So, here’s what I’ve been doing…
Before Christmas I didn’t eat after 7pm for 6 weeks - I didn’t lose any weight, but I was proud of myself and felt like I had a lot more energy. So I started doing that again this month and I’ve been working out consistently about 2 days a week doing circuit training with a workout program on the Wii called EA Sports Active. I started out doing 20 minutes and am now at 40 minutes each time. It uses workout bands for weights and it includes
I then decided to count calories this week – 1500 each day. It’s really hard for me to count calories, but not eating after
Result-- So far I’ve lost 5 pounds and 2% body fat.
I think that the intense workouts and the counting calories finally got me through my 194 lb. plateau that I've been at since last February. Yay!

Hmm, I wonder if Erin will let me get a Wii so I can exercise! ;)
Thanks for the update! I've also found more energy. We should each list out what we find to do with more energy. For me, I've now found energy to do the following:
* Play racquetball (which I really enjoy)
* Read fiction (I'm not as tired, so I feel more up to reading, for some reason)
* Wrestle with the girls - I even play doing some exercises with them--and they keep getting heavier!
* Learn to juggle (I've gone over 150 catches with 3 balls!)
* Work on the house (the other week, I even cleaned out my rain gutters!)
More to be continued...
How about you?
