Winter '10 - Day 23 of 52

Finally getting on track with my RTs!  I'm glad I've been able to hit the halfway mark on my goals ahead of the halfway mark in the challenge.  Another weekend with 3 hockey games, so I'll be done with my CT goals on Monday night!

Winter '10 - Day 19 of 52

We are a week away from the halfway point of this challenge.  Going to use this week to get all my goals to at least 50%...which really means finally doing some RTs this week.  I've got 2 scheduled for this week, so I should be ok.  Hoping to lose another pound to push my weight loss for the 5% challenge to 50%.

I lost a CE on Friday which was not planned, but I made up for it my eating clean during the football games this weekend...MAN WAS THAT HARD!!  After looking at my numbers, I'm glad I stayed on track.

I think I'm going to start the workout/diet plan of the TNT diet soon.  I'm in the process of tracking down the book at Barnes & Noble.  The two locations near me are out of stock and the closest one that does have it is a 30 minutes drive.  Which wouldn't be bad, but the only time I have to drive over there and get it would be after work....making it a 1.5 hour drive in rush hour!  :(  I may resort to ordering it online if I can't grab a copy by Wednesday.

Winter '10 - Day 15 of 52

Clean eats are coming along much easier this time around.  It's so much easier to give up soda after 2 weeks, I don't have to think about it anymore.  Tons of water really isn't that bad.  I was able to get in a very good RT last night, and I know I'm going to be really sore tomorrow.  After lifting it got me thinking that when I lift I'm just making it up as I go right now.  To continue on the right path and to have a goal in sight I'm going to need a little direction.  So, I'm looking at possibly getting a workout/diet book to help aid me from here on out.  I was thinking about the TNT Diet, Big Book of Exercises, or P90x.  Those are the 3 main ones that many people are talking about.  I've got to do a bit of research to see which would be most beneficial to me and something that will be easy to continue on after this challenge.

Winter '10 - Day 12 of 52

Finally had a cheat day for CE's during the Cowboy game.  Then lost another CE at night with a pitcher of beer due to the horrible performance of the Cowboy's O-line.  At least we beat Philly in the playoffs...small victories...I guess.  Still haven't been able to catch up on some RTs yet, I'm ready for that this week.

Hockey is going great, both teams I'm on are now in 1st place!  I'm averaging one point a game now, and I'm on a 5 game scoring streak!  Guess it's time to start cheering on the Mavericks and Stars!

Winter '10 - Day 9 of 52

Still rockin' the CEs!  But I've got a planned cheat this weekend for the COWBOY game!!  GO COWBOYS!!!  Still need to work on a plan to get more RTs into my schedule.  I'll have that knocked out this weekend.

Winter '10 - Day 7 of 52

Still on track with the clean eats!  I had a busy weekend with 3 hockey games (Saturday, Sunday and Monday).  I'm on track to easily hit my CT since I joined a second hockey league last week.  Going to have to work on getting my RTs in since most of my time will be for CTs now. 

It has only been a week since the challenge started, but I already feel more energetic and upbeat!  Things are looking great!

Winter '10 - Day 5 of 52

Been doing great with the clean eats and staying under 2000 calories a day!  CTs and RTs are ramping up and coming along great.  I'm 4/5 for days without soda.  I gave in and had a Dr. Pepper during the Cowboy game!!  GO COWBOYS!!

Winter '10 - Day 3 of 52

Still off to a great start with the clean eats.  It is much easier to stay disciplined this time around.  3 for 3 for days without soda, it's hard but I'm able to manage so far with orange juice, milk and water.

Winter '10 - Day 1 of 52

Off to a good start with the clean eats.  I'm used to having at least 1 Dr. Pepper a day, so trying to go 30 days without soda is going to be interesting.  My RT was helping a friend move some furniture to a 2nd story apartment.  Big couches are a pain to get up a flight of stairs with a turn around in the middle.
