Weekend Weigh in - 185lbs, Happy

Friday, Saturday, or Sunday - I always step on the scale.

My blood glucose levels are good, cholesterol good, blood pressure good, flexibility good, exercise recovery good... My work has always put together free testing for these numbers.

But still, I'm over weight and have too much fat (literally, not negatively). I've always been over weight... Some years I do well in exercising and watching health and other years, not so much. This year has been on the not soo much side...

My biggest problem is I eat to fulfill my emotions. Sad - eat. Stress - eat. Happy - enjoy food. Want to celebrate - eat. Want to cry - eat. Want to strangle someone? - eat.

The second issue is I'm under motivated to exercise alone... I did ROTC (with a friend in college), Crossfit (with a friend at work), and HipHop dancing class, (because I love dancing and wanted to learn)... but get me alone, an non routine schedule, or something I'm uncomfortable with and all exercise stops.

There's a lot of information out there on losing weight, being healthy, exercising. But as one podcast put it earlier this week - How much do you really want to change? How important is this to you really?  That doughnut, the tv-show, and so forth are instantly gratifying to you, so if you truly don't want to change, you won't. It's too easy to say Not Now.

My goal - is to continue to be happy, and learn to be healthy. Today I weigh 185 lbs. I've over-eaten for lunch and have yet to exercise. 

After this post. I'm going to do 25 sit-ups, 25 squats, 20 (knee) push-ups, and 30 Jumping-Jacks. 

And then I'm going to make a pie for Pi-Day.

I don't know if I'm going to lose weight while blogging. But I might as well post my weigh-ins and moods.
