Upgraded to Commander today so I was just driving around most of the day. Stopped by Station and ate lunch then went out and about againg running errands, visiting stations and going on a couple calls. Got back to station 2 and worked out and crashed for the night... well... I will crash eventually.. :o)

Good day all in all. When I stopped by Station 8 Jay had shredded BBQ chicken. WOW that smelled soooooo good. That was the hardest thing to be around. That and Pizza... the guy here at 2 had pizza. Luckily they ate before I got here. That's one thing I'm definitely craving. But, it's no big deal.. I know I can make it to the end.

Talked to Zak today. He's doing better. Said he lost some weight while he was in the hospital and was going to try to get back into the program if the doc says it's ok. Good to hear his voice. Especially since I've been slacking and haven't called him. I've not been great at that lately.

Thanks again to everyone for their support. It's a great cause, it's helping them and it's helping me. I'm feeling better than I have in a while and I'm losing weight... it's a win win situation!!

Catch ya later!!!!!

Breakfast -- Atkins Strawberry Shake

Lunch -- Keva Juice Rasmanian Devil with Banana and Protein

Workout -- 1 hr on eliptical, 15 min on bike

Dinner -- Chicken broth with black pepper and blended grn chili. Green Machine Naked Juice... (not my favorite...)

---------------------------------

Feeling pretty good overall. Clothes are fitting better, my cardio is going good, and it's easier to pass up food after 12 days.... Don't get me wrong, I really want to eat something... if nothing else, to have the sensation of actually biting through something ... ha ha.. but all in all it's not that bad. Just wish I could lose the weight faster...

It's really making the month go fast, which sucks because it's summer.. it needs to be as long as possible!!

Breakfast -- Atkins Strawberry Shake

Lunch -- Blue Machine Naked Juice

Dinner -- Tomato Soup and Cranbery/Raspberry/Orange Juice

Workout -- Treadmill.... 66 minutes total + cool down (1345 calories)

---------------------------

So I usually wait till the evening to workout at the station, but we got busy. So I didn't get a chance to get on the treadmill until about 1:00am.... naturally, after 27 minutes into my workout (and 585 calories) the tones go off... Person attacked by a dog, possible pit bull.... get changed and go to the call... Not a pit bull... person was nipped at by a chihuahua.... ARE YOU SERIOUS!!! PEOPLE, COME ON!!! You're gonna know if it was a PIT BULL or a CHIHUAHUA.

So when we got back to the station, I jumped back on for another 39 minutes and finished it out. Ended up doing a total of 66 minutes + cool down...

Day 10 done!!

Snack -- yeah.. had to today... had some chicken broth with blended green chili in it and black pepper... yummm

Workout --- 1 hour + cool down on the eliptical (5 miles, 1085 cal.)

Another good day, except it's hard to remember where a Keva Juice is located when you're running errands and working. Better preplanning.

Workout was good once I finally got to the gym. Kept a good cardio heart rate for an hour. Stayed in the zone.

Not too much going on other than work at the Union Hall today.

-------------------

I actually haven't felt weak until a little today. But I may just be tired, I didn't sleep very well at the station. All in all I feel pretty good. May not be drinking enough water though either. Just finished 40 oz of Water and feel better.

So after the gym I went to the movies with my friend Monika. Got there and wasn't feeling great. Still a bit wobbly from earlier. I decided maybe I needed a few more calories... and possible some sugar... ha ha. So I had a "LARGE" shake at the theater... which was about 10 ounces... ugh. and a Diet Coke... probably not the greatest thing... but I felt better afterwards. The movie was good to... go see the PROPOSAL

When I got home, I didn't feel like eating anything and then when I did it was too late... so ... I went to bed...

Day 9 around the corner..

Breakfast -- Strawberry Shake by Atkins

Lunch -- No Fat Pineapple Sherbet, orange juice, lemon juice

Dinner -- Cream of Mushroom Soup, Water

Workout -- 1 Hr Treadmill and Cooldown (1226 Calories, 4.57 miles)


-----------------

On Shift second day of my 48 hr shift. I've been looking over my log and feeling very un-inventive. Especially after reading through some of the pages of other participants. I may have to continue to be un-inventive but steal some of their ideas...

Second night that I got my workout done early... not as early, but being done by 12:30am is GREAT.
