Updated OP with pictures and measurements. Today I weighed in at 124.1 (weird) so I've revised the starting weight for consistency. Forgot to mention in my plan that I won't be able to do weight training for a week or two since I was dumb and sprained my wrist while trying to ride my new bike. I can do normal stuff like type and carry groceries if my wrist is flat but I can't really put any shearing force on it. So I'll be swimming and walking! Yesterday's exercise: Swimming: 1:00:00 || 1200 yd || 0 bpm (+411 pts) 200 freestyle (in yards) 200 backstroke 100 dolphin kick 100 flutter kick 200 dolphin kick 160 backstroke 120 breaststroke 80 freestyle 40 dolphin kick First time at a new swimming class, can't believe I was able to swim so much P awesome.Food: B: coffee. L: salad, chicken drumstick, dried fruit. S: 1c plain yogurt + 1 tbsp sour cherry jam. D: edamame, agedashi tofu, 1 fried tuna roll, sashimi, 1/2 c rice, 3 s glasses of beer

Exercise: Tracked a workout for 340 pts Light Walking (secondary e.g. commute, on the job, etc): 0:20:00 (+5 pts) 0:20:00 (+5 pts) Swimming: 0:40:00 (+330 pts) I didn't plan to go swimming today so when I went I kind of messed around with stroke and kick work--and of course swam a lot less than my swim class. Will look up some swim workouts so it's structured. Ate wayyy too much today I should eat salad everyday like KBD B: coffee, m latte with sugarfree syrup, edamame. L: 1 chicken thigh, snap peas + shrimp, 3 sweet potato fries, V8, 2 chocolate cherries. S: lime popsicle, Chinese herb jello. D: chicken thigh, roast baby potatoes, zucchini, pavlova, bit of port Weight tracking on the withings scale is p awesome though my progress on my own is sad

Was at Houston this weekend for a wedding, was able to fit a short workout in. Food was mostly horrible because of airplane food, having to eat with family/friends, and also since we lived in Houston for 3 years we also wanted to hit up some favorite past places. Have to plan ahead how I can eat better and still be polite. It's hard when they press you to eat ice cream for the 10th time... Friday: B: none. L: Vietnamese vermacelli + grilled pork, freeze dried apple, 1/2 c rice. S: diet sprite, diet coke, some choc covered pretzels. D: Brie and pear baguette, ice cream, sip of beer. Saturday: B: none L: 3 taquitos, tripe tendon soup. S: tofu soup, scallion pancakes. D: wedding food, glass of wine. Sunday: L: dimsum. S: diet soda. D: crawfish, shrimp, 1/2 rib dinner, spicy rice, yams, margarita, s latte, 1/2 tea cake. Exercise: 30 min run/walk 10 min swim Today: B: 1/2 lox + goat cheese sandwich. L: pretzels, fruit snacks, ritz. S: cookie + milk. D: Japanese sukiyaki beef, chicken drumstick, yellow rice, veggies, cherries, 1/4 orange. I felt thin at the start of the weekend and of course after all this gorging right now I feel very fat. Tomorrow is back to work so also back to salads for lunch and reasonable portions and gym workouts, can't wait! I found swimplan.com and also have been watching some swimming videos so will swim a routine tomorrow. Wrist is still weird. At the temp gym I was able to do mess around with a 20lb barbell to do DLs, squats, press etc but my wrist hurts when I hold a book out to my husband or try to pull over my seat belt. Might try out some weights this week and see how it goes.

It's from BlackMilk! This was from a limited run a year or two ago. They just announced a partnership thing with Lucas Arts so expect more Star Wars awesomeness. Speaking of shopping, we went to the UnderArmour outlet and bought some shirts and compression shorts, I am addicted to compression shorts now.

Woke up at 125.3, boo well it's not unexpected just means I have to work harder the next 4 weeks to make the 121.3 milestone. Ideas for this week - eat more vegetables - eat more protein - find my Nike+ tracker since I lost my FitBit - schedule exercise times - be mind of my goal jomiel fucked around with this message at May 29, 2012 around 17:27 |

I do love veggies, I think it's more of planning my meals thing because some days I do really well clean eating and some days it's like I MUST EAT ALL THE CARBS & lovely FOOD I CAN CRAM IN MY MOUTH. I have tons of bars which is kind of like adult junk food but better than unplanned snacks so I will make sure to carry one in my backpack/purse at all times. Wonder if people sell salty protein bars too. Oh hey a wetsuit is only $200-300, so cheap adding to this week's action list: - read tri thread - do not fail these awesome people who are following me

Not very hungry today B: coffee. L: salad, 2 eggs. D: chicken drumstick, yellow rice, pear. Exercise: 1.87mi walk in the neighborhood + some stairs for 40 min  Downloaded Nike+ app, will start running workouts next week. This week plan to swim and walk and take more ibuprofen for the wrist. jomiel fucked around with this message at May 30, 2012 around 07:19 |

Weight: 123.8 I know it's just from not eating yesterday but it's so hard not to be a little happy B: coffee. L: salad, 5 chicken meatballs, tea, handful of chips. S: 1/4 honeydew melon. D: 1c yogurt + handful honey granola + 1/3 frozen banana, brandied cherries Oh god frozen bananas are the best ever~~~ Just peel, cut them up, and put in a bag. I am so going to eat this everyday for dessert now. Lunch pix~  Salad is from cafeteria and is almost always spinach, Romaine, mixed baby greens, garbanzo, peas, corn, edamame, carrots, beets, sunflower seeds, cheddar, wonton strips, croutons, balsamic dressing, extra balsamic vinegar. Tracked a workout for 373 pts Swimming: 0:55:00 || 960 yd (+373 pts) 100 catch up freestyle 100 freestyle 200 one arm butterfly 200 one arm backstroke 200 breastroke with dolphin kick 160 freestyle breathe every 3 strokes Some things I am trying hard to do recently, cribbed from various logs and the motivation thread: 1. Not think "I feel fat I look fat oh yeah I AM fat", and instead think "I feel fat but it's okay, I'll look SO GOOD soon". 2. Not be disappointed by my lack of fitness and give up workouts too early. The things I struggle with now are going to be SO DAMNED EASY in a month and working out everyday is going be a habit and it's just downhill from there. 3. Don't line up at the salad bar thinking "Oh man those burgers/nacho fries/curry looks so good Oh man why am I eating rabbit food Ugh I have to be good and stay on my diet". Instead, I make myself to think about how much I just LOVE BEETS and the crunchy croutons. Or when I am walking home hungry after swimming and I pass by a dozen restaurants instead of thinking about the delicious food in each one, I try to visualize about how good my chicken drumsticks or yogurt with frozen bananas are going to taste. In good news my wrist is healing up or else it's the increased self-dosed ibuprofen 600mg twice a day

Might want to take some of those frozen bananas with you to the gym so after your workout you have a quick pick me up snack, I always snack on an apple after a workout just to quell any thought of doing something dumb.

Hmm I have no place to store my frozen banana except in the work specimen fridge but I will keep more fruit on hand, that is a good idea. I had a impromptu restaurant outing with my roommate because CA is banning foie gras soon so we are now on a quest to eat all of it first. And the restaurant turned out to be a real undiscovered gem so we ended up eating 4 courses. L: tandoori ckn thigh, 5 chicken meatballs, edamame, 1 nut cookie. D: carrot-mango soup amuse bouche with a light sprinkling of cilantro beef carpaccio with chilled asparagus, fried capers, and romano cheese bread + Katamala olive butter, butter with sea salt, and basil butter. foie gras and carb ravioli in mushroom sauce NY strip steak with hashed potatoes and spinach 1/3 bottle of wine coffee semifreddo + coffee   so yeah back up to 125.7 this morning but I HAVE NO REGRETS  I do regret not working out more though. I was totally like oh yeah I'll do bodywt exercises and then go for a long walk after 1 hour of diablo, and of course when I next regain consciousness it's like half an hour past bedtime.

I walk everyday to and from work 2 miles at a decent pace (~15-20min) but I do want to walk more since it's nice but I am lazy as gently caress so I only walked once this weekend. Actually the weekend was pretty unawesome. Well, it was Fatlord Friday everyday which is awesome (for Trephine's bday party I made homemade pasta with butter-poached lobster and pavlova with homemade brandied cherries) but yeah terrible for my goals. Not staying on track is probably a combination of me not wanting my goals enough, HTFU, and going about it the wrong way One idea is to track my food on Cron-o-Meter this week and see how much I'm eating. Trephine suggested that maybe on my "good days" I'm restricting my intake too much and so my "bad days" are inevitably terrible. My food today:  1200 is on the low side, plus I ate too little protein. My usual cafetaria salad + 2 eggs is pretty good macros and is 510kcal.  So combined with yogurt and fruit and some more protein that should be a good jumping point for food during the week. Will try harder to increase protein intake. Protein also makes me stuffed so that is good. Tomorrow I will boil some eggs and fry up frozen shrimp and save those all in baggies so I can bring them with me. Tomorrow is also running day, first day of 5k training, plan to do 2 days/week from the Haldon training schedule. Can't believe I'm actually excited to go run, I think it's because I downloaded the Zombie Run app~ Will also try doing weights tomorrow with some tape to see how my wrist goes. Wrist still aches if I'm not on my ibuprofen regimen--got it aching again this weekend carrying a case of bottled water, which isn't even that heavy, so frustrating. jomiel fucked around with this message at Jun 7, 2012 around 06:03 |

Food: B: coffee with cream + sugar L: 1 c beef fried rice, 4oz beef, roasted veggies. S: V8. D: sushi, which was baked bass with mango in cream sauce, cold tofu with bonito flakes and soy sauce, sashimi combo, and I stole a piece of my friend's roll.  P good on protein today whoohoo! I am usually good about putting things into my calendar but I had totally forgotten about a coworker dinner today, so had to really make myself go to the gym after that. First 10 minutes I wanted to barf but then after making myself keep going MAGICALLY I felt better. It's crazy how predictable that happens (but making myself workout + the first 10 minutes is STILL SO HARD). So for exercise: - pullup -28x1 and then failsss - DB press 15x10x2, had tape on for 1 set and no tape for 2nd set, I can probably restart weight training I think~ - Running (treadmill): 0:17:30 || 1.5 mi (+107 pts) -abs stuff (crunches, leg raises, weighted sit ups 10x2) I was so mad I forgot about the Zombie Run game Got my UA undershorts in the mail so running will be awesome later

Yeah Artoo was the only BM item that Trephine told me I needed to buy. He's usually meh about the other stuff. Oops I was starving today and ate too much carbs B: bar, coffee. L: 2c beef fried rice, 4oz beef, peach. S: sugar free rockstar, banana. D: yogurt + fruit bottom. 1/2 c rice + persian food. 2 happy cow. cherry juice.  btw sugar-free Rockstar is the grossest thing, do not recommend. It has a strange plastic-y aftertaste. I forgot to bring the apple with me to the gym and all during the walk home I was thinking about the contents of my kitchen and what item can I grab from the fridge to shove in my mouth. Probably should have not drank the cherry juice but it was so deliciousssss Weighed in at 123.7 this morning but it doesn't mean anything, my withings graph still looks the same  mebbe SLIGHTLY down but we'll see next week... Have 2 more weeks to get to 121.3 for mid-June check-in. Tracked a workout for 421 pts Swimming: 1:00:00 || 1160 yd (+411 pts) 160 flutter kick 160 dolphin kick 400 freestyle 240 freestyle alternate lengths with breaststroke, backstroke, freestyle, and breaststroke with dolphin kick (can't do butterfly yet) 200 freestyle Light Walking: 0:20:00 (+5 pts) 0:20:00 (+5 pts) jomiel fucked around with this message at Jun 7, 2012 around 06:24 |

D: 1/3 protein pancakes, 1 oz cheese, 1" turkey wrap, 1/2 roast beef sandwich with 1/4 of the bread, 2 glasses wine  Bought a thing (most terrible picture ever)  It was really hard putting it on, I was like oh hey this is cool, hmm this is really tight, oh god I'm getting so sweaty and it's not going to go over my butt /panic in despair Looked good while it was on, I felt like female Shepard Also picked up some goggle defogging drops and BodyGlide, this is going to be great. I'm already getting chafing on my arms from rubbing against my suit straps so going to try BodyGlide tomorrow.

Oh yeah protein pancakes are fromm http://www.epicureanbb.com/post/172...rotein-pancakes with the following modifications: - 7 packets Splenda because putting in full 3tbsp is too sweet - add salt! - microplane the zest prior to juicing and you get more lemon flavor - sometimes I add a bit of vanilla extract or lemon extract - sometimes I add a few frozen blueberries or dark chocolate chips right after the pancake batter is poured into the pan - you can also make crepe-like pancakes if you pour thin - don't flip too early, undercooked pancakes has more texture of egg white omelet than pancake. - add butter on yo stack! - sometimes maple syrup, with sprinkle of kosher/sea salt My dream is to make these into crepes and fill them with cottage cheese-mascapone/sour cream mix to make protein blintzes  drizzled with honey-blueberry compote and maybe some grey sea salt on topMaybe one day when I'm not starving and must shove them in my mouth immediately
