Weigh In 21
I actually forgot about weighing in for a little bit. Eesh. You take one week off and your mind goes to fluff… BUT I do have the numbers, though they are not very exciting.
SW: 256
LW: 252
CW: 252
Still at good ol’ 252. Considering the indulgences I let myself have over the holidays, I’m okay with that number. Well, not okay, but I’m definitely glad I didn’t see a gain on the scale.
I am, unfortunately, having one of those times when I really ‘feel’ fat. Those times usually come when I haven’t been drinking enough water, though, so at least I know what to do to work toward getting past the feeling. I’m already halfway to where I need to be for today and it’s not even noon, so that’s a good start.
I saw on Hanlie’s blog that she is keeping track of her exercise minutes in her sidebar and I think that is an awesome day. At the point I’m typing this, I have a pathetic five minutes, but I’m going to keep track of my minutes exercised in my weigh-ins from now on.
Whee! I think I should have a goal number of minutes for the year…
100 hours = 6,000 minutes = ~ 16.5 minutes of exercise per day
Sounds good to me! What do you think? So here is my first recording of exercise minutes.
5 minutes of exercise
5,995 minutes (99 hours 55 minutes) to go!
Now I’m going to do some time on the elliptical! I have to make up for the time I missed!

Oh I’ve been feeling fat too but I think mine stems from that good ‘ol time of the month. I’ve been drinking about 75 ounces of water or more a day so I know it’s not that.
I haven’t gained anything but it still sucks when you ‘feel’ like you have.

I love my spreadsheet! The first thing I do when I get back from a walk or the gym is to update it!
I have no idea what a realistic exercise goal would be, so for now, I’m just making sure that I do something every day. And I’m loving it!

Jenera - Yeah, that’ll do it. I haven’t had TOM for a while, so I forget a little what it’s like.
(Don’t hate me.)
Hanlie - I love mine, too. I just updated and polished it off a bit.

[...] I went looking through my archives to see where I was and what I was doing in the beginning of January. I found my first weigh-in for the year: [...]
