After my run I weighed in at 182.4 — whatever. So much for 170’s by February. I think I need to get my Bowflex Ultimate 2 up and running really soon so I can burn of more calories.
I can see this is going to take a bit longer then I through. That will be good for my patience.
I thought my 5.3km run would be hard today as I was kind of feeling a bit sore but it was easy as pie. The flesh rebels but as soon as I get out there it’s easy. It was quite windy today on the run but my hat has ear flaps so I was just fine.
A week from this coming Monday I plan on moving my run to 6km if my body can take it. I stopped pushing myself to see how fast I can do my run as they told me at the Running Room in London to just take my time as the longer I run the more fat burning time I get. I also spend 5 to 10 minutes walking off the run.
I am now using water instead of milk in my protein shakes and have cut my 28g of whey protein down to 14g until I start doing my weight training. I did this to cut down on calories.
My shakes used to be 180c of milk (2 cups), 120c of whey protein (28g), and 47c of Progressive VegeGreens (8.5g) for a total of 347 calories. Now them are 60c of whey protein (13g) and 47c of Progressive VegeGreens (8.5g) for a total of 107 calories. That makes a big difference of 240 calories which I will be able to use for snack calories.
Another thing I have noticed is that I have been tending to not drink a lot of water as I am trying to weigh in as low as I can. I just realized today I had been doing that so another thing that I have changed.
Started today the plan is to drink a cup of water first thing when I get up, one cup with each meal (3 cups), 1 cup when I take my vitamins, and 2 cups in my shake. For example today I only put one cup of water in my shake so I would weight 330 grams less when I weighed in after my run.
While I need to keep my eyes on my calorie intake and my weight, I shouldn’t be concerning about adding weight by drinking lots of water. They even say drinking lots of water helps you to lose weight.
