An active day
EXERCISE: None to speak of today. I thought about doing my 15 minutes on the bike before leaving to my meeting, but I usually sweat for an hour after I bike, and I really wasn’t feeling like sweating through my meeting. However, I was highly active today, up and down the stairs multiple times doing… Continue reading An active day
A restful day
EXERCISE: I didn’t make it onto my bike today. I only had a little while before Nell came for yoga after waking up. We did a lovely yoga routine with Anna Guest-Jelley over at Curvy Yoga. I spent some time reading under the fan in my bedroom today too. DIET: I didn’t eat enough for… Continue reading A restful day
Grilling out
EXERCISE: Once again I rode Sally for 15 minutes. I burned 242.8 kcal, rode for 4.2 miles, with a top speed of 24.8 miles. I have been having a difficult time fitting in a Yamuna routine to roll out my hamstrings, so I am going to try tomorrow rolling right after I scoop the litter… Continue reading Grilling out
Not up!
WEIGH IN: I weighed in at 276.1 pounds today, 0.8 pounds more than last week. This is despite all my 15 cycling sessions on Sally! Food makes a difference! My sugar slide began with sesame tofu, continued with vanilla ice cream, and ended in my grandmother’s blueberry crumb pie. Ok, so lesson learned. This week… Continue reading Not up!
Dinner Party

DIET: I ate on diet for breakfast (smoothie) and lunch (fruit with nut butter) and some of dinner… Continue reading Dinner Party

DIET: For breakfast I just ate a banana, so I could take my meds and get on the bike. It wasn’t enough.… Continue reading Off center
Back on track

I was able to keep my base speed around 16 mph today. No yoga today, my only other exercise was carrying books into the bookstore… Continue reading Back on track
sugar blues
EXERCISE: The Chinese meal of sesame tofu gave me a bad case of the sugar blues this morning. While I did ride my bike for 15 minutes, I was hovering 14 mph not 17 mph. As a result, my distance was 3.6 miles, and I only burned 206.1 kcal. However, a friend came over for… Continue reading sugar blues
