I'm annoyed. The furlough is delayed or cancelled, so while us gummint workers are still lambasted in a full rejection of the free-market economy theory as applied to employment's market, I don't at least get the sleep in ability of the public scorn.
I'm annoyed. While not dieting, I've been eating less candy, drinking less booze, cooking more and restauranting less, skipping appetizers, and sharing deserts...and after losing 2 lbs I gained them right back. Oh, and I've been running 2-4 miles almost every day to the detriment of my other programs. I weighed in at 147 this AM...really?
Granted, some of my max weights are going up so some has to be muscle sure - but for all that discipline I don't seem to fit my pants any better and it's not due to my huge washboard ripping my pants. No, it's just continued flub. I mean would I be worse if I wasn't under control? Or if I would be the same, I'd rather return to my beer and chocolate diet. This kinda sucks.

Date: 2011-03-04 01:41 pm (UTC)I stopped drinking for the month of January. (There was an exception for two nights that dealt with my birthday, but otherwise nothing.)
I ate no chocolate, cookies, or ice cream.
I gained 2 lbs.
In February I went back to my beer, whiskey, and bourbon.
I also made it to the gym a bit more after going to a chiro;
I dropped a pound by the end of the month.
*shrug* (note: I also changed up my workout, got off the reclining bike and doubled my time on the elliptical using the arms. That is kicking my ass and may be behind the weight loss.)
I still can't run for fuck; the treadmill controls flummux me and the staff at the gym seem to have no clue, though the mercenaries...err...trainers are all happy to help...for a price.

Date: 2011-03-04 07:52 pm (UTC)I had some squat injuries, many of which I found were based on my poor flexibility and failure to rest enough. It never hurts to re-read some of the "how to squat" pointers online for they often explain where problems occur and how to remedy the things such as flexibility.
Squats are good training for being overseas and/or drunk in an alley.
