighed in around 200 pounds.
I am going to have fruit and water today ALL day.
I hope I can do it.
I am going to start taking Schiff's Glucosamine & MSM for joint pain.
I have a right heel that hurts off and on.
I walked my 8 times around the little lake at work this morning; I am trying to move faster.
I don't know what a mile is yet so I need to ask.
I want to move one mile before work.
I think I believe I need to be going 3 miles a day.
I will work up to it.
Hang in there- staff!

Wednesday May 18.

Walked over 2 miles last night.

I was achy and sore this morning- right ankle.

I went a head and walked my campus laps- 8 of them. 

After the first 4 I wasn’t hurting anymore.

Wonderful.

I still need to find time to do my sit ups.

I am pulling back off the weights until I get to about 180 or so.

I think this will help mentally.

I had an epiphany today.  I hope I really did.

I will tell you about it someday but for now it is a new thought in my head.

I think the thing I have been spending my time juggling isn’t it at all.

Spending time with God and exercising I think has let me to this conclusion.

I shall see. Praise God in all things cause in the end that is all that matters.

Tuesday staying home

Good morning! Got company coming in and this is the only day I can take off to get ready.
I did  not go walking last night but I hope to go 2 miles today Lord make me willing!
Got to go to work cleaning etc.

Good Morning World!

Beautiful day out there at 6:31 a.m.  I walked 8 laps around the Campus Lake- very little.
Now I must work!  Blog to you later!

Well my hubby and I have been busy with church and a date....

I worked Friday and Saturday.
Saturday I had to go attend graduation.  Yes the whole shabang. Cap Gown and walking down the aisle and sitting on the stage.  Has great speech from Dr. Sloan.  Find the Truth. Live the Truth.
Then I drove home.  Randy and I ate out with our graduating Senior at a Japanese Restaurant.
The we went home got ready for church- awesome service.  Then we walked the Woodlands Mall River walk area.  Ate at a Sandwich shop and enjoyed Thor.  It was pretty good including the 3-D.
We ended up at home around 11:30 p.m.   Today I went to the Mall twice. Once with my daughter and once with my sister.  I am tired.I did walk this morning and will walk again Monday morning. So not much exercise but a lot of fun!

We got RAIN last night! It is a cool nice morning today.

Last night my sister graciously walked one more mile with me.  So hopefully most days I am walking 2 miles or so.  We will see if this will take me under the 200 mark! Please Please Please!
This morning I bought a McD's BACON EGG BAGEL WITH CHEESE!  Okay I did not eat it and gave it away.  That was close!  That breakfast sandwhich is 480 to 500 calories!
So I have my orange juice and a small orange, apple, or some pears.
That is the way to go but it is full of sugar.... Hmmmmm.
Hoping for situps and pushups etc tonight.
Have an awesome day!

May 11, 2011 Wed.

Great job!  I did my weights and situps; I forgot my push ups.  I guess I'll do that tonight AND
walked one mile.  This morning I walked 8 labs or 21 minutes at work around 6:30 a.m.
Now I have got to concentrate on work.
So far have had a class of milk and ovaltine.
Still weighing around 203-4????

Wed. May 11, 2011

Monday Review

Okay, last week I think we ate out twice.
Once at Wings and More  (hmmmm yeah I know.)
Then I also had a medium sandwich from Schlotzsky's; I only ate half with no chips
"The Original® Sandwich - Lean smoked ham, Genoa and cotto salamis, and melted cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses layered with black olives, red onion, lettuce, tomato, mustard and our signature dressing on toasted Sourdough bread. Includes chips of your choice and a fountain drink." from their website.
So I didn't see much weight loss over the week-end !-(
Plus I did not exercise Friday or Saturday ( I had to work).
On a good note I walked about 2 miles Sunday.
This morning I walked around 6:30 at work.
I am bound and determined to get under 200 pounds this week!!!!
Today weights- not too much-- and situps and push ups.

Yesterday walked...

I also walked 6 laps on campus and at home 50 situps and 50 push ups and other arm exercises with 10 pound weights.  I hope to walk 1-2 miles today.

This morning

This morning I weighed around 201.
That is marvelous. 
Got home last night to my husbands wonderful chicken rice and salad!
He is a great cook!
I only ate half my piece of chicken. Ate my rice and salad.  I also had a small piece of angelfood cake with whip cream and strawberries. yum.

Oh by the way....

As I am sitting here at the reference desk I spy a bowl of chocolate eggs for our students right within arms length.  How long can I resist that?  

Day 1 Introduction

Good Day World,

After 6 years on the reference desk as a librarian, I startled to see that I had gained rougly 30 pounds.

It is uncomfortable to climb stairs to conduct library tours and I feel my Joie de Vivre evaporating.

This is on top of the weight I gained and never lost after three pregnancies and going to Graduate School.

For about one month, I have been decreasing my food intake and exercising again.

So far I have lost about 10 pounds.  You can do it too.  Let's start this journey together!

 --for now the overweight librarian.
