Goal is to give up sugar. Gave it up for a time last year, and along with working out, lost 40 lbs, but I have recently started to eat too much sugar again.

Smaller portions of food for a smaller portion of me! It's the natural progression...

I've managed to keep at it all week and finally took a break yesterday. Waking up to workout before work all week caught up to me and I was exhausted. Decided to sleep in this morning but come this afternoon I'm going right back into it.

I'm staying strong and keeping to eating right and getting a good mix of Cardio/Strength.

Also, I've moved into second place in my office's Biggest Loser contest. A few more weeks to go and I'm in it to win it.

Finally used all my winter gear to bike to work this morning. It was pretty dang chilly but I feel great. 20-25 minutes each way is a pretty solid workout that also (a) can be done in my commute time and (b) can save me money on transit fares. If I can get my sleeping under control, I'll keep this up through the winter.

So far I've been running more frequently eating healthier and eating smaller portions and soon I think I might try doing P90x!

My goal is to stick with my weight loss plan and hope that the pounds stay away.

Sticking with the Weight Watchers and working out 5-6x a week. Last night was my night off from the gym and I had Chinese food (hunan chicken & 2 cups of white rice.) Of course, though I tracked my food, I woke up 1.5 lbs heavier this morning, which always happens after salty Chinese food. Now I know why they tell you to only weight yourself once a week. I have to admit I'm a little crankier on the diet, which always happens. I try not to take it out on anyone! So, I'm still on the goal of losing 1 lb a week - despite my Chinese dinner - and as I have "only" 10-15 to lose (seems like a lot to me), I really can't expect to lose it much more quickly.

I'm still sticking with the nutrition and I have been doing the cardio as well. I did aquacise today and enjoyed myself. I meet with my trainer on tuesday and I have been going to the gym everyday. Loving it. It's also nice that I have a workout buddy.

My running goal for the week is 26 miles. I've been doing about 24 for the last few weeks.

My nutrition goal is to have a protein shake for breakfast with fruit and a pbj English muffin. Then Greek yogurt for lunch with fruit. Then at least 30 oz. of water per day. Got to get my water intake up!

Last either body weight exercises/shadow boxing 1/day for 15 mins at least 5 days out of the week on top of my other workouts.

I love the idea of the fitness challenge! I'm all in!

My lifestyle change

Hello iMore,

This has been a great year for myself. I have been totally revamping every aspect of my life to change for the better. I started to change my eating style and concept and started losing weight last November and it has been unreal. I have been following p90x (finishing month 2) on a perfect basis without any issues. Along with p90x I implement my own different sets of exercises to add on to what I feel is lacking. This has been such a focus that my wife and co-workers are starting to dislike me because I make them feel bad about their habits.... I really believe if you want to change... You have to look at it as a lifestyle change and nothing less. Being consistent is key to succeeding and to being a better you.

Here is my diet everyday that I follow so you can get a basic idea.

7:00am- Breakfast
My protein drink
One dollop of peanut butter (the organic good stuff)
2 bananas
1 scoop of chocolate protein (25 grams)
And 2 regular spoon sized servings of instant coffee....

Along with 1/2 cup of oatmeal drizzled with a little local honey.

10:00am- Snack
One scoop of protein
21 almonds
1 granny smith apple

12:00pm-Lunch
6-8 ounces of chicken or beef fajita meat
With 2 scrambled eggs mixed with egg whites to lessen cholesterol.

3:00pm-snack
One scoop of protein
21 almonds
1 granny smith apple

5:00-per workout snack
One scoop of protein
21 almonds

6-8 generally workout time with protein drink afterwards
I use two different types of protein
I use combat powder only after weight training. This is a complete mix of different protein and breaks down much slower than regular whey. On cardio days I use regular whey.


8:00pm-Dinner
6-8 ounces of chicken or beef fajita meat
With 2 scrambled eggs mixed with egg whites to lessen cholesterol.
One apple


So with this being done everyday I went from 223.3 to 174.8 in 4-5 months. People say they feel bad for me when they bite down on a burger... I love the way I eat and would not eat any other way... Abs are made in the kitchen...

So iMore... I really really REALLY need this new iPad.... I feel that my diet, attitude, and effort reflects with the goals of the fitness month. I would be extremely grateful if I was chosen.

I wish everyone good luck and please keep this a lifestyle change and not view it as a diet.


Sincerely,

Schrutefarms
