Major catch-up

Well, I didn't post for another week and I am forced to do another major update of everything.

Exercise still has not been as regular as I would like. This is due in part to the fact that I ate too much candy on Halloween and the next few days and felt like I was going to puke even before I had exercised.

We did run on Tuesday 10.29.07 but we did not run on Thursday. Oh well.

My resolution over the next month is to make sure that the exercise schedule gets more regular and we have a higher incidence of actually sticking to it.

Day 19, 20, 21,... 26...

Well, there went a whole week of not posting. That is not to say that nothing happened in my quest for health. It just means that nothing good happened. I did do some exercises, though not as regularly as I would like, and we still haven't really gotten on the running bandwagon again. Casie has not been eating very well and we haven't been eating well as a couple either. This has bad effects as I'm sure anyone in a relationship can testify.

Oh well, this next week is the start of my new job so I am hoping that things will calm down a little and I will be able to start regularly exercising.

Day 18...

Today was a great day as far as the whole exercise thing goes. I ran today and I did some pull-ups. I did only a total of 5 pull-ups today (1 set of 3, another of 2).

...and then I ate a burger and seasoned curly fries. Good for me.

Day 17...

Today was pretty good. I DID NOT get to run AGAIN but, things will start to come together. As our life stabilizes a little bit exercise will get easier. Anyway, dinner was not great for us but not terrible either. Plus I didn't eat too much of it which goes a long way.

Day 16...

Well today was a bigger success than my past few have been. I ate a reasonably sized dinner, even if its contents were not healthy at all, and I worked out.

I did my push-ups but I did not do my sit-ups because I worked out at the exercise room instead. Kicking and kneeing a punching bag actually works out your abs more than you would think.

Tomorrow, we are back on our running routine. It will be a bit frustrating for me and my wife as we are going to have to do 3 more runs at the current level because we took another break. I think this will make the fourth or fifth time that we have run this set because of breaks. Each time we slide back a little farther. Oh well. just have to keep on working I guess.

Day 15...

Well, yesterday was a total wash as far as my intentions to work out. I started talking to Melanie and by the time I got off the phone, it was too late to go running. Unfortunately, I was not feeling very well yesterday so I didn't even do my push-ups or sit-ups. No good.

I just have to make sure that it gets done tomorrow I guess. I have to get back on the running pattern or I will never achieve my goal.

Day 12, 13, 14...

So much for my resolution to post everyday. I still want to do that but I think that I need some more routine in my life.

For both day 12 and 13, I have been incredibly sore. I went to the exercise room on day 12 and did a 45 minute workout that was fairly intense. That was a mistake. It has been about 1 1/2 years since my last round like that. I have been very very sore.

Oh well, I have kept my work-outs up and on schedule but not my running. That changes on Monday. I am feeling stronger every day and hopefully I will increase my pull-up capacity.

I still have not had any dessert since I decided to give it up until Halloween.
