Fluctuating through the New Year

Sometimes I think I am my own worst critic and that I tend to guilt trip myself over minuscule offenses. I guess this is probably a good thing and a bad thing. I’ve been feeling guilty that I haven’t really either had the time to work out or the impetus to work out very much [...]

From the Hip

I’m closing in on the one year mark of my journey into health, fitness and vegetarianism. I started Weight Watchers a week after New Years. Its been an interesting journey to say the least — one which I wish I had embarked on much much sooner.

The journey has not come without its challenges. Modifying my [...]

Post Meat Consumption Update + Abs & Core Galore

Post Meat Consumption Update
I’m two weeks into pescetarian mode and haven’t run into any major obstacles yet. Although, I need to rethink my work lunch strategy, since going pescetarian it eliminated probably about 90% of the frozen lunch/packaged crap options since each brand has a very small amount of vegetarian/fish/seafood options. I’m not saddened to [...]

Ups and Downs

Once again my weight is fluctuating. Fridays, weight has me down to 162, with fluctuations up to 164 over the weekend. I’m getting close to the 40 pounds lost milestone. One of the things that I have come to realize is that my metabolism has changed. This is why I am losing weight when I [...]

Weight and Fitness Check

I’ve started weighing myself daily, more out of curiosity than obsessiveness, to see what my actual weight range is over the course of a week. My average on the high side is 165, while my low is 163. I seem to be skipping over 164 altogether. Its just fascinating to me, I’ve noticed my weight stays around the high for a few weeks then drops to the lower weight and stays there for a few weeks and so on and so forth.

Health & Fitness Blog Feed

I’ve been chronicling my health and fitness journey since January 2009 in random places mostly in Livejournal and Facebook and decided to compile all the information here on my blog since both Facebook and Livejournal require login/password and friending in order to access the information I have posted on my journey. I have to say, [...]

Health & Fitness: Yoga and Beyond

I’ve been meaning to write a follow up the the piece I wrote on Health & Fitness: Dieting awhile back because I get a lot of questions on a regular basis on dieting and fitness. I’m no expert by any means and different things work for everyone. The best I advice I can give is [...]

Weight Logging for 5/1/09

I think my weight fluctuations were due in part to my fibroids acting up. Last weekend I settled in around 174. Today, settled in at 171, which is awesome. I weighed myself yesterday morning and was hanging around 176. I’ll keep an eye on it, but I think I am making progress.

I picked up some small at [...]

Health Babble

I think my sinus infection is *finally* disepating, which is a good thing seeing as I just finished up the antibiotics for it. I really need to practice the various methods of deep breathing associated with yoga. Its hard to do when you can’t breathe through your nose.

I’m kicking ass at sticking to a daily exercise [...]

More Fitness Babble

I got another yoga dvd from netflix yesterday. Apparently, there is some use of beginners that I am previously unaware of lol. I think it was from Yoga Journal’s dvd series. It wasn’t bad, it was just a lot faster and a lot more up and down than I was prepared for. I got the hang [...]
