riding more...

in one week i went from not riding since 2/2011 to riding 10 miles. not bad, but not close to satisfied either. my brain and body are wired for competition. my brain knows what i'm capable of when i lose the weight. my body, as of now, isn't really cooperating. i try to only weigh myself once a week but it looks like another week where i don't lose much. i'm riding more and eating less junk than i did last week but i'm still eating too much fat.

that said, i have replaced all the items i could with their low fat counterparts. examples are turkey sausage, egg whites, low fat cheese etc. i have started to pack my lunches in the 1 cup size containers. this really helps portion control seeing as how it's the size of my stomach. friday i could start having raw veggies and solid meat. so i had thai spring rolls for dinner last night. one my absolute favorites. i plan on having steak at some point this weekend too. well "some" steak LOL...

i got a new toy, my garmin forerunner 910xt... i love it. plus it motivates me to workout more. my arms hurt big time after the dumbbell workout so i haven't done weights since last sunday. now that i'm healed, AND it's supposed to rain today, i'll be doing weights today. my journey's not a sprint but a marathon...
