Woke up extremely groggy. I think this is partially due to a workout. I possibly also need to eat a little healthier. But one thing at a time right now and I believe the coming warmer weather is going to give me a little bit more power.
My eyes were closing really easily even as i was standing on the train..I am more awake now at the office!
Today i'll get off at the 1st bus stop and walk home. 1.5 mi or so...i can check again tonight.
I just can't believe all the sleep i've been needing since like the New Year.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
Slept from around 7pm until 4:45am...and still could have slept longer!!!!!! Really, it seems I need a bit more sleep than most. I think it's just my body.
6am kombucha 50
7am Banana 120, coffee 50, protein bar 130: 300.
10am Protein bar (didn't pack any other breakfast - still a little bored of the wrap with egg/pepperoni) 210
Noon Lunch: brought it! Chickpea pasta 200, health salad leftovers 150, 2 turkey franks 150, plum 50: 550...excellent!
Extra snacks: up to 4 clementines 150
Did a good job at least of sticking to my calories, above...even if snacks were a hair different. Bored at work today. didn't get enough done, either. Tomorrow is a new day.
4:30pm Dinner: sushi then home to pick up gym clothes and off to gym! 400
8pm After gym: Cliff bar 250
1950...total.
4day: 2088.

i've decided not to follow my meal plan exactly for the entire day...and that my meal planning is more knowing what i have and how the day will typically go, but not need to follow it to the T.
___________________________________________________
I am still working on a more positive approach to feeling that i can conquer the fitness goals that i have. right now, i'm doing that by being consistant. I seem to need a ton of sleep - so i'm not fighting that either.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
Fitness: I liked your idea of going heavier with weights. Also, loved the idea of really focusing on sit-ups and push-ups, for obvious reasons.
Be well, my friend!

3DAY AVG: 2135.
___________________________________________
I'm in need of lifestyle changes. Less sitting on couch. More involvment in a wider range of activities. But at the same time, i want to continuously be improving on my strength once again at the gym.
One change i want to make is getting up earlier again on weekends. Getting laundry done early...just trying to do a little more than i was in the Wintertime.
____________________________________________
last night at the gym i came to one major realization. i need to further adjust my pushps / situps - more sets need to be done with these parts of my workouts because those are the only two i'd be tested on for court officer. So, for now on, I've decided to stick to a # to complete by the end of each of these exercise: Situps = 100 per workout. Pushups = 100 per workout. More to come :)
____________________________________________
I feel i have enough food today to sustain me and will try to stick with this menu. No need to make any big changes on it. :)
___________________________________________
exercise today includes daily commute as well as getting off train with a mile walk to go home. this is it today. I also plan to take the steps instead of elevator when i get home & early to bed for another good day tomorrow !
Total walking will be around 2.5mi -3mi for today. decent..happy with this as it's on my way to doing more, little by little. there is def no rush on it.
_______________________________________________
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
Good plan on upping the pushups / situps, since they're on the test.
7:30am oatmeal, yogurt, fruit 550
10am pb and j on a small wrap 300
11am early lunch: my roasted eggplant 100, potato chips 150, small turkey frank and pepperoni 120. total here: 370. snacked on some squash skins after roasting a spaghetti squash.
1250... good.
Having a hungry day at home...not really sticking to a schedule today, which i am sure is why!
2pm snacks: blueberries 100, granola bar 100, almonds 150. 350..
1600, decent.
200 French cruller between outdoor exercise and gym 1850 before a light dinner ?... I have something at home to try... Can't seem to knock calories much lower at this moment. Went out to exercise 1.5mi walk jog and now off to gym
i think i'm going up to around 2100-2150 today.
I went a tad over, 2300 cal Sunday. but decent and strong exercise.
2day avg: 2150, good.
___________________________________________________
A few weeks ago we put up some wall art and this weekend we put up some shelving....yes there are stuffed animals on the shelves haha....it could change as I acquire other decor items! Here are some photos below! Before my walls were completely empty so this is def an improvement ! The reason for two pieces of art near the desk is because i removed one and put up shelves and i need to find a new home for either the seahorse or the art above it...still in progress :)
hmmmm, my portrait style pictures aren't uploading right... and really do not want to keep rotating....
This is the back wall of the living room:
oh, and my father is an electrician so approx 2 years ago, he put in the strip lighting you see above :) there was no clg lighting in the living room, so this is great for reading, etc.
Those shelves are 1 of the 3 shelving types i bought on Amazon. I like them very much and think they make the apt look a bit more modern. The painting is quite large and i got it for $20 from a man who wanted to throw it out.
the rest of the photos are rotated 90 degrees off......! so...i'm going back to take them again!!!!!!!!!!...ok...here they are:
This is the front wall of the living room:
The animals and flowers below are from Home Goods.I think the big one was around $50 and the smaller ones around $30. All of these are actually pretty large in size to cover almost the wall of an entire room...i love the contrast of the black and white with the color in the middle :)
Below is the living room looking into the foyer, general area just after entering my apt...i will probably change what's on the shelves but this is just fun for now... ;) everything on the shelves were gifts so they have some meaning anything i keep...even if a stuffed animal but of course the things on the shelves can change! Below is another set of shelving i bought - it comes as a set of 3 to put up any way you like...
Below is also in the pretty large living room space that i have...a desk and we originally hung the flower piece...but i may switch that piece with the seahorse below...and put the flowered piece in the kitchen near the table since it's a big blank wall...all walls are painted their original off white...not painting any time soon. this is good for now ;)
this is also at entryway, foyer area, right after entering my apt we have a nice mirror. it's so heavy. someone was throwing things out, so my friend got it for me for $20. No art pieces are more than $50, most around $20-30 range. All shelving, there's three types of shelves total i had bought, cost under $60. I would say i got a good bang for my buck.
I guess i could have just bought 1 picture for the bedroom ... these were not expensive but are pretty. One is like a French shopping area photo but i liked the girl dressing herself...perfect to go in my bedroom. I liked it....i suppose just one would possibly even look better...but they are up. :)
Lastly, a tiny picture in the kitchen bc i like veggies, so it's a veggie piece:
oh, here's the last but best shelving we put up....coming soon below!!!...it's a corner shelving! It's hard to see bc it's very bright coming in, but it's really cute and sits in the corner and i just love it and could seriously go for one more :) but i'm good for now. It was very interesting putting it together as the others were shipped as you see them, but this one below we put together ourselves, piece by piece!
I'm not an artsy person who decorates often, but i do feel my apt as more of an inviting space after putting up some designs on the walls :) It's a good start. The photos and paintings make me smile.
I enjoy the animals on the front wall of my living room because they are cute and good symmetry and contrast with the really colorful flowers painting that is between them :)
Ricky put up everything :) with my help, but he's the one who knew what to do all along...i was impressed wiith his handy skills. My walls are plaster...
.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
he's a good guy. just wish he never smoked, was at least 10 years younger bc the age difference is HUGE between me and him - 22 years...And that he was a tad more safe in terms of financial freedom. these are the reasons i can't officially date him. and certain things in both our personalities are NOT good for romantic commitment to living together.
he's a HUGE friend, sometimes benefits but not all the time (i know, TMI)...and well it would be nice if i could say he was the entire package and live happily ever after forever but that's not it here. i do totally wish it though :)
that being said, my mind is not fully open to dating now...and most of my time is definitely spent only with him - more than all other friends.
Hello !! Plans for today are to go out somewhere with Ricky (suprise for me) to walk i believe...then we'll have lunch and be putting some decorative wall shelving (quite a bit) up at my place - not kitchen shelves or bathroom but more for the main living room to put my knicknacks on. Then, actual tables and desks and furniture will be clear of clutter bc the cluttering items can be displayed properly on shelving! It was his idea and I ordered quite a bit and i'm SO LOOKING FORWARD to the clean and organized look that is coming to my apt very soon!
We are also putting some wall art up at his place as well as installing new kitchen and bathroom faucets i believe at his apt....as for me, i'm content after the shelving...It should change the look of my whole place. I'll perhaps take some photos when we are done. He's been great putting up all my wall art. It looks a lot more homey now over here :)
I exercised yesterday night at gym and i've decided i do not need a running session this weekend bc my legs are still working on walking more in general...so as long as I get activitiy in, that's my main goal at the moment :) So my whole day is dedicated to going out today in morning, crafts in afternoon, a movie tonight at home, with Ricky...It should be a good day to stay on track foodwise, like Donkey says, having plans and a schedule does help - especially on the weekend!
_______________________________________________________________
9am Breakfast: banana 120, kombucha 50, wrap with butter 100, egg 100, and pepperoni 100: 470. good... and now holding off....as we are picking up lunch later and then possibly dinner too.
Snack almonds and coffee 200 3 pm Mashed potatoes 200, peas and carrot dish 100, pork tastings 50, chicken loaf 200, health salad 100 700 tops 1400 We baked cookies 300 1700 :-)
total 2000 :-)
perfecto. we didn't walk - too chilly - but we did get a ton of home improvement stuff done at both our apts! instead of walking, we got coffee, came back to my apt and started work. It was worth starting early :) Everything at my place took around 3hrs...with some short rest breaks and coffee at the beginning.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
I have 9 months from now till end of December. 2x per week cardio training sessions from here on out. I will see how i improve from now until then. After doing Cardio 2x, it is my goal to switch up from 2x to 3x every once in awhile...like 2 weeks per month do it 3x a week!
I have decided to skip vacations this year...use the days, once again, for training purposes and not trips to Florida as originally i was planning to do in January. NO. If i want to see how much I progress, cardio improvement will have to be 1st on my agenda again. No trips, at all. I coud make an exception for a one-nighter, but no traveling vacations...as i tend to always backtrack after them and it takes me a month to get to where i was at before the trip.
Oh, and i have an additional plan to start using the stairs in my apt, instead of the elevator. Except if carrying more than my bag :)
So, attempting a no elevator approach :) I have to make changes or things will not improve for me....
__________________________________________________________________
So today is Friday and that means I am off to the gym after work..looking forward to doing something that keeps me on track :-)
Lately i see it's going to take more effort to continue the gym. Luckily, my class is OVER so it frees up my Tuesday nights. I'm going back to working out Tuesdays and Thursdays which i liked much better than Mondays and Wednesdays.
I look forward to these workouts bc i do progress when i do them regularly, 3x a week.
Now for cardio, I get off the bus early. I am trying to do it everyday. Yesterday was a bit much, 1.6mi seemed a lot i do NOT know why...but today i'll get off to walk a mile or so home. I'm not up to jog just yet i do not think during the week???? I'm debating what to do with the cardio part of my training...
When i get home around 4:30pm earliest from work i am very tired and hungry. Going back out to exercise is hard which is why tonight i am eating something fast and quick before going home. This will have to be my approach with also if i want to implement jogging. Because i get distracted otherwise being home to eat before going back out.
__________________________________________________________________________
Home: kombucha 50
Office: protein bar 170, peanut butter 100, small banana 50, coffee 50: 400.
snack: Almonds and clementine
Lunch: leftovers :) ...wrap with mustard and ketchup 100, 2 turkey franks 150, spinach 50, leftover other greens 100 400, maybe a coffee also..AND LEFTOVER PASSOVER COOKED MATZAH STUFF. 200
snacks: clementines 100
more snacking: 1 granola bar 3 hours after lunch. 100cal. i like these burts of sugar...sorta before i leave work to go home..
1450, fine :)
Dinner: miso soup and sushi... 550. Went out after lunch and for $10 bought what i wanted: roasted turkey, tons of cooked cabbage in a nice flavor, some chinese noodles and shrimp in sauce.Could be 500 cal idk...having trouble eating low cal and low volume these days. i guess i am bored.
1900
after workout: thinking to have light ice cream and call it a night! YES. the ice cream is a defininte.
2250 tops.
Weekly avg is 2110. 2140 I have been gaining weight still. But really slowly. I am def working on increasing cardio to counteract it as well as keeping calories moderate but not really low. I don't think i want to keep my calories low. just keep on moving and hopefully lose some pounds.
When you get off the train early to do some extra walking, are you wearing good sneakers? Just want to be sure that's not the cause of leg distress. If 1.5 miles is too much, right now, then cut it down like you did today. You'll get there -- and why press it now when the weather is crappy? Save your legs for when the morning weather is *beautiful* and you really WANT to be outside as long as possible before work :-)
It can also be that i am always standing on the 15min subway portion of the ride home and have my bag with me. It wasn't even a heavy bag yesterday.
The shoes are ok - not the worst, not the best. They are a very casual and comfortable sneaker. I don't wear dress shoes much at work...and will have to stick to the comfortable footwear.
I have found it distressing to have to change sneakers to shoes, etc., and i think it's too much fuss so i just wear the same shoes at work mostly as i do on my commute...
yes, i'll be happy next week not going to class...
and then in 2 weeks after i have one of my 6 times a year union meetings, haha...it's ok...
anyways, i'm working to do something about my cardio. i'll just keep on doing it. not quitting.
in my head, i have also started to debate if it's worth it to continue to train for the court officer thing...i am not sure why i continue as i don't even love the type of training it is...but in my heart deep down i still want to see how well i can improve on the goal to pass the test.
i feel i can still try.
you are right as bodies do change. as your hubby faces things that just need to be fixed as the body wears down. I want to try so badly to get over my issues of poor leg strength. I am so close with my pushups and situps to the highest scores i need...it's just my legs.
i'll keep trying. and i'll have to see where i am at, by the end of this year, to see if i've made great improvements or not..particularly in running. If not, i may just need to move on.
I hate cardio. I'd much rather work on strength training personally, but have incorporated a 3 mile daily walk into my routine right now so that I'm ready for the cruise and some summer hikes I'd like to do with the girls.
I have the cardio in mind bc i have a goal to possibly go for a court officer position. but i am under par in the cardio parts...so 2 miles is one goal, but they also include a speed element. so i train on a track and i can also do short sprints and walk inbetween.
its specific tests - i tried one and failed it completely...but that's before any training and a winter completely off of cardio.
i am not sure i am physically fit for the cardio parts, but giving it a try anyways until January. the test for the court officer position doesn't even come out this year...either 2019 or 2020. so i can train and stay positive for now..there is no age cut-off.
As far as the treadmill walking, I do 3 miles per day at a brisk walking pace. I haven't proceeded to a jogging pace yet for more than a minute or so per session. I really don't have a desire to jog or run, but would love it if the 3 miles were completed quicker than the current 50 minutes they take. I really don't understand the mentality of people that go out and run 3-5 miles every day.......and say they enjoy it.
So yesterday's calories were good but after dinner i was tired and was out at activities after work both on Monday and Tuesday and have a dinner planned for tonight with a friend so i just skipped out on the gym and was in bed by like 7pm. I rarely skip the gym but was feeling low energy and decided i'd rather be in bed. I plan to make up for the missed session though - by going Friday after work and Sunday eve. Two rather challenging times to go to gym - but it was nice being home last night in bed...
It's not always easy for me to be on the go always having an activity after work each night. It tends to drain me. So last night I just decided to take a more relaxing approach. And i did sleep long through the night, so I must have needed it.
but with that said, taking last night's easy approach cannot always be done as it would mean tons of skipping gym sessions...pick and choose...this time though, i can make it up Friday without missing any of my 3 weekly sessions.
....Today is a new day....
I got off bus extra early today for a 1.5 mi walk home. I'm not sure why it feels so difficult still!? Anyways, that's good and it was nice and sunny.

Home: kombucha small amount 50
Work: peanut butter 100, protein bar and coffee 300
Bar 200

Snack: apple 100
Snack 2 when at home: pretzels 120
1450-1500, perfect before dinner. I am going to do the right thing at dinner.
____________________________________________
Dinner: out to dinner, may eat some veggies at home beforehand, it's at nearby Applebee's bc they are doing a promotion that 10% proceeds go to Autism Awareness Research ....i promised a friend i'd go, otherwise, i'd be at the gym tonight. Will probably eat a salad or other healthier item...or maybe even indulge as all i can think of this week is more bread all of a sudden.
Bed soon after :)
Total around 2100, good.
6day 2120.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
not a lot of veggie sides...and so many temptations!
i'll try to behave :) as i'm sick of weighing more than i want to.
oh, thank you for the tips. i may just get the chicken and shrimp. i could use some extra protein.
Today I craved chips since after lunch, all during my walk after lunch, until like a half hour after that walk.
I didn't buy them...really bc i didn't see a basic deli, just fancy food shops and a Japanese deli that actually didn't have anything buT Japanese items. So, it worked out and I realized the bigger cravings this week and little indulgences are due to hormones and that i'm doing pretty darn well considering this. Next week and the next 3 weeks should be a lot easier...and that makes me smile also. I am so glad i didn't buy the bag of chips and destroy my food plan for the day.
I can do this :)
I am sick of waiting till "tomorrow" to lose the few pounds I have gained.
______________________________________
Still cals are too high - but - i am starting to increase activity again so maybe some weight will drop - very slowly - as I increase my cardio again. So i'm ok as long as I continue without huge binges, so, all in all, things are ok.
Although i woke up feeling slightly unrested, i am going forward with my original plan for gym tonight rather than tomorrow night bc it makes my weekend much more flexible.

___________________________________
I did sleep a lot, it was just very interrupted with many bathroom breaks and craving to a small snack before i went to bed bc i had such trouble even falling asleep.
I had caffeine before bed last night, so for the first time in a long time i couldn't sleep well and woke up several times during the night. it was a diet coke. so, now i realize that i must be a little more mindful...and stick to healthier ways. i was out, the diet coke was free and available. i was trying to save cals, but get full. moving onwards!
____________________________________________
Very tired, slow, hungry day. but just keeping on...bc i do love how i feel at the gym and after accomplishing a successful workout....and i like how i feel in a nice dress at a wedding time to time...i'm saying that i'm going to continue on being good today because it feels SO GOOD when doing the right things finally PAYS OFF.
I have a wedding to attend late August...perfect time of year...after a warm summer, after being outside more, a little tan, when people are usually their leanest....
Anyways, my goal for this wedding is to look as good as i can :) ...
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
I wish I had planned better for my niece's wedding in May, 6 weeks and 2 days from today. I won't know that many people there, and with the exception of my daughter & Houseguest and Mr. Donkey, I don't like any of the few others that I do know who will attend.

Maybe you should open your apartment windows and air the place out a bit......there may be a low oxygen thing going on there.....My parents never opened their house up to fresh air...and I had problems there.
hmmm...also, i know people like to sleep in slightly cool rooms...but i have been enjoying sleeping in 80+ temps.

Have you had your thyroid checked lately? Being cold and tired and unmotivated to be active are all symptoms of low thyroid. And if your thermostat is set at 80 degrees....that is very high.....basically it should be between 69 and 72......80 degrees can be very physically draining. Put on extra layers if you are cold....but you will be able to breathe better in the cooler air too.
regarding the heat, i'll try the more layers approach...but may have to wait a few more weeks until it's slightly warmer at night...rather, i'll set the heat a little bit lower also :) i do have a thermometer in my room so i do know the temp and can change it.
...lately i'm craving fats like avocado. i think i just need to eat a little bit better?
i probably do have a sorta low thyroid but don't wanna go to dr now...
