Well I am currently trying to setup my so-called website to capture some of this information i keep posting on my blog. It will be a little more organized than having it inline with my blog. It will also give me greater understanding of where my efforts are being focused.

If you are interested in free web hosting goto www.aspspider.com They provide free hosting of asp.net 2.0 and a small sql express database. Good enough for my purposes.

OK...so I didn't stick to my menu. I had two pieces of chicken and a plate of rice. Only one plate so I made sure I didn't over indulge today. Ordinarily I would eat more but I'm trying to cut back.

I've been missing

Well I've been missing days lately trying to get to the gym. Same old story...work to do, need to get it done...i'll work out another time. Excuses, Excuses....I can't stand it!!

No Excuses Update: I worked out today.

350 Calories.

I also lost 1 pound. I know some people at work who are shedding massive amounts of weight in just a week. I think that they may be just spewing in the washroom after their lunch and dinner. Bunch of runway models! <- I believe this is known as smack?

The week in review (October 31st - November 6th)

Total Calories Burned: 1130
Total Weight Sets: 147
Total Weight Loss: 0
Total Weight Gain: 3lbs

Unfortunately I'm screwed. I believe my binging over the week...especially the lunch on friday took me in the opposite direction. The goal of losing 5lbs is not starting off on the right track. As I review my blog I can see that the *thought* has not sinked in. What am I really trying to do here?

What I am really trying to do is change my thinking. It has to be that whenever I sit down to eat I need to ask myself a question. Is what I'm eating helping or hurting my goal. It is the question that drives us.

Update November 5th 2005

I went to Club Fit Today and had an hour and a half workout. I think weekends are the best times to workout because there is just more time available.

Calories burned: 530 on cross trainer.
Weights: 3x12 for biceps
Weights: 3x25 for triceps


Of course with the weekend there is also more time to eat too. So I'm trying to avoid the left over halloween candy. My goal is supposed to be a pound a week. don't know if I will make it though. Tomorrow will be a marathon session at the gym...literally!!

Update

So on Friday November 4th we had a going away lunch for one of our sales/pm's who's departure I'm still trying to figure out. Anyways....Instead of pre-ordering my lunch and eating something managable I opted for the buffet. Why you ask did I choose the rotten, sneeze guard doesn't work, pig trough, I better eat all I can buffet! Because its cheap and easy. And that makes my food a whore and i'm the john. (Good Grief!) I believe I will now digress....

Of course half way into my *second plate!* I'm wondering why that little voice inside my head didn't warn me about the decisions I needed to make in a few hours.

I must have packed on a pound or two because of it. I should have taken the hint from a couple of my co-workers and not eaten anything. Arghh!!

One thing I don't like doing is eating out. Depending on where you eat it is an easy way to gain weight. I will have to avoid eating in any restaurant this month.

Update

Lunch:

- 2 sandwiches of pbj
- 1 bananas (I could only spell this by singing the words to the gwen stefani song)
- 1 apple

Have to workout today!

Workout Stats:
300 calories.

I need a better place to acculate all of my statistics in regards to calories and weights. I should probably build an application to do this...then sell it!! Yeah..That's the ticket!

Weight Loss Update November 2nd

Today I had a Honking Huge dish of pasta and a side of chicken breast. Wow!! And Guess what...That was the small!!!

I'm so full....think me go, want, need slee...p....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
