3 Pounds Gone In 6 Days, How Did I Do It?

The weight loss effort for November is going great!

I have been consistent in me effort to NOT eat any - and I mean any - snacks in between meals. Today I weighed in at 163.2 lbs. I weighed 166.6 lbs on the first day of the month - less than a week ago.

Of course, I finished off October with a bang - raided the kid’s Halloween candy in a big way. I would expect that the weight loss would occur relatively easy for the beginning of the month. As long as I am consistent on the not eating part between meals I think my 155 lbs. goal by the end of the year could very well be a reality.

The other item I committed to is exercising at least 5 times a week. Did my weekend warrior stuff, ran on Saturday, rode the single speed on Sunday. Today I went over to the YMCA with the fang dang family and took a few good tugs on the rowing machine.

The ergometer workout was a bit different than normal. Instead of the long consistent row, I did a few sets of intervals.

First 2000 meter piece in 500 meter increments; easy, hard, easy, hard - looks like this;

7:52.2, 1:58.0 minutes per 500 meters, 24 strokes per minute

2:06.8 24 500m
1:53.5 24 1000m
2:04.9 23 1500m
1:47.0 27 2000m

And the second 2000 meter piece; 1000m easy, 1000m hard

8:08.9 2:02.2 24

2:14.2 24 500m
2:10.4 23 1000m
1:54.6 25 1500m
1:49.7 26 2000m

I’m psyched the way the weight loss is going so far.
