Last month I thought my Marathon Weight was within reach… So much for wishful thinking. My average weight went up last month. It was 184lbs, up 1.4lbs. Which is not a tragedy in the scheme of things. My lowest weight was 181lbs and highest was 187.2lbs. As I’ve said before, Intermittent Fasting is a back…
I’m inching closer to that Marathon Weight! My average weight for June was 182.6lbs. My heaviest weight was 186.5 and my lightest weight was 176.4. The up and down game continues. But it was a significant drop in my average weight from the previous months. May’s average was 185.0lbs. So I went down almost 2.5lbs.…
I was thinking about the book Tiny Habits and using it to help me with a bad habit of mine. Night snacking. I don’t always snack at night. But I snack enough that I should try to curb it. My snack of choice is tortilla chips and salsa. BJ Fogg recommends that you look closely…
Why are the first 24 hours of an extended fast so difficult? You’d think the longer you went without fasting, the harder it would be. But, no. Every time I do an extended fast, it’s in the first day that’s a killer. That’s when I have to deal with temptations, excuses, or rationalizations. Every time!…
Resistance is lurking every where! And just when you think you’ve conquered it in one place, it pops up and wrecks havoc in another place. I’ve been patting myself on the back for being productive. I’ve been focusing on my daily “frogs” for the last couple of weeks. I thought I had shown Resistance who’s…
I can’t handle portion control. Or at least not portion control when the food is already on my plate. When the food is on my plate, my childhood programming kicks in and I have to eat everything on the plate. Period. Everything. Even when I go to an all-you-can-eat buffet. When I’m on my third…
I continue to move closer to my Marathon Weight. My average weight for May was 185.0lbs. Down from 186.2 in April. Yay! As I’ve mentioned before, Intermittent Fasting is a back and forth kind of dance. That’s why I track my average weight. During May, my weight went as high as 189.4lbs and as low…
Sometimes the smallest thing can sway your decisions. Like a decal for instance… I’ve been thinking of using one of the bulk email services. Why? I’ve been playing with the idea of creating a newsletter for people interested in my plays. Or for Intermittent Fasting… You need to use a mailer provider to send out…
I’ve used affirmations for years. I think that’s one of the reasons the Miracle Morning and the SAVERS were so easy for me to adopt. Sometimes I use wishful affirmations where you make a statement that you hope will some day be true. Like “I have an abundance of wealth” or “I pay all my…
I finally feel like I’m getting back on track towards my Marathon Weight! My average weight for April was 186.2lbs. Down three pounds from my March average. Yay! What changed this month? I didn’t do as many multi-day fasts as I did in March or February. But I did two 41-hour fasts. One at the…
