Today’s topic: How do you log your eating and/or workouts?
Well I use to log my food via spark people app and before that pen and pad. Both times I wasn’t successful in staying consistent. I’ll log one day, skip about 3 days and log again. I finally sat down with myself and ask, “Martinus why you can’t stay consistent with logging your food?” The answer I came up with is that rather ask myself “are you hungry” before I put food in my mouth than log what I’m eating. So I stop logging and started asking are you
My weekend in D.C. was amazing it started with a 7 hour train ride from Hartford to Washington, DC; the cool part is we made a stop at the Baltimore Penn Station, that’s where I’m going for fitbloggin’12.
We got to D.C. around 3 pm, check in the hotel and went on our way. We hopped on the metro to go to this Brazilian restaurant called Fogo De Chao and the food was amazing. They had this card that you flipped over when you wanted them to bring you meat and the salad bar was huge! It’s foodie heaven!
Here’s a video of Fogo De Chao!
Afterwards we caught the metro back to Union Station to go our tour titled: Monuments by Moonlight. I’m glad we took this tour because it was very humid during the day. We stop by all the major monuments and got off at the MLK, JFK, and Lincoln Memorial.
The next day I got and ran 3 miles in the hotel gym. Afterwards we went to B. Smith’s restaurant for brunch; I’m proud of myself because I only had 2 mimosas instead of the 4 I would usually get.
Here’s video about the restaurant
After brunch we went to the Holocaust Museum and came back to the hotel relaxed the rest of the day. On the last day I woke up and ran another 3 miles, had breakfast and checked out of the hotel. On the way back the train stopped in NYC so I walked around to stretch my legs only to find that they have Papaya Dog in the train station; 2 hotdogs and papaya juice please! That was the highlight of my train ride. If I gained weight this week it was well worth it.
Weigh-in Wednesday
Since there are a lot of things going on in this post I am not going to go into detail of my measurements. Last week I weighed 326.7 lbs. Let’s see what I weigh this week.
This week I weigh 325.3 lbs. – last week 326.6 lbs. = 1.3 pounds lost. I am surprise that I lost weight, I ate so well in D.C. I was pretty sure that I gain a pound or two. This shows I can go on vacation and still lose weight.
