I'm definitely the tortoise

Well I have been keeping on as I've posted previously. Food change in my life is getting harder, because I'm getting a bit bored with some of the food. The problem is that I'm not a veggie eater, I only like them raw, so carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and celery, raw, is getting really old, especially without some ranch...man I miss the feel of fat in my mouth. The gym schedule has been chaotic, everytime I say I'm going to start hitting it hard again, something happens. Yesterday would have been the day I pushed over the hump and got back "into it" but I hurt my back at work...thing serious, but I just didn't want to take any chances on hurting it more at the gym so my wife and I went on a long walk when I got home, so at least I did something.

Weight loss due to all this has been slower, obviously, but there has been more lost. I've lost another 3 pounds in 2 weeks, not great, but I'm focusing on the fact that I lost and didn't hold even or gain. So, I have a 1 week vacation and I plan on really pushing hard, getting back into hard working habits, it will just have to wait until Monday :( There is a 3 day conference in Fresno this weekend so the next time I can get to the gym will be Sunday afternoon, but I will try to sneak in a few leg raises, push-ups and squats - who needs weights, if I just do squats I'm pushing over 200 pounds with my legs and it will help strengthen my knees which need it desparately.

  1. I found this new ranch dressing it was at Winco in the cold section next to the salad bags.... it is called Bolthouse Dressing they use yogurt instead of mayo for the base....it is super good, and 60 cals, 5 grams of fat for the same serving, but its good...
