Yesterday was yet another great day. I ate right, slept right, and exercised right. The result was being rewarded again on the scale this morning. I'm especially happy because weekend days are so unpredictable, so it is hard to stick with a plan for the day. The biggest thing I did right yesterday was to not eat too much or to eat after 5 p.m.

It was really hot yesterday so I didn't spend much time outside, but the time I was outside was fairly taxing just because of the heat. I was really happy to that my recumbent bike is indoors given how hot it was outside.

I love training in zone 2, but it is a struggle to stay in that fat burning zone, since the heart rate is supposed be stay below 70% of the maximum heart rate. Sometimes it feels like I'm barely working, so it is hard to believe that I'm accomplishing anything, but the results are there and I am losing weight.

Today is going to be another hot day outside. I'm not sure what we will do as a family, but I hope to follow my plan again today. I've lost a lot of weight this week so I don't expect to lose weight again. We'll see what happens and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

Wilderness Adventures. 260.7 pounds. -0.8 pounds today, - 0.8 pounds this week, - 5.3 pounds this month, - 19.3 pounds since May 1, - 72.3 pounds from my all-time high of 333 pounds.

I spent the previous 4 days canoeing and portaging in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness with family and friends. I burned a ton of calories and I expected to lose weight. That might have happened, had I not also eaten like a king. The 2 people in our party of 5 that planned and cooked the food made food that was both delicious as abundant. I don't know how many calories I burned, but it was a lot. I ate an equal amount of calories and perhaps lost 1 pound over the entire 4 days we were in the wilderness. This trip was magical and I don't regret eating like I did, but now that I am home it is time to lose weight. Today is going to be a day of transition of getting back to my normal life. It is going to be difficult as I don't have a plan. I don't know what today holds, which is scary. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

I Need To Get Out Of The 260s! 261.5 pounds. + 0.4 pounds today, - 1.2 pounds this week, - 4.5 pounds this month, - 18.5 pounds since May 1, - 71.5 pounds from my all-time high of 333 pounds.

Well, at least I didn't gain a whole pound. Last night I took my daughter out on a little date and we went on a drive to Stillwater, then we drove to our favorite restaurant in St. Croix Falls called Poco Loco. The food there is delicious. I was outside of my eating window as I ate after 5 p.m. I also didn't exercise as I'm trying to have the soreness in the IT band in my left leg go away. Finally, I didn't have a good night of sleep. All of this combined to make me gain weight, but not as much as I thought I would all things considered. Today should be a better day. I have a full day of work and if I can keep from eating after 5 p.m. perhaps I'll lose weight. I won't be exercising and I hope to get a good night of sleep. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!
