I’m not sure what to think this week.
I started out by changing how and what I ate. That’s going well, and it’s going to take some time for it to become a lifestyle for me. My workouts have been going well. I’m doing strength training 3-4 times a week and I’m trying to run everyday, if I can. I got a Nike+ setup, and it is awesome.

Sara Beth told me about it a while ago and I made fun of her. I thought it was a dumb idea. However, it turns out that I was wrong and she is right. Not only does it track your runs and gives you data to look at and compare later, it gives you realtime info on how your doing. Tom, Martha & I are trying to run 150 mi before the wedding (July 11). I think it’s possible. Nike+ has turned running into something of a game for me, which helps (because I hate running).

So, lets get to it, the results for this week. It hasn’t felt like a good one, physically, but maybe there was progress. Here it is:

I was: 230 lbs

I am: 235 lbs

I’m a little discouraged by this. And by a little, I mean a good bit. I don’t really understand how my body works. I think the increase in cardio and running will help a lot, or so I hope. I’m trying not to get down on myself about this because I know I can do better. I just have to keep my head down and keep pushing. I refuse to quit on something I know I need to do.

One.Love

    Yeah, bodies can be stupid. I don’t understand either how you can bust your butt in a workout and barely see any results from it.

    Oh well, keep it going bro….

    YOU CAN DO IT!!!
