W2D3 in the books! I felt really good during the run but next week gets tougher. I know I can do it and I know Catie can do it too, we just have to keep motivating each other and being there for each other.
I downloaded another calorie counter app just to see if the 2 would be similar in what they said I should be doing at my current level. Yuppers. Each had me eating approx. 1200 calories each day for my height, weight age, and activity level. I do think I need to be drinking more water or in my case crystal light tea/lemonade but I usually get around 64 oz. in each day and boy am I visiting the little girl's room often.
I have not seen a change in the scale in the last few days and none of my pants are ready to fall off me yet, but I do think that my physical appearance has changed for the better. I know I am building muscle in my legs and torso because I can feel it after my runs. I am not sore but I can feel it during my stretches. I do wish the results were more extreme but I know they will come in time and no matter how much weight or inches I lose I am a healthier me and really that is the most important issue here.
Awesome job!!!! I am one week ahead of you and maybe some of my posts will help you prepare for the next week..... I have a video diary blog at http://www.livefullout.info that you may find helpful.
ReplyDeleteThis is all mental really.... so don't let your mind talk you out of anything! You can do it!
can you share the calorie counter apps you are using? I need to get better at tracking this. I'm not eating bad but I'm not eating well. that is to say that I am probably taking way too few calories in my day. Thanks in advance.
ReplyDeleteI should mention that I too completed W2D3 tonight.
ReplyDeleteI am using "Lose It!" and "My Net Diary" both for ipod. Both also have online tracking sites but I have only signed up for the Lose It! one I may do the other one as well. Thanks for the support and if you are not getting updates, I have added the subscribe to posts that seems to work. For instance if you use yahoo, you will see updates on the "My Yahoo" page :)
ReplyDeleteSusan I will definitely check out your blog too, the more we can help each other, the better!
ReplyDeleteWoot! keep it up Ramon!
ReplyDeleteyay! we have the same mindset....I am on week 4 and maybe can help do. I am documenting my progress also including weekly recipes and songs that keep me runnin'.
