Setup my goals
So I found my old measurements from Sept 5 so I decided to add them on here and use the weight I was at that time as my starting weight just so I can get started with trackers and things like that. I inputed my measurements from that day and did them for today. Good news is that I haven't gotten any bigger so thats a relief. I went from weighing myself every single morning till the day my scale broke so I've been kinda scared. Measurements have only changed a little.
Neck: SAME
L. Bicep: -1 inch
L. Forearm: +.5 inches
Chest: SAME
Waist: SAME
Hips: SAME
L. Thigh: -.75 inches
L. Calf: -.5 inches
So in all I've lost 1.75 inches in the past 2 months and I haven't really been trying. I'm just glad I didn't gain any in the waist, hips, and thigh area. Big relief. Still haven't gotten a new scale yet. Like I said probably will be this weekend. I did setup my goals and I used the weight I have logged from Sept 5. My long term goal is to get down to what EP calls a NORMAL weight for my height and I calculated it by saying I'd lose 2 pounds a week and I have it ending June 29. My short term goal is to get under 200 by my 24th birthday with is on Valentine's Day. That would be a HUGE present to myself.
So I just got this like running journal in the mail today. Its called RUNNER'S WORLD TRAINING JOURNAL. It says its "A daily dose of motivation, training tips & running wisdom for every kind of runner -- from fitness joggers to competitive racers." It's really cool. It's basically a running log and has a spot for every day of the week and has 52 weeks in here. It's great because it's not dated so you can start your year whenever. It has a spot for you to put your route, your distance, your time, any notes about the run/walk, and a spot for if you did any other exercise that day. There is also a spot at the end of the week for any notes or for like a weigh-in. I'm really excited about it. I'll start this monday since their week starts monday. Plus I'll get back from Thankgiving weekend on Sunday so Monday would be a great day to start. There is also a Tip of the Week on here and a bit of nutrition advise.
Well I think I've written enough for now. I'll probably post another blog tomorrow and then you won't here from me till Sunday or Monday because the in-laws don't have internet so I don't even bother taking my computer down there.
