Lose weight the fun way.

Posted on January 27, 2016

1/27 This game has actually been going on for a month, and will overlap game #4 - my last Kickstarter for the forseeable future. DietBet #1, Kickstarter, was relatively "easy" as games go. #2, a Kickstarter, was mentally draining, and I ended exactly on goal. #3 is my first Transformer. I had hesitated doing a 6 month game as I didn't know if I could keep focused that long. But I have been pleasently surprised; token weigh-ins and monthly weigh-ins have and will help motivate me. I will start #4 in a day or two to help a co-worker on her first DietBet.

13055 steps / 5.35 miles / 757.1 calories / 130 minutes

Feeling good, feeling tired. I have come to realize that I was over tracking, and getting depressed by any flaw, not celebrating the sucesses. So now thru February 29, it will be FITNESS FEB only.

2/9 Yesterday was c-r-a-z-y with 3 walks. Lunch, after the BB game, and surprise! with JD. Hit 16,384 steps then. Today I wanted to hit 11,000. Before the elliptical I was at 8300. After I was 10,016. The elliptical said I did 3900 steps. That would then be 12,200 steps. I am totally counting goals as met regardless of which way I count. An hour on the E is none too shabby. 219.6 pounds today.

2/3 Pedometer froze yesterday at 11:19am. Bum-mer! Today was a good day step wise. 15326 steps / 6.04 miles / 842.9 calories / 157 minutes. Negatives = self sabotaging with foods. Cake, brownie, chocolates. Not drinking all my water. Not tracking sugars. Positives = made step goals. breakfast and lunch were on track. Dinner was healthy, if even unmeasured in amount.

2/1 part 2 - Totally fighting my brain today. I am DONE. I want to quit. Diets are stupid, and have the word "die" in it. I love food. All food. I want to get up, walk into the kitchen and just start eating everything I can lay my hands on. Same f*^&ing 3 pounds for the past 3 weeks. So pissed that I ate my weight at Pizza Ranch. Who does that before a weigh in?!!! Ok - positives. Ate clean and ate small today. Walked for 25 minutes at lunch. Walked again with JD this evening. Personal best with tracking steps. 14081 steps / 5.77 miles / 816.6 calories / 134 minutes. Going to bed now.

2/1 Noooooo! I was at goal on Friday. Then we went to Billings for a wrestling weekend and ended up at Pizza Ranch. I just CANNOT do buffets!!! When the f%^* will I learn?! 224.4 And I ran out of meds. And I just saw I could have weighed in before I left and won this round. And here I was TOTAlly annoyed by people asking "stupid" questions as they obviously had not read the rules. It is Feb now. Fitness Feb. F*^& Feb and my head is just not in it.
