Quick Update, Workouts and Weight Loss

I just got done with a quick workout. I am circuit training now every M, W, F starting last Wednesday. I am in week 2 of 16 weeks and am already feeling a lot stronger. I have purchased a pullup bar for the door frame and resistance bands. Both items are working out very well. As of Monday last week I was 210.5 pounds and this morning I weighed in at 208. 2 pounds gone in the first week is not bad, especially when I missed 2 of my 4 runs and 1 of my 3 workouts last week due to weather. I am expecting more weight loss by Monday of next week. The first goal is to get under 200 pounds. I will reward myself at that point. Now I just need to think of a good reward to work towards.

It looks like this week will be a lot of squeezing in workouts. I have a whirlwind tour or Long Island, upstate NY, Vermont, Massachusetts, and then New Hampshire before I finally head back home on Thursday. I dont think I will get my run in tomorrow but I am not going to sweat it because I plan on skiing for a couple hours on Wednesday afternoon (about 2400 calories burnt). I will get my 1.5 miles in no problem on Thursday morning unless I am too sore from skiing.

The main focus for this week will be eating well. It is hard to squeeze in meals and to make them healthy while on the road. Hopefully Subway will come to my rescue and I plan on packing some trail mix and fruit for snacks.

Until Wednesday,

Clint
