Weigh in day 6/11/09

Another kinda slow week, weight loss wise - I lost 0.8 lbs. My mom said she thinks there are certain weights that your body gets stuck at, whether you're going up or going down. If that's true, I think my body likes to get stuck in the neighborhood of 192 - I remember being at that weight for a long time, and being stuck there when I tried to lose weight a couple of years ago. But, at least I'm going down. Also, I recently started working out every day. I told myself that since I'm unemployed and sitting around the house I have no excuse not to get a workout in every day. I have exercised for the last 5 days in a row. I set an initial goal of exercising every day for a week, and so far it's going pretty well. Mainly I have been cycling. There's a cycling/walking trail just outside my neighborhood. If I ride the whole thing and do this one part of it twice, I get a 50 minute ride by the time I get back home. And the trail has many challenging parts - lots of hills to struggle up, where I can feel my heart pounding. Since weight loss always seems to be delayed I hope that at next week's weigh in I'll see some results from all this working out. As for staying on points, on Friday I pigged out and ate slightly over my weekly points, but I stayed within my points all the rest of the days and by the end of the week I had extra activity points. But it would probably help not to go over my weeklies. Also, I've begun incorporating more veggies into my diet, and drinking more water. So this week I'm going to try not to go over my weeklies, to exercise every day, and to continue eating more veggies and drinking more water. Hopefully I'll get into the 180's sometime soon!
