Rick - Day 16

Hello all!!

Day 16 is over and done.  Things are still going well.  I really have to show Melanie how to post on here!!   Anyway, I’ve added exercise into the regime.  One thing that I know, for me, if exercise has become a chore, it won’t get done.  This is one reason why I really don’t care for the gym.  It cuts into my family time and I hate sharing my time with people while I wait for them to finish their exercises on the equipment that I want to use.  I’m convinced that I can get into shape fairly decently doing various exercises at home and I can do them with my family, so it’s a win-win situation for all!

Food

  • Toast with margarine – 4
  • 1/2 Banana – 1
  • Coffee (Double Double) – 4
  • 2 slices of Roast Beef – 6
  • Salad with spritzer dressing – 0
  • Pear – 1
  • 1 Vietnamese Spring Roll – 2
  • 2 Salad Rolls – 4
  • Rice Vermicilli (no meat because Carter ate it all….lol!) – 6

Exercise

  • 45 Minutes of Dance Dance Revolution on the Wii – +4 points

I highly recommend this game because you really get a good cardio work out.  I’m not sold on the Wii Fit because I don’t feel that I get near the workout I do with DDR.  Another great Wii game that gets the heart pumping is Outdoor Extreme Challenge.  There’s lots of running in place and jumping.  One of the best parts of these games is that I can play them with my family!

Supplements

  • Nutrilite Daily Multi-vitamin (more stuff and cheaper than Centrum).  I ran out of the Mens-Daily pack and had a bottle of the multi which is part of the pack anyway.
  • Nutrilite Anti-oxidant squeeze tube
  • Hydroxycut Green Tea

Mentally, I’m pretty focused.  I’m staying busy and not focusing so much as I used to on being hungry or feeling like I need to be eating.  I find that I’m staying fuller longer after my meal.  Plus, eating more fruit and veggies are pretty good at filling me up more.  There are times where I can’t handle them and have to have a granola bar or something different but I am surviving.

Keep fighting the fight and let me know if we can help.
