As I enter my second week...

Sunday's Weigh-In: 249.2 lbs
 Goal Weight: 185.0 lbs
Pounds to Lose: 64.2 lbs

As I enter my second week of walking 7 miles a day, you may be wondering is it getting easier? Hell naw! LOL. I drag myself out of bed every morning at the break of dawn. That is not fun. Hey, no pain, no gain, right? To keep myself motivated, I joined the 1000 mile challenge group on Fitocracy. The group's goal is to walk 1000 miles in a year. If I keep walking 7 miles a day I will just barely have 1K by the end of this year. Wish me luck.

Yesterday, a friend pointed out to me I'm 9 pounds away from my first goal. It hadn't even dawn on me how close I am so. I'm too busy focusing on my ultimate goal, 185 lbs. Anyway, I started thinking about what am I going to do to celebrate that accomplishment. Buy clothes? Well, I should be able to squeeze into my old jeans that are in storage, however, I do need some new shirts. 

I found a fitawesome website, dailymile. It's another place you can log your workouts. If you use Walkmeter it automatic updates your workouts on dailymile. What's so cool about dailymile? Well, they have leaderboards for each activity, walking, running, cycling, and swimming. For example, I walked 7 miles so far this week (dailymile start their weeks on Mondays) so I'm number 11 amongst all the walkers, 494 to be exact. I wonder where I'm be tomorrow or at the end of the week? Like Fitocracy, you can "like" user's workout by sending motivations, like 'Nice job',  'Congrats', 'Good luck', 'You're an inspiration' and my favorite, 'I'll beat you :)'. I also added their widget to my blog, it can be seen in the right hand column.

Be sure to check out Food Facts, I found articles from the WebMD about gluten and Happy Healthy (MyFitnessPal) about bread.
