12 Aug 08 The Daily Plate

No Gravatar

I could probably be losing weight quicker. I’m still making an effort though. I’m watching how much I eat. I was good last evening. We went to the local Fatz. I had unsweetened tea, and not beer. I did indulge in a half portion of fried green tomatoes as an appetizer, but then I had a fish sandwich, and left some of the bread, and I only ate one of those little cinnamon rolls they bring around before you start on the meal itself.

Anyway, I’ve now gone from being Officially Obese to simply Overweight, according to the BMI chart. I’m now at 29.83, which is just under 30. So it’s another little personal milestone, and shows me I’m making at least some headway.

I’m still working on the One Hundred Push Ups Routine as well, and I’m trying to take a break from my computer desk more times in a day, and at least walk around the room a bit more!

06 Aug 08 One Hundred Push Ups

No Gravatar

I’ve just done week three, day two, of this program.

That entailed five sets of push ups; 22, 17, 17, 15, and then 20. Each set had a 90 second rest between them. It’s tought going, but I made it.

For those of you out there that think it’s easy peasy, try it yourself! Also bear in mind, I don’t go to a gym, and don’t consider myself particularly fit, so this program is good for a bit of exercise, as well as anything else.

Day three is on Friday.

01 Aug 08 One Hundred Push Ups

No Gravatar

I’ve made it through to the end of week 2. At the end of six weeks I should be able to do one hundred push ups right off.

I know I’m doing better than I was when I started this, but I know too, that I’m still some way off from that hundred.

Still it’s exercise. It gets the upper arms strengthened, and it’s a bit of workout for the heart too. I know that because I can feel it pumping when I’ve done a session of these.

Next session is Monday. What a way to start the week!
