November Results!

I lost a total of 13 pounds in November!

How fabulous is that? I feel really good about myself at the moment. I did well last month. I wasn’t perfect, but that’s fine – I know where I can make improvements, and I also know that I’ll never be perfect. And that’s just a-ok with me

I made an effort to plan quite a bit. I knew in the mornings what I would be having for supper, and I usually packed my lunch. I tried to ensure that I was never out of lunch items or veggies for supper. Most week days I did 45 minutes of biking in the morning, and 60 minutes of something else (usually Wii) in the evenings. On weekends, I slacked a lot. What’s up with that? I get up early on weekdays, but I can’t be bothered to exercise on the days when I have nothing else to do. I’m weird.

Anyway, I clocked in 1915 minutes of exercise last month, and it would have been more had I not been sick last weekend. I’m trying to mix things up a little. The biking isn’t a big deal really – I usually just watch tv while I do that, so I don’t really get too sick of it. In the evenings I sometimes do Wii Fit Plus stuff(I like to do the expert bike course which usually takes up a good chunk of time), or Wii Fit Yoga, or Wii Active. Last week I did the four mile WATP dvd. I hadn’t done one of those in months, and I figured that it couldn’t be as dull as I remembered. I was wrong, of course. Five minutes into it, and I was dying of boredom. Still, I finished it, and probably won’t do it again for another six months or so!

I did eat out quite a lot, but I made good choices. Salads. Lighter sandwiches.

I did not journal my points, but that’s something I will work on this month. I did it on Monday, but not yesterday. Perhaps I will go and do that shortly…

Oh man – last week, I was attacked by a Lean Cuisine lasagne! Seriously! I’d just heated the damn thing up for lunch, and I was holding it in front of me while trying to cut into it with a plastic fork. Which snapped. So the lasagne flew towards me, and my fork hand ploughed into the piping hot pasta. I ran to the bathroom to wash it off, but it had already burned me bad enough to blister a little. My poor hand has since recovered, but my white shirt hasn’t

Beware the Lean Cuisine lasagne! It is the devil.

So…how much weight can I lose in December? It’s gonna be a tough one, but stay tuned…
