Start Weight:	(23 Aug 07) 183.0 lb
Current Weight:	(10 Sep 08) 139.4 lb
Goal Weight:	127.0 lb

following: MillaLite's own diet
performance: losing 0.7 lb a week

Like most Americans, I was clueless about the foods I ate, and what effect they had on me. However, thanks to youtube sites, books, and a thirst for health knowledge, I began to study, learn, & reform my nutrition and fitness. So far it's been successful. I began to slowly alter my eating habits and I've come to a place with food that I think I can keep up for a lifetime.

I hit my main goal of 140 pounds back in early spring 2008. My goal of 127 is just a "maybe someday" goal. I'm in no rush to get there. And I'm happy and healthy if I never do get there. I am totally o.k. with my size, my health, and my vitality.

Some of my favorite youtubers for better health are:
Nutrition by Natalie (on the psychetruth channel - ALL good stuff!)
Sean Croxton's Underground Wellness
and of course, Dr. Mercola

If you know a good health related youtube site, or website, please pass is on!

So here's to life, love, fitness, and never counting calories.... EVER!!

"AROUND THE WORLD" (in 42 Days)
I got in almost 5 miles walking it today, but my pedometer says only 25 minutes was aerobic....so....

25 minutes of focused activity for April 8th.

I'm still here, and trying. Life is making it difficult to do better right now. But I've not given up or forgot... just distracted from my goal.

GO EXPLORERS!!

"AROUND THE WORLD" (in 42 Days)
I didn't get home from work until after midnight. Hope this still counts for Thursday's bonus points.

Team Explorers for Thursday April 3.

60 minutes aerobic walking.

My total miles for the day was 5.65. And since I walked home after midnight, I already .73 miles of a head start for in the morning (friday).

Well, off to bed... finally!

"AROUND THE WORLD" (in 42 Days)
Another Explorer checking in for Wed April 2nd.

65 minutes aerobic walking.

It was really 66, but I know how we are supposed to round down to the nearest.

So, it's 15 til midnight my time. I just took my pedo off for the day. I had 18,565 steps total, and walked an amazing 7.32 miles. Almost as much as yesterday.

But here's the thing. My pedo only counts steps as aerobic if the steps are logged after a 10 minute period. So even though today's steps almost totaled yesterday's.. not all of the steps were counted as aerobic because they were not completed within the same 10 minute time frame.. whatever.. I walked my @ss off, and I will tomorrow too!!

GO TEAM EXPLORERS!!

"AROUND THE WORLD" (in 42 Days)
For Team Explorers:
Tuesday April 1st.

105 minutes of aerobic walking.

Got 19,934 steps in total for the day, of which 12,179 were the above mentioned 105 minutes of aerobic steps. Total mileage today = 7.86. I've had a lot of drop-in unannounced visitors, and starting a new job, and school enrollment issues slowing my pace down early on this week. But I've not been slacking totally, I just took it down a notch... until today!!

And I've still yet to post my thoughts on the mini challenge. I am having trouble with this week's. Mainly because they are 2 things I have pretty much already conquered (mindless munching and reading food labels). Anyway, I'm still thinking it over, and will post up something when I figure out how to word it just right.

The truth about Bleached White Flour. The above is sad, but true. Shame on the U.S. FDA!
