Challenging Myself to Keep Up

Trula — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 20:56:27 +0000

I have really let winter depression get ahold of me, most notably in not sticking to my exercise routine. I know that is one of the sure things to keep me abreast of this funk, that and getting outside each and every day for sunlight. Today I have gone outside and strolled around, but not in any real way what anyone would call exercise. I’m going to go out again today and really stomp around for 30 minutes after work.

Walking & Light

Trula — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 11:53:00 +0000

It’s heading into winter here so the days are getting shorter and shorter. On the days I have to work at my job, I’m going to start walking during my lunch because it’s the only time I’ll have to get sunlight as I leave for work in the morning and back at night. Basically all you need is 15-30 minutes of direct sunlight every day. As I also tend to suffer from winter depression due to decreased sunlight as well as still needing to lose weight, this is of added importance to me. So since I only get a 30 minute lunch, I will have to quickly eat something then head on out.

Walking & So Forth

Trula — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:39:00 +0000

Exercise, exercise, exercise. I’ve been walking a lot, running a little. Both make me feel…just grand. I love exercise! getting back into yoga slowly also, I just started up my morning routine again. Yoga has a way of helping me focus my day to be soft and smooth. It helps me carry my emotional atmosphere with me wherever I go.

Day 58 Cleveland Marathon 2008 Training

Trula — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 17:47:00 +0000

Oh my, I have been slacking off and sometimes over eating, which has resulted in me gaining back 4 pounds since last check-in. I have no excuses and anyway if I did, they’re really not valid. So, back into training. The past couple of weeks I have been running but not consistently or frequently; only 4 runs in the last 12 days or so. It has been snowing a lot here; some days so heavily I really could not drive to the gym nor felt it was safe to go running outside. However I still could and can exercise indoors. Today I did a 3mile power walk Leslie Sansone video, then her 1mile run.

A major change I’m doing with my routine is adding yoga right before bedtime as well as first thing in the morning. As you probably know I do yoga both to de-stress as well as for exercise. I’ve been working a lot lately and have quite a bit on my mind, so I think this will help a lot both for fitness and inner peace. A major change I’m doing with food is changing my cut-off eating time to 7pm from 8pm. I found myself stuffing quite a bit of food in from 7-8pm, but the way I’m currently working will prevent such stuffing from 6-7pm. Basically it’s a psychological issue so I’m doing whatever I can to psyche myself out from falling back into overeating. Overeating is no longer a way of life for me or a desired option for me anymore.

20 pounds to knock off before the marathon! I can do this

Today’s Health Goals:
Yoga 30 minutes
Walk 3 miles
Run 1 mile
Drink 120 oz water
One serving meals, seconds declined
Minimal salt added to food
Raw veggies for snacks, apple for dessert
Food cut-off time: 7pm
Brush & floss after every meal
Today’s weigh-in: 150 pounds
Weight Goal: 130 pounds
