My Weight Loss

Well, my foot is feeling better but still hobbling along.

The only way to keep weight done is through diet alone.  So I have to be careful what I eat.

Weight: 249.2

My left foot feels a lot better.  I highly suspect this swelling was triggered by something I ate, which is gout related, the cold weather, my lowered immune system due to a cold I have, the record cold weather, and maybe the stepped pine cone I did a week ago.

It does feel better, so I think I will be back to something more aerobic than just pushups and situps.

This weigh in was again done at night with more clothing than usual after dinner.

Weight: 252.4

This foot issue I am having is a huge setback.

I can’t workout, I barely can do pushups and situps. 

Hopefully this will get better in the next 48 hours and I will be running normally again.

Don’t look too much into the weigh in, it was at night after dinner with no workout.  Basically the heaviest moment of the day.

Weight: 254.6

So its been a bad day.  My left foot is now swollen, I think it is something I ate combined with the cold weather that caused this which I think may be gout.

If that is the case it will be couple days before I can run again.

Weight: 251.6

Today I did not run outside due to safety issues.  Recall that my left foot is in a little pain, more on that in a bid, so running on a sidewalk or road where it is slippery for both car and runner is not  good idea.  Instead, I did some aerobic video, and called it that.

So I stepped on a pine cone a few days ago when I was running in the dark and it really hurt my left foot.  I thought it was going to go away, but lately it has been in pain.  I think it may be gout triggered not by my diet but possibly by the cold weather.  I have been eating well so it is hard for me to accept that it is my diet.  But it could be.

Anyway, I am posting this late Saturday,  I am extremely optimistic and cracking 250 tomorrow.  It will be the fourth day I will be under 250 and it is a weekend, so I would have met my criteria.

Weight: 246.8

Judging by today’s weigh, I think this 4 day run will be the run that will put me under 250 permanently.  I am starting to see the positive effects of tracking my diet.

I mentioned 4 days w/ at least one of them being a weekend.

Today’s weigh in is my official weigh in.  But I did weigh in again at night and it was higher but still under 250, just barely 249.8.  Then I ate dinner so I am sure I am above 250 by now.  Hopefully I can make it though.  Tomorrow I want to do a 4+ in the morning but my left foot was hurting.  Some medication mitigates the pain though,

Weight: 247.8

A little late post but still OK.

I went to work early today and worked out in the gym there.  I burned a little over 1000 calories.  Add to that the 2 miles of walking for the bus and I was in negative calorie category in thedailyplate.com.  That site takes a lot of work but it does the job.  Although I almost forgot to post here.

I got a really good feeling with this weekend.
