Today, I realized two things: 1) Slipping into the diet before January (my original pre-blog plan) will be difficult with all the people shoving holiday celebration food in front of me, and 2) I haven't had a Pepsi in about a week. This means that I have happily accomplished one thing-- cessation of caffeine consumption-- and failed at another-- jumpstarting my diet. As the latter has only placed me behind by a couple days, I won't hold it against myself this time. But kicking the Pepsi habit was more of a fluke. Snow and ice have kept me holed up here for a week without my fix!
I did, however, complete one full set of anaerobics today. Yesterday, I had forgotten in my previous goal that the set for Day 2 would be Lower Body, and that routine is twice as long as the Upper Body, so I only finished one set. Today, I doubled my Upper Body workout to two sets. As a result, I lazed about with sore pecs and shoulders, watched crappy movies with a friend, and didn't do much aerobics.
I know we women have pecs, but I would tentatively call pecs the least utilized muscles in a woman's body. We're not hardwired for butterfly presses, apparently. Just going by the soreness, though.
GOAL: JUMPSTART DIET, JANUARY 1st... 2 sets of Lower Body Anaerobics on Day 4 (when I get up, not now!)
With over 100 pounds to lose, PCOS rearing its ugly head, and tons of other possible health problems, I've decided to share my progress, one scale shot at a time. I share my weight, opinions, recipes, plans and progress here and on my Facebook page.
