Sexy by September! Down 19 lb!

[Tandahda]

Well, that's not really my deadline, but it sounds great doesn't it? surprised

I weigh 203 lb right now. I realy don't want to ever get above this. So I'm here hopin' for change.

So here's a few of my goals and I'll post weekly with how I've done on them.

Bike to school every other day.
Walk half way to school when not biking.
Don't stuff myself to foundering.
Drink lots of water.
Eat more veggies and salad.
Do some kind of strength exercises a few times each week.

So that's relatively simple, but things are never as simple as they seem. I have trigger foods. Candy, rice, couscous, if I have them in my house I'll just eat them and eat them and eat them! It's really hard to avoid.

I'm also going to post my general feelings on matters and ideas I come up with. Here's hoping!~

Good luck! I know you can do it!
It might seem like a lot but just remember, baby steps and consistency are better than anything. :)
If you ever, ever need anything, just stop by my journal or PM me - I'll be happy to help in any way I can!

So I haven't been *good* but I haven't been entirely bad either, I had a few really bad days where I was just eating and eating and eating. Plus yesterday I had dinner at a friend's place and there was sooooo much good food. I couldn't believe it. I ate just so much.

I've been getting back into riding and today, I spent a good hour at it. I rode up to the main highway and then along down. 12ish km total. My knee is already getting stronger again and that makes me happy.

I'm working on not eating multiple meals and stuff. So I'm trying.  

[Tandahda]

I think while training up for super long distance rides, I'm going to start riding 20 km three times a week or so. It's about the same distance to start my route from school and then go home, so I'm pretty excited. Then once I'm used to the 20 km I'm going to start riding up to see my friend B-Chan once in a while. The only hard part will be getting from 20 km to sixty. because finding a route for that will be a bit harder for say fourty or fifty, and I can't visit B-chan 3 times a week, (she lives 30 km away)

Hmmm...

The 12km ride was not easy but it wasn't hard by any means. I wasn't dog tired, and I suppose that's how it should be. But still.

For riding from school the hard part will be my text books. They're heavy and that's not pleasant, however I could just call it training. I think I'm going to start the 20 km rides ... Once a week in addition to other riding until I start them three times a week (I still have a ways to go with my muscles)

Around may 20th give or take I'm going to start riding hardcore. : P

Hell if I ride to school and THEN ride my 20 km which is actually 22, it would probably be very close to 30 km anyway.

I can happily ride for an hour straight now. I think I should perhaps just exend that to two hours... Keep riding for one hour in one direction, come back... That might be good.

Today I went out and bought My fitness coach and I've only done the set up as of yet, but I *really* *really* like it.

I decided to take the gluttony thing out, because my mind seems to work thinking that it's a field to be filled. ._.

My gluttony I suppose though could be three pancakes for lunch, However, that's not the worst I've ever been. And it's not like there was a lot of sugar going into them. Just a lot of flour really.

30 minute routine my fitness coach. AUGH! I can't even believe how much harder it is to do a 30 minute routine than two 15 minute routines.

2 1/2 servings pasta when my political party didn't win, *again*... Sad panda comfort pasta. I'm just glad that it was not an unhealthy pasta, it was a 'cream' pasta made from blended tofu, and saute'd vegetables.

Notes:
Today I did really not so good eating, I barely ate in the beginning of the day and ate a reasonable dinner. I'm really tuckered out so I'm probably not going to binge out on anything. I just forgot to eat. ._. I was really busy and I've never forgotten that before. So wow. I think altogether I had perhaps 800 calories today and probably expended 4-500...

NONE. I'm not doing JACK today. >: (

Notes:
So. I'm on my period. I get them really bad. Complete with both nausea *and* wanting to eat everything in sight. General bad a** cramps with shooting pains that make me forget what I'm talking about. I want to die and I'm not doing anything. ******** anyone that tells me today that exercise helps. Though I should get up to get some water... hmmmm... to drag my a** ten feet over to get to the tap...

I have not been as bad as I was last night in... like... months and months and months. I was SO BAD. BAD BAD BAD.
