Progress as of 6/20








Alright, so progress thus far.  I'm kind of hanging around the 226-227 range for the better part of 2 weeks, though I think some of that has to do with how crummy last weekend was.  This week went pretty well, no crazy binges.  Did all my workouts, adding an extra circuit to each one, which was alright except for Friday, that was extremely tough, but it all helps so at least there is that.
Wednesday Audrey wasn't feeling well, so I got her a pizza from her new favorite place.  It's thin crust, and held myself to only three slices.  Last night we were hanging out with Audrey's family, and after a more sensible dinner of Chipotle, we went out for ice cream.  I initially wasn't planning on getting any at all, but I thought the cookie ice cream wouldn't be too bad.  Unfortunately, I should have looked it up prior to ordering because when I logged it, it was over 700 calories.  I was still under for the day, but should have stood firm and got nothing.
Pictures this week are in GIF form so it will be easier to see improvements.  I know that the longer I keep this up, I'm going to have to limit how many photos I put in, but for now, here's all of 'em.  I've also set up my spreadsheet and graphs for the measurements, but it will still be a few weeks before I'll post those, as I need more data!  Also, it is clear that I need to do better measuring as there are already a few outliers.  I'm not sure if I mentioned it in a prior post, but I've added in protein shakes to my diet, as I wasn't getting nearly enough in through basic eating.  I'm using optimum nutrition's isolated whey protein from costco, and it's pretty tasty.  Especially since I invested in a cheap blender so I can add in a banana, some peanut butter, and some ice.  Like I said very tasty. 

Progress around this house and getting my bike up and running has stalled somewhat as my speech class is getting more intense and it's getting very hot here making it very difficult to motivate myself to do anything, hopefully that changes soon, at the very least, only one more week left for class!

On the Audrey front, her job sucks more and more all the time, apparently one of her coworkers got fired, and they're not going to replace him.  So more work for everyone, plus is will be unlikely that she will be getting a Saturday off  again anytime soon.  Hopefully we can find her something better soon.

  1. I like the gif, it makes it easier to see your progress. It's amazing how far you've come in such a short amount of time. :)
