and the amount of push-ups i was able to do on my initial test of 100 push ups. 17 was when i was in great shape from all the cycling i used to do. now i can’t walk up 5 flights of stairs without breathing hard. i still have a decent metabolism for my age… if i don’t overdo the sugary goodies
back in january, i weighed myself and i clocked in at 205. i bought a exercise bike and began riding everynight for 30 minutes. as of this past sunday i’m 188. i would weigh less, but there were some weeks i didn’t ride and/or i had junk food
another credit is the lose it! application for my Ipod. it’s a calorie counter, but it has a database of supermarket brands and resteraunt dishes. you can add your own foods and recipes as well. i’ve been using for the past several months and i enjoy it
as i write this, i feel a bit nauseous from the “intense” work-out
brian has also influenced my dietary choices, i’ve swtiched to activia yogurt. they’re 10 more calories than my previous choice, but much tastier. vanilla is my favorite, with cherry a close second
i’ve limited myself to one flavored drink at dinner; cranberry juice, iced tea, grapefruite juice or dr. pepper. if i’m thirsty later on, it’s water. i save money on drinks and save caloires on my body
