Weight Watching & Working Out

February 20th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

Man, I need to get back on the horse as far as creative post titles.

So this week, Laura decided to start Weight Watchers. This means I’m participating in Weight Watchers by proxy, since any meal she’ll cook at home will be WW-friendly, and any leftovers associated with be WW-friendly, and most meals on weekends will be the same.

We’ve both also started working out recently. She started about a couple weeks before I did, but I’ve gotten into the swing of things really well this week after having started last week.

I’m “participating” in WW with her, but not fully. That is to say, I’m not explicitly counting points and making sure I come in at or under my WW number every day. I don’t even 100% know what my number is, but we have an idea. So I’m just trying to keep a rough gauge of where I’m at each day and to keep numbers down. The biggest thing I’m doing outside of eating her WW cooking is to just try to be smarter about what I eat for lunch.

In any case, I think I’m progressing well. I’ve been feeling more awake this week and like I’ve got more energy throughout the day (although at this very moment, not so much, because last night was indoor soccer and I’m always annihilated for awhile after a game).

In the long run, I’m just hoping to lose some fat weight and get more in shape than I am now. I really don’t care what my actual weight ends up being, just as long as the fat on my torso goes away and I can do more physical things without getting so tired. Oh, and there are benefits in the bedroom too. :)

So far, so good.
