Thanks for the great words! Your support is great!

sorry to hear you're struggling a bit.

If i may through in my little two cents here: You will break that threshold! However, you'll need to get your off plan eating on track. You know me fairly well now, and we both know how much i love mexican and chinese and real pancakes. So i definitely understand the off plan eating. But make sure you are planning those meals and that its a meal not a day of off plan eating. Eating off plan, while rewarding and sometimes necessary to make this plan a true lifestyle change, should be an on occasion situation. If you know weekends are harder for you, then you'll need to plan plan plan and remind yourself before u take one bite that you're trying to get under 300. Is this bite/meal/thing worth another week of relosing weight i already lost? Is it worth NOT breaking the 300 threshold? At the end of the day the decision is yours and you will always have my support. But don't let a little taste cheat you from your goals! /two cents.

little3chordme · 03-04-2009, 12:36 PM

Flipz · 03-04-2009, 12:54 PM

lol yep! Starting tonight I start my night run also. Going to do a quick 2 mile run before bed everynight. If I run around my neighborhood it is exactly 1.1 miles. I will do 2 laps everynight now. Then do 5 miles on treadmill in the morning.

NuttyNeeta · 03-04-2009, 01:35 PM

i read your journal and never post, but dang man.. I'm so HAPPY you broke the 300's!! It's a good feeling isn't it?!! Keep up the good work.

Flipz · 03-05-2009, 11:47 AM

Thanks! It does feel great. Feels like it is really working this time.

Flipz · 03-06-2009, 09:32 AM

Skipped workout this am. Too sore from practice last night. Need to recoop a bit. I will be back in the gym tomorrow morning.

B: 3 fried eggs, 3 piecs of sausage
L: Chicken breast seasoned with Crio seasoning. lettuce, cucumbers
D: Rotisserie chicken

little3chordme · 03-07-2009, 06:40 AM

rest up! are practices as painful as tournaments? that bruise still haunts me.

have a lovely weekend!

Flipz · 03-07-2009, 02:45 PM

Sometimes they can be. All depends , hehe. Most time I get a small bruise maybe at most. Only have a couple small ones right now. well, and a broken knuckle lol. ANother tourney on March 14th.

chantyl03 · 03-07-2009, 03:16 PM

you have a broken knuckle!??!

Flipz · 03-07-2009, 04:49 PM

Yep. No biggie. It will heal

I have most of my movement in it too. hehe. Funny part is, the knuckle is huge!! I got no practice sunday or next thursday so it has a week and a half to heal so I am good. If it doesnt heal in time, duct tape will cover it while I fight!

Flipz · 03-09-2009, 07:39 AM

This is gonna be a good week!

4.2 miles run this morning.

Made my lunches and snacks for the whole week yesterday.

I am going on a strict 2 weeks and no weighing also. I want to see what I can do in 2 weeks.
4-5 miles run every morning. 2-3 miles walk every night. and NO OFF CRAP FOOD!

little3chordme · 03-09-2009, 08:25 AM

ouch! broken knuckle! hope it's healing well.

nice planning ahead, looks delish. i unforunately did not plan ahead and will have to wait for lunch til 3pm, aaaaargh! at least i had a cheese stick and some sunflower seeds at work to tide me over

Flipz · 03-09-2009, 08:43 AM

Thanks! Going to try a very strict 2 weeks to see how well it goes. Knuckle is healing fine. I can bend it now

chantyl03 · 03-09-2009, 05:49 PM

ok that lime jello is my new fav..along with black cherry...yummo!

Flipz · 03-10-2009, 09:37 AM

Ran 3 miles last night and another 4.2 this morning! Day 2 of eating clean is on its way. I love the jellos also. Great snack.

Flipz · 03-11-2009, 07:19 AM

Ran 4.7 miles last night and another 4.2 miles this morning. breakfast was 3 fried eggs in butter, 4 pieces of sausage and water. Have much lunch I made sunday that is 2 hamburger patties, salad with cucumber, and sf jello. Snack I have pepperoni and a pickle( great combo huh

).

I am set! No workout tonight. Spending time with my kids. But will be back at double workout tomorrow!

not going to weigh in for atleast another week and a half. Going 2 weeks before I weigh again.

little3chordme · 03-11-2009, 09:08 AM

you are strong willed not to weight for 2 weeks!! i would never last that long, i'm an addict... but it will be that much more exciting when you see your awesome results.

do you run outside or on a treadmill? i've only tried the treadmill once, walking and it scared me, lol. i was thinking of doing the c25k thingy outside once it warms up a bit more.

woah it's hump day already, have a good one!

Flipz · 03-11-2009, 09:16 AM

I do the treadmill for now, but will switch to outside when it gets warmer. I like the treadmill since I set up mini challanges for myself. Like when I am 2.75 miles into it I push myself to 3 mile marker since at 3 miles I slow it down to 4 mph walk. I drove my car around my neighborhood and it is exactly 1.1 miles from doorstep to doorstep around the block so I will be doing that in the morning instead of the gym this summer to save on some cash.

What is c25k?

little3chordme · 03-11-2009, 12:10 PM

couch to 5k? i think that's the abbreviation for it... the program where you progressively start running... for non-runners like me lol. the first week is like 5 1 minute "runs" within a half hour of walking i think. i found a podcast that tells you when to start and stop running... for me it'll be jogging first.
