So, I haven't been recording my activity on here as of late, but I think I should, so now I am. (Exciting sentence, eh?)

The bulk of this exercise will be "brisk" or "exercise" walking. I am a quick walker and enjoy walking, so I should be able to keep it up. Occasionally, I might do a water workout (running in the water--like treading water), actual running, snowshoeing, or tennis or something.

I walked the library loop--up Nemoke Trail, across Marsh, up Franklin, right on Hallendale, etc. I even stopped by the library to pick up some bedtime reading (a Thursday Next book).

The walk felt good, but I forgot how much harder it is to walk in a bunch of snow. I'm so glad that I bought those boots! Now my feet don't get wet and cold when I'm walking :)

So, anyhow, today was good, and I hope to walk for an hour or so almost every day.

The little beagle on the corner of Franklin Hallendale howled at me :)

Okay--so I've been avoiding the scale. I knew that I would do bad things over the holidays, especially when staying with family. I resisted temptation more than usual but still ended up eating more than my fair share of date balls, chocolate kiss peanut butter cookies, Chex Mix, and the like. I drank too much as well. But, I have been avoiding beer and drinking wine instead.

Anyway, it seems that in the two weeks I have avoided the scale, I have gained 2 lbs. Average weight gain for Americans over the holiday season is 10 lbs, so I didn't fair that badly.

I need to get serious about exercise and keep better track of what I am eating. I'd REALLY like to lose at least 10 lbs before the wedding (and 15 if possible).


RESOLUTIONS for 2010

1. Keep track of what I eat.
2. Eat more fruits and vegetables.
3. Drink less. Limit of drinks twice a week.
4. Put honey/sugar in my tea less often.
5. Walk AT LEAST 4 days a week for at least 30 minutes time.
6. Continue to weigh myself on weekly basis.
7. Plan my meals (especially dinner) in advance.
