Wii fit day 26

Internal dialogue coming back from post office late today:

“Man, I am wiped. And hungry. I want something bad for me. I’ve been so good. I should just get some orange chicken from Panda Express. It won’t kill me. I’m tired, I’m allowed. No, we’ve got food at home, and payday is on Friday, and we’re working so hard on bills and fitness… okay. I don’t need that chicken. For that matter, I didn’t need that mocha today, but oh well. But I’m tired, I’m just going to go home and weigh in, and if I’m up, I’m up. Whatever.”


Woot! Five pounds down since starting!

Only 40 to go. Okay, let’s not think about that. Five pounds down! Yay! I’m sure a plateau is approaching, as it’s very difficult to find time to go out and run in the summer watching Em, but I’ve got her going to a kid’s “Little Gym” type place on Friday morning, so that’ll help.

Running with the wii fit is tough on my calves. However, it’s also fun, now that we’ve discovered some Easter eggs in the routes. When a dog passes you at the beginning, quickly overtake your guide and start following the dog to unlock new routes – that sort of thing.

For those wondering what the peak in the middle was, this may be TMI, but here you go. Hey, I ain’t perfect.

    That Panda Express Orange Chicken is killer!

    On the topic of healthy eating and orange chicken, I find the Weight Watchers Smart Ones Fruit Inspirations Orange Chicken (that’s a lot of capitalized words) to be quite good.

    talking to ourselves

    I have lots of internal conversations like this, but I’m not usually as virtuous as you were. I have to really work on “I deserve a treat” mentality.

    I’ve also been walking inside my condo instead of being outside in heat and soup of humidity. I tried walking outside one Sunday morning and just felt like I was moving through water. I feel goofy walking up and down my hallway, but I figure some exercise is better than none.

    Yeah, it was pretty brutal outside today. The ozone doesn’t help.

    Maybe if you put on some music you’d feel like you were dancing instead of pacing. 🙂

    Oh, and I’m not perfect. I delayed it, but I did wind up getting that orange chicken yesterday. Heh.
