Friday Fitness Blogging


  • Weight = X-2
  • Change From Last Week = +1
  • Met Exercise Goal? Yes
    Goal was twenty minutes a day (walk/bike/swim) at least four days.
  • Current Exercise Goal = twenty minutes a day (walk/bike/swim) at least four days.
  • Kept food diary? No.

It's the food diary. I'm sure of it. I would lose weight if I just did the food diary. I mean, I've been walking seriously for a couple of weeks now, and that pretty much means I'm getting the exercise I need. So why aren't I losing weight? I must not be watching what I eat well enough. That needs to change.

It is now 35 weeks until the walk starts. Doing some quick math... I need to get about $120 in donations a week in order to reach my goal for The Walk. I think I need to work on some sort of fund-raising scheme. After all, this is for Breast Cancer research, and not just for me. I've got a few ideas, but I need to make some of them concrete here, soon.

An update on the donation inspiration. I got another donation from Maggie, who does not have a website to the best of my knowledge. Other honor roll pledges are from Elayne and Erin. My little sister Lisa has pledged 3% of the sales from her Usborne Book Store to the cause, so if you need to snag a good book for a Christmas present, go visit.

And lastly, for the record, here are my Training Walk Reports from Gjoblaag (the boring blog). I'm trying to include a picture I take somewhere along my walk in each Training Walk Report. I also decided to list these "blog style", with the most recent first. I'm working on a 3-Day Page with summaries of where I'm at and what I'm doing, but I suspect I won't update it often. Reading Gjoblaag is the best idea if you want to stay current with my training.
