It’s Raining Again… January 5, 2006

Raining again this morning.

Since I’m now used to getting up at 5:30am anyway, I decided to spend some time on the computer. It was nice being able to get some stuff done before the rest of the house woke up.

Now, About That Diet… January 4, 2006

I know that I said a few days ago that I wasn’t going to worry about trying to change my diet at this stage, preferring instead to concentrate on integrating exercise into my daily routine. But I’ve found that I’m now looking at food a little differently, and choosing healthier options when eating out, skipping junk food snacks at home, and eating a little less at each meal.

It feels like overeating or eating rubbish is working against all the effort I’m putting into exercising, and so it’s just less appealing to me lately.

When I jogged this morning, I made it further up the first hill than I ever have before. My fitness is definitely improving. I continued my walk up the hill towards the lookout far above our town, and I made it further than I ever have before in the same amount of time. This is great!

Rain January 2, 2006

I woke up at 5:30 this morning, only to discover it was raining. Damn.

I went back to bed, but sleeping in honestly didn’t feel as good as I thought it would. After two days off exercising, I actually miss it – that’s a first for me!

Weekly Weigh-In 2006-01-01 January 1, 2006

Not a great week for weight loss, but I only missed one exercise session this week (New Years’ Day – hopefully that’s understandable!). I didn’t put any weight on over Christmas, despite not being concerned about what I ate. Gotta be happy with that! I’m definitely feeling fitter than last week, and have noticed that I’m no longer short of breath after climbing stairs, walking up a hill, etc.

Happy New Year!

I got to bed around 1am last night after seeing the new year in, so I didn’t get up at 5:30 this morning to go for a walk. I’m sure I can be excused for this one day, though! I did mow the lawn this morning, so I guess that counts for something.
