What A Difference A Week Makes!

Last Monday I was annoyed that I had had a bad week. But, today is a complete 180. I reached all 3 of my goals for last week.

Since my last post I got one core workout in and did 2.30 mi in 45:00.

I also had a great week eating wise. I was able to make some tough choices (like turning down Rosie's...twice), but, other than lunch on Sunday, had a great week.

Looking forward to this week, here are my goals...

At least 2 "run" workouts
At least 2 core/weight workouts
At least 1 "other" (bike,Wii Active, etc)

For this week I'll keep the same goals. I want at least one more week of solid success before I up the ante. Another reason I don't hesitate to keep the same goals is because of the results of last week. The last time I posted anything about my weight was June 24, 2008! In that post I said that I was back up to 342 (after starting at 340.5 back in 2007). Since that post I topped out at 350. I remained at that level until the last couple weeks of July. One week of eating right dropped about 3-4 pounds. With the effort of last week I am now at 340. That is 6+ pounds shed last week.

Now, the sad thing is that I'm now back at my original starting point (early 2007). But, I can say without a doubt that 340 today is no where close to the 340 when I started. 340 now is only sign post on the path to a better me. Just with the last 2-3 weeks work I have more energy and feel stronger than the old 340. And that's with an unbelievable amount of stress at work.

I can already tell a difference in how my clothes fit. I can tell that my core is stronger. I can ALREADY see results!

Till Next Time...Keep Moving Forward!!!
