  • Personal Challenge completed

    I “finished” my Challenge today, so I think for the next one, I need to increase my goals. It’s especially good, since I started the challenge on a Monday, and “finished” on Thursday.

    The first thing I have to decide when to start the next one.

    I’ve met almost all my goals, and I am certain I will get the strength training knocked out tomorrow. Today was interesting … I had almost decided that I was going to “cheat” on the clean eating, but ended up not doing it. I ended up being 800 calories under goal after dinner, so after a 43 minute cardio session treated myself to a Subway toasted roast beef sandwich and some corn chips. And it was a nice treat. And I am still 100 calories under.

    FYI: Posting the challenge has really helped me stick to it, maybe more than the iShape Challenges.

    Much better today, not as tired and didn’t feel the need to eat. Didn’t get cardio started until after school but get it knocked out.

    Was exhausted today, and just started eating in the afternoon and couldn’t stop. I ended up about 200 calories over iShape.

    Tough exercise week, I’m doing 50 minutes of cardio almost every day. I’m having to break it up to do it successfully

    I actually thought today would be bad, because my agility group had their Christmas party today — yes, Christmas, but we were all too busy in January. It was nice though, because our organizer sent out a list of the food and I was able to plan. I ate two things I hadn’t planned, but they were still okay.

    And awesome news — I showed a very large weight loss on the scale.

    I’ve been very tired today, and ended up about 300 calories over plan which isn’t too bad. I did plan for a few days not Clean Eating

    Got a good night’s sleep last night, and am heading to bed now, but I’ve done two hours of dog agility and then drove through very high traffic roads to get home. Hard to fall asleep with this much adrenalin running through the system.

    I’ve on a good streak when it comes to weight loss. The blood sugar is low, and extremely stable. My insulin usage is down pretty low, though was a tad high today. In fact, have had to ward off (but not treat) some hypoglycemic episodes.

    Warding off means that I have the first symthoms of a drop in blood sugar, and that I have to shift meal times or eat extra to prevent a true low.
