Jogging #8: Stubbornness 1, Lizard 0

[serinde]

My st00pid lizard brain attempted to short-circuit me, by which I mean there was another exciting episode of Alarm Clock Fail. Woke up at ten past six instead of 5:20, beat head into pillow, froze for a moment, and said GODDAMMIT WILL DO ANYWAYS. So I get the late train, so fucking what.

I curtailed my warm-ups and got the job done. It's ass-cold again; did not cover up my mouth and nose this time, and it seemed okay, but now that I'm sitting down and cooling off I have a little tiny recurring cough. It'll go away.

I don't feel like my endurance is getting better yet--3 minutes "running", ha ha, is still awfully hard. How long does it taaaaaake?

Down 3.5 lbs from yesterday, which had been back up to starting point. o_O

If you're going to be obsessively weighing yourself every day, then at least do what I do: stick the numbers into a spreadsheet and keep a 30-day running average.

That way, gaining weight in one day doesn't look so bad when you compare it to the trend.

(40lb down and still going here...)

Oh, I know, and I do--I'm using the convenient Hacker's Diet online plotter thingie. I'm just woeful because my peanut butter habit is stifling my recovery.

Happy birthday, btw. :) Now you're two years older than me...for a couple of months anyway.

Thanks! :D

Happy Birthday? But your birthday's on my calendar. See? It's right there and it's not until the 20th. OMG that is TODAY! What happened to February when I wasn't looking?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you have a great one!

(And bravo on the running & the weight loss.)

My morning mantra is "You get what you settle for." I know where not exercising leads...and I know what needs to be done for a more healthy body.

Go stubborn!
