You are doing great Anne! Your bread looks really tasty too!
It sounds like you are definitely ready for a little break. I like how you went through and answered the questions from the book.

Thanks. I had the cracked wheat oatmeal bread at breakfast, and it turned out quite nicely. I even decided to have a pizza at lunch, although I've already put the shells in the freezer. I think the reason I decided to go through and answer the questions is that I'm notoriously bad at picking up on warning signs. The last weight loss attempt ended with me in the hospital for 3 weeks, a chest tube for about 3 weeks past that, and a complete end to the dieting. Partly because it was months until I felt even remotely normal again. Also, I had residual pain from the chest tube that would freak me out (thinking about reoccurence). For pretty much a year afterwards a night of less sleep, or the heat of summer, would give me some pain. This would stop me from doing any real exercise.
As someone who has never done a lot of regular exercise (different from having a job where I was on my feet a lot) I have a hard time sometimes telling the difference between laziness and just needing a little more rest. Hopefully I'll get better at it as I go along.
You look like you are doing a fantastic job of making sure that you get workout breaks when you need them and making sure you get adequate eats. I know you'll conquer the rest demon.

These were easier and harder than I expected. Since I didn't think I'd accomplish much with my starting weights I picked ones somewhere between my starting and ending weights.
I realized after I started the step-ups that I should have alternated them. After doing 20 with my right leg I switched over and thought I'd do 20 with my left. No, not going to happen. I'm not quite sure I should count 29 for the Jackknife as I fell off the ball after 22 reps, but managed to eek out another 7 before I called it quits. I also made a point to do the push-ups on my knees. I'm still at the point where 8 in a row are about my max, so there wasn't any point in picking them. However, I did start at the 60-degree push-ups, so I think the 22 wasn't too bad.
In theory I was aiming for 30 minimum for each, so I didn't quite hit what I wanted. The catch was if I'd done say 30 push-ups I'm not that sure I could have kept going. I made up the morning session to 45 mins with a 15-min treadmill warm-up and whatever it took to go up to 45 mins afterwards (I think about 12 mins). I recovered enough to do another 30 mins on the treadmill before lunch.
After lunch I did some yardwork (planting raspberry canes, digging over the empty bed that we're going to wait to plant until someone comes and braces the fence). Then I finished the afternoon with 30-mins of laps in the pool. I think that's what I'm going to do during my rest week - gardening and working on my laps. I stopped doing them as often as I felt it was affecting my shoulders and possibly recovery between lifting sessions. I'm hoping that a week of laps will help me build a little stamina there.

I really had a hard to motivate myself kind of day. I did the exercising I had planned, but boy was it hard. I'm so looking forward to my rest week (which starts Thurs... although I've decided to keep 30min a day in). I even let my cravings change my afternoon snack. Not off plan, but I was to have an ounce of soy nuts and a protein shake. I was really into the salty soy nuts so I had two servings instead (and skipped the protein shake). It's still better than the days I would just have finished the container, but still....
After a mediocre day (I got rained on twice) the sun finally decided to shine at the end of the day. Tomorrow will be my AMRAPs for the B session and then on to Stage 2 (I'm a little afraid, I haven't even looked at it).

Woohoo, Anne! I know what you mean about Stage 2. I'm going to do a dry run with light weights this week so when I go to the gym and really start next week I'll sort of know what to do without having to refer to my book every other minute. Yes, I do indeed carry my book with me in a bag along with my log and a couple bottles of water!! I'm such a dork.
Hey Anne it still looks amazing in here!!! So what that you had two servings of soy nuts. Like you said, there was a time you would've eaten the whole thing. Also by skipping your shake it looks like you stayed on track overall. Great job. As much as you are working in the garden outside of your workouts, you should be dropping poundage pretty quickly.

We can do Stage 2; I know we can!!
I'm going to read up on Stage 2 today, although from some of the posts I kind of know what's coming. I'll probably try a few practice sessions next week (with little or no weight, just to get the movements in my head) for some of the exercises. Next Friday will be the first shot at it with more appropriate weights. Good luck!

It's not so much that I changed what I was going to eat, but more that I did it without much consideration. I've changed meals around before but not usually because I ate something I wasn't going to. It's not that big a deal, but it's back to a habit I thought I'd beaten out of my system.
On the weight front, I'm actually up about 3 pounds from Sunday's weight. I'm not overly concerned about it, but it's not how it usually goes. Monday is usually the same and/or down, Tuesday is up, and Wed is down. I usually bump around like that during the week (usually with the highs and lows getting smaller) and take the official number on Sunday. Since I'm up 2 pounds from yesterday I'm pretty much certain it's water. I realized that I didn't drink as much as I usually do yesterday. Way TMI, but much darker urine than normal today. I can fix the hydration issue fairly easily though.
I did a little treadmill this morning and did my AMRAPs for the B set. I actually thought they would have gone a little better/easier than they did. This afternoon I'm going to go do a little labour in the back and then maybe do some laps to finish my last high exercise day for a week. The heavy work is done in for the moment. Just things left like cleaning up, washing the patio, filling pots getting them ready to plant. Fairly light stuff really. Tomorrow I'll go back to eating 2150 cals (yikes), which isn't that bad really. I just have to watch that I keep the protein numbers high enough.
I'll add the HRM stuff later with my food for the day, but I figured I might as well add the AMRAP info now. I did 30 mins on the treadmill before breakfast. Then I started with another 15 mins, followed by:
Like the A set, I was mentally aiming for 30 reps of each. The deadlifts started off well, but there was just no way I was getting to 30 reps on the shoulder press. Somehow I thought these ones would have gone better, as I finished with 32lbs each, although barely and with likely very poor form. The pullovers didn't really surprise me, as these have always been the ones I felt were my weakest. I did the 20 lunges reasonably well (did 20 with one leg, then switched and barely finished the other 20), and got bored with the Swiss-ball Crunch at 40. I find it relatively easy (which probably means I'm doing it wrong ).
Oops, forgot to add that I made it up to a 45-min session by getting back on the treadmill for a little bit. I think it worked out to another 8 or 9 mins. Just couldn't push it out to an hour (which was what I was thinking of, and what I usually do).
It was an odd day weather-wise here today. The weather was nice and sunny and decent, unless the wind was blowing, in which case it was pretty damn cold. I spent the morning running a couple of errands. The afternoon I decided even with the wind that I would do some laps in the pool. Other than that it was a pretty quiet day. I keep hoping that the weather would just warm up a bit.

I found today that I've had a huge change in energy levels (on the positive side). I made a point though to keep the exercise to just 30 minutes on the treadmill though. Since that's the whole point of a rest week - to rest! It was also too cold to work outside, so perhaps I'm just a little antsy. I did suck it up in the afternoon for a quick swim, but the wind made it really cold getting out of the pool. Tomorrow if it's still cold I'll just dress warmly and still do a little outside. I want to start getting the pots ready to plant, so when it does warm up I'll ready to go.

Nice work on figuring out the rest thing. I still haven't really learned that one and usually wait until I bonk before I get the fact that I need to rest.
Glad to hear your rest is being restful! I've had a great week, but I've been staying up way too late at night.
That's the one thing I'm really working hard on changing. I'm a night owl by nature and usually it means I sleep in. It was just kind of messing up my day so now it's a 10-11pm bedtime and an 8am alarm. Saturday I give myself until 9am, and Sunday I don't set the alarm. I actually think I'm getting better at this routine, although there's the occasional night I'll be up way too late.

Yes, they are. If nothing else, it gave me plenty of energy to work on the patio today.

I'm very bad about figuring out when enough is enough. My last attempt at losing weight ended up with me in the hospital for almost three weeks, and a chest tube for at least another 3 weeks (my memory fails me - it might have been as many as 5 or 6 weeks). Combine that with a doctor that had a hard time removing the tube (ouch) and it actually took well over a year before I didn't have residual pain on bad days. That made me too cautious (ie. little to no exercise), and so eventually my mediocre eating habits led to weight gain.
This time I'm trying to do it better, but only time will tell. I sometimes really forget that I'm still over 300 lbs. I want to do more than I'm physically capable of. And I'm still not particularly fit. It's interesting as I had the HRM on this afternoon under my swimsuit. I was going outside to do a little gardening, then my 30 mins of laps. So for fun I decided to see how many calories I burned in an hour. Turns out it was just over 400 cals (with an avg. heart rate of 111, top 141). I don't think I worked particularly hard, but I'm just not as fit as I'd like to be.
Today was a gorgeous day outside. It was warmer than it was expected and I spent a fair amount of time outside cleaning the patio and getting pots ready to plant. So I've got 36 pots ready, and I'm not done. This tells me that we have way too many pots. The forecast is for rain tomorrow, but if I can get the rest ready that would be great. If not, I'll finish them up on the next nice day.
And that cherry yogurt sorbet on today's food list is homemade. A couple of years (maybe 4 or 5) ago I was on a homemade sorbet kick. It worked out well, but the only negative thing is that by the time the fruit was ready and the sorbet made, most of the summer was over. So the next year I made more and canned it into quart sealers. To help keep the colour I put them into a box in the crawl space... and yep, forgot about them. I found them this winter when I was cleaning out the crawl space, but wasn't sure if I was going to use them or not. Using the recipe (although I'm sure I cut back on the sugar) I worked it out to ~120 cals for a 1/2 cup, but all carbs (well, a little alcohol as well). So tonight I took a cup of the canned mix and added a half cup of low fat yogurt. It will be frozen by the time we take it, but it works out to ~150 cals with some protein now (for a larger serving). I don't think it's something I'll have every night, but it's a good way to use some of it up this summer.
Well, so much for the nice weather. It was cold in the morning and raining in the afternoon. So I caught up on a few indoor tasks and will leave the gardening until Monday or Tuesday.
The weather was mediocre this morning so I did some time on the treadmill. I was originally going to do 30 mins, but I ended up doing two sessions. I'd pretty much decided that I was going to do two sessions, if I felt like it. I decided I really wanted to get back into a bit of a routine this week, so Monday seemed like a good day to start. I raised the calories back to where I was before the rest week as well. Oh yes, and I made some biscotti this morning.
I spent a while outside in the afternoon finishing up the rest of the pots. I think it turns out that there are 52 pots to plant (yikes). I also think I've given myself another project, which I'll start this week. We've had kiwi vines up the side of the garage, which did not winter well. Two of the plants have never flowered and the others, well they've never really done much (little fruit, usually drops off anyway), so I'm going to take them out this week and use that bed for some tomatoes and peppers. Tomorrow is errand day, but I'm hoping to get most of them done before lunch so I can spend part of the afternoon outside (before my swim). It's not nice enough to work outside after swimming (not yet at least), so it kind of limits the schedule.

I got this insane idea to start another project yesterday. Hey, I might as well since I'm home at the moment. We've had kiwi vines up the side of the garage for the last 9 or 10 years. They grow a lot, fruit little, and if you're not careful they fall off when they're ripe. They're actually mini kiwis, about the size of a grape. Anyway, in the end we decided that they were history. I spent part of the morning and afternoon cutting and clipping the vines back to a small stump. Late in the day I decided just to see how hard a job it was going to be. I put the fork into the ground, the plant moved easily, and except for the two-foot long roots it actually came out pretty easily. So did plant 2 and 3. I was thinking how easy this task had been until I got to the last plant. I suspect it was planted too close to the edge of the bed and the roots had spread down instead of out. Well, there was a point I didn't think it was ever going to come out. I mean it was loose, I put my entire weight behind it and it didn't budge. I did eventually get it cut out with the spade, although it's a good thing I only plan to make this a vegetable patch.
I've still got to clean the bed up a bit and dig in some better soil. Then I think I'll just put the umbrella out for the table and relax for a couple of days. Of course, then I'll need to start planting. This weekend coming up is our long weekend (Victoria Day), but I'll likely wait until Tuesday to start planting (depending on the forecast). It's a full moon and we'll usually get a lovely clear night... and if it's cold, definitely frost.
Between errands this morning and about 4 or 5 hours of garden work I didn't get in any planned exercise. Well, no HR monitor stuff. I definitely broke a sweat at least a couple of times in the garden. Especially with that damn kiwi vine. I adjusted my cals down at lunch since I pretty much figured I wasn't going to get on the treadmill. The plan I've come up with is:
2150 - no exercise (or no HRM style exercise)
2400 - 60 min days
2700 - lifting days
At my current weight I'm getting roughly that for no workout, active, and strenuous days. It's a little higher actually, but I'm not aiming for maintenance either. I figure that way if I'm busy doing other things (although still moving) I can just drop the calories a little. The next couple of weeks will be the busiest (until planting is finished) and then it should be easier to plan. At the moment I'm pretty much driven by what the weather is like outside. It's only going to affect the cardio though, I still plan to keep the lifting days Mon/Wed/Fri. Once I get through the planting and such the plan is:
I realized that perhaps 5 days in a row was my biggest problem for my general fitness level. By Thursday I was struggling, so perhaps that might serve me better as a rest day. Anyway, we'll see how that goes. Stage 2 starts Friday (be afraid, be very afraid).

I feel ya on the yard work thing. I am knee deep in it this time of year too so my rest days are hardly resting right now. Still you hafta do what you hafta do.
Yes, the sad little vines are all gone. Compacted into three large yard bags. It really did look like more all spread out. I know have a lovely (well dug) new bed to grow tomatoes, peppers, and by request a zucchini. That's the one thing about the place my mother and I bought - there is no real backyard. There's a pool, more than 500sqft of patio (I only know this because we laid tile on it years ago), and some borders that we've tried to make good use of. The bed up the side of the garage we paid someone to cut the concrete out a couple of years after we got here. I think veggie patch will be a good use.

I'm actually starting to enjoy it a little. The yard is quite small, it shouldn't be this hard. Last year I had an hour's help from a contractor my mother knows to cut back some of the trees. As much as she likes to help, some of the tasks are just too heavy for her. Someone needed to put a lot of strength keeping the branches from taking down the fence while someone sawed them off. Of course, the guy brought an electric trimmer (I use a hand saw). It makes sense this summer to finish off any bigger tasks as I'll be back in school in the fall, and next summer I will have to work (since I'll be broke).
Having said all that... I do like the pots, and as long as I can, we'll still fill lots of them up. I went back to growing a few things from seed this year, although the crawl space has issues (dampness that you don't realize) so next year I'll make some adjustments. I'm thinking of mixing up a batch of Pisco Sours for the weekend though and just enjoying the nice weather (if we get any). Next week I'll start planting.
Pisco Sours - key lime juice, sugar, water, pisco (chilean brandy)... made with key lime juice, splenda, water, and currently sljivovica (croatian plum brandy) since our lcbo no longer sells pisco.
I think, I think, I think the major tasks are done outside. I just don't think there are any big tasks I could even invent. The timing is perfect as technically this is the last day of my rest week. Even though I plan to make Thurs a rest day, I will do some treadmill work tomorrow. I suspect I can manage three days before Sunday.
So, just adding the food for the day:
Food: 2148 (24% fat, 40% carbs, 35% protein)
Breakfast: egg/egg white omelet with cheese, cracked wheat oatmeal bread, orange (554)
AM Snack: soy nuts (134)
Lunch: mixed bean soup, smoked ham, fruit salad (415)
PM Snack: apple, protein shake (171)
Dinner: baked chicken with tomato sauce and cheese, broccoli, butter, salad w/dressing (578)

I got a late start this morning (had to drive my mother to the train station as she was going into Toronto for lunch), and so I really only did 30 mins on the treadmill before I really just wanted to have lunch. I kind of sat there doing a back and forth and decided eventually to have the lunch and then swim for 30 mins in the afternoon. I changed into my swimsuit (with the HRM on) and went outside. I did a little watering and since I had my runners on I decided to do a little walking first, then make it up with the swimming afterwards.
Well, I ended up doing the entire 30 mins walking in circles around the pool. If the cat thinks I'm crazy walking on the treadmill I'm not sure what he thought watching me walk around and around in circles. I kept going because I realised that my heart rate was keeping up higher than on the treadmill. It really didn't make sense. I felt like I was walking around the same pace as I do inside, although I thought perhaps I was going a little faster. On the TM I usually walk at 2.5mph with a 5% incline. Some days I'll do really short jogs (like a min) at 4mph, although at the same incline.
Anyway, after I finished I got out the big measuring tape and decided I was doing roughly 33 meters in one circuit (slightly more but I'm rounding down). So I timed myself walking it (20 secs), and the light jog I tried (15 secs). Now, I know I likely didn't maintain that pace (even the slower one) for the entire 30 mins, but still. It didn't feel like a real push. Well, the jog did, but that's mainly because it pushes my heart rate up. So doing the calculations:
3/min x 33m x 60min = 5940m = 3.69 miles
4/min x 33m x 60min = 7920m = 4.92 miles
I seriously cannot walk at 3.5mph on the treadmill, and jogging for a minute at 4mph just about kills me. Yet, I appear to be walking faster in circles on a flat surface. And it was a lovely day out, so why not. According to the HRM I burned more calories doing that for 30 minutes than I did earlier on the treadmill. So, I suspect this means on the nicer days maybe I'll take the walking outside. Tomorrow though it's back to the weights and Stage 2!
Oh, and I'm completely bummed about the body fat testing. I finally got up the nerve to do it, and it looks like the place is closed. The website was gone last week, but I managed to find the phone number - disconnected. There are two universities close by that have one, but both are using them in research labs and don't do general public testing. I found another school a bit further away, but it's unclear if they do public testing so I'm waiting to hear back. I don't know why I want to know so much, because I know it's going to be really bad.
One addition as the two cats just came downstairs. Over the past few years we've had mourning doves nest in or around the yard. Usually in a old flat feeder (that none of the birds liked), but also in a hanging basket at the front door. They're fairly tame birds - the one nesting in the basket used to let me water the basket as long as I talked quietly to her while doing it. I'm pretty sure we blew all chances of that happening today. We have two house cats, both male (and brothers). The little one has the potential and the patience to hunt. They only go outside with company, and only into the backyard, so they were with me today. The little one settled under a chair and waited. I saw the dove land on the patio and saw him attempt to take it (no luck) and it flew up to the old nesting place. The big one freaked out, jumped on a nearby bench (knocked things flying) and he ran one way as the bird flew off. I suspect the old nesting place will be ruled out, although it is interesting in the fact that there was another (or the same) dove back half an hour later when we were swimming.
Hey nice find on walking outside burning more calories. I wonder why that is. I always run outside or walk outside as opposed to tready when the weather allows. Not for the calories but for my sanity.
And the first dove that nested in the backyard. She was probably the least affected by our comings and goings. I could stand on a stool beside the nest and hold the camera up and take pictures. This was, I believe, only a few days before the two chicks left the nest. The spent a good month coming back to the yard to sit on a couple of wooden chairs we had. At that point we only had one, very old cat, that wasn't a threat.
Hey nice find on walking outside burning more calories. I wonder why that is. I always run outside or walk outside as opposed to tready when the weather allows. Not for the calories but for my sanity.
The only thing I can think of is that I really am walking faster. I suspect it's some circuits faster, some a little slower, but that the overall pace is faster. I admit that I never walk outside, especially in public. I know, I should work on that. I used to joke that with the treadmill if I really needed to stop, I could just stop. That at least I wouldn't be stuck somewhere, not able to walk back. In a way, I think the HR monitor has helped a lot. It's given me an idea of how I can change up the exercise routine, while still getting the same basic effect. I suspect as long as the weather is nice I'll repeat the outdoors walking in the future. As it gets warmer I'll likely do what I did today, wear my swimsuit so I can take a dip when finished.
I can fix the hydration issue fairly easily though.
