Poignant Irrelevance

Monday, January 10, 2005

thanks to everyone who submitted suggestions, i'm writting them down. i was a water drinking machine today and sometimes that is so distracting. going to the use the facilities all that time. sheesh. i thought for a while there i should bring my laptop into the restroom and just park myself there for an hour or so, good grief.

i am still sore from yesterday's lift, all over. gotta love that. i finally found a free weights exercise that substitutes for the lat pull downs (because i lift weights in my apartment). my back is sore right in the same place. sometimes its hard to get the form down on those exercises where you have a lot of lattitude to use other muscles to cheat. but being sore in that area tells me i've finally figured it out. not that you care but you kind of stoop over and pull the dumbbells up toward your chest. its called a bent-over row. this guy is using a barbell instead of dumbbells but what does he know, he's just a drawing. you can do it this way too but i like the dumbbell version.




i'm not as hungry today. just so you know, i'm on the 1,500 calorie plan. except i just ballparked my calories for the day and it came out to 955 1265. hmmm. maybe i forgot to add something. what i'd really like to do is add a protein shake with my breakfast.

i didn't realize it until i got home--i had a total of 425 calories at work today. woah. small skim latte, sf jello, a chicken sandwich, and an orange. wow normally i would be antsy and looking for candy.

but the thought never crossed my mind. i wasn't even thinking about food today.

  • Wow, I'm so used to dealing with Weight Watchers and the points system and kilojules for Australia that I dont know how much 1500 calories is. Is that enough food for you? I'm assuming you've calculated what it takes to lose weight for your height/weight. Thanks for the comment on my post!
