Day 3 behind me, and the first day that I made my calorie plan. Hopefully the first of many in a row, because consistency is the real key to weight loss - both on the diet and the exercise sides. At least that is the way it is for me, if not for everyone. The longer I stick to my plans, the easier it is to stick to my plans, 'cause who wants to give up when they have a good streak going?
I also got to run a bit more, although an early morning and late night at work put the kibosh on my 2nd workout for the day. That's just the way it goes with a job like mine, though.
Today's weigh-in - 193.9 lbs. Again, it fluctuates a good bit, so I'm neither excited or upset about this number. My target is 190 by the end of this month, and I will work my butt off to get there.
Thought of the day: Today is a blood drive at my company, and since I'm not running my scheduled marathon this weekend, i'm going to participate. I don't know a lot of people who do - some can't due to illness or other conditions, some can't because they are just too freaked out by the needles. I am neither of those things, I'm healthy, I'm strong, and I bleed well (phlebotomists love me - how many people can say that?), so I kinda think it's my duty. If you can donate, you should - your body will replenish. If you want to, but can't - find someone who can and get them to donate. I did that a few years ago when I was banned from donating, and got three people who are now regular donors. It costs you almost nothing, and could save someone else's life.
