Even when I was in my best shape I coudldn't do chin ups, lol!
I actually dusted off the resistance band last night and played around a little bit. Not too bad.

there is that possibility, cookster. either way, the solution is push fluids, pee it through and keep cranking towards the goal.
to that end, twinnings lemon & ginger caffeine free herb tea is just smashing with a dollop of honey.

^^Now that I'd like to see!
Note to self - Lean Cuisine Sweet and Sour Chicken = blech. Tastes like rice with melted orange lollipops.
I like the sodium-laden frozen entrees for lunch a couple of times a week to keep the calorie intake in check. But I won't have this one again. Thank goodness I have a salad and some fruit for a snack later.
This morning - Ran three miles. Did killer abs. Did the upper body stuff on the Bowflex.
I'm sooore.

I've gained 5 pounds in two days.
I didn't even know that was possible, but somehow I managed.
And now it will take me probably two weeks to lose it again.
That ticks me off.

colleen - that may be just fluctuation or temporary water weight. Seems too short a time span to actually have gained "permanent" weight. I gained 3 pounds last week, and realized it was a direct reult of errrm - "Flo." Drank lots of water and it came right off. Not sure if that's your situation, but bottom line - just work out a little extra and drink a lot of water and it will probably drop back down to normal - hang in there!
Cookie - yes, it's a good sore indeed!

Posted: 3/2/07 at 10:45amweek three starts on monday. as it is i took today off as i have a three kleenex box cold and decided that sleep was more beneficial than sweat in this instance. i am noticing a slight difference under my chin. there's also unconfirmed reports that the slight cleft in my chin that was filled in many moons ago by twinkies and blue ribbons may be re-emerging.

part 3 of the 40 days of shedding the gut (starting 05mar07)
206lb this morning. if you don’t run, you don’t lose. simple as that. damn the fever.
this should be an interesting week. i took a crapload of time off last week as i was sick as a dog. no hurling or explosive diarrhea, fortunately, just a high fever, tonsils the size of limes (yeah i still have 'em) and night sweats. so we're going to chalk last week up as a partial week and just power ahead. my knees weep already.

(you'll note there's no w there. that's because i have my writing class on tuesday night and get home around 11pm. by the time i chill out enough to sleep it's always midnight and i am just too lazy and old to try to live on less than 5 hours of sleep unless it's absolutely necessary. in other words, unless i stay out drinking until 5am and have to be at work at 9. that's generally unplanned.)
