Hump Day

It's day 7 of my workout commitment. My wife and I both skipped Sunday, so we've worked out 6 days so far. Regardless of the fact that this morning was a struggle to get on that damn elliptical and go for 20 minutes, I do feel good about what I'm doing. I've had more energy, felt more focused at work, slept better, and didn't feel quite as droppy as I have in the past month or so. I'm trying to figure out how to get yoga channels (for free) using our Roku, and will likely look into that again tonight.

God I'm hungry. Time to cook some eggs!

Day 7:
Weight: 251
Exercise: Elliptical up to 3.5 miles now in 20 minutes

Day 2

20 minutes of elliptical again this morning, this time was energized by listening to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, so I got 3.5 miles instead of the 2.5 I got yesterday. That's it.

So we meet again...

Oh good gravy it's been a while. Since last Summer?! And, as one could imagine, I've done next to nothing healthy during that time. I mean sure, I've been cooking more at home, but sometimes we'll go weeks without a fresh cooked meal. And don't even ask when the last time I worked out was... So we're trying to change that starting today.

For my wife's birthday, she said she wanted us to get healthy together and make that her present. So, two weeks after her birthday (because hey, we're both procrastinators), we're getting started. A 45 day workout commitment. Every day. At least 20 minutes.

So, starting today, I'll be blogging again, more to keep myself accountable than to update the maybe 2 people who will ever read this.

Weight: 252
Workout: Elliptical for 20 minutes, went 2.52 miles.

Now, I need some breakfast; I really need some protein. Eggs, a bit of cheese, english muffin, grape jelly it is. And coffee. Precious coffee.
