The last Status Report post I did was in the beginning of July.

Wow, really?

.

So here is the deal.  I can continue to be a little bitch and ignore these posts, and talk a big game about “coming back” over, and over, and over again while I sit on my fat ass.

Or I can own my mistakes, accept the fact that I’ve GAINED ALMOST EVERYTHING BACK and move on from there.

I’m kind of tired of being a little bitch, so it’s time to own this shit.

It’s that time again, time for another Weekend Warriors Challenge!

Oh wait, there isn’t actually another challenge this weekend? D’oh!

NO BOTHER! Craig over at My Life, Take Eight was a bit bummed about not doing well on Brandon’s last Weekend Warriors Challenge, so he is doing it again this weekend.  In a show of support, Erin and I (and maybe a few more?) have decided to do it again with him!  And honestly, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to do it again anyway, because weekends are still very troublesome to me.  This way I will have something to work towards. :)

So here are my goals for this weekends challenge:

  • Run/Walk/Jog 20 miles. I didn’t quite make this goal last weekend, but I came close. I’m a bit worried, only because both my run yesterday and my second run Wednesday (caution: both links contain whining) were less than spectacular, but I plan to rest today and get back into it full force tomorrow. WooT!
  • One round of Yoga.  I’ve only been Yoga once before on this journey, and that’s when I was trapped in my apartment due to Snowmageddon.  It wouldn’t hurt to mix up exercise routines a bit, so I’ll go for another round this weekend.  I’ll be using the same YRG (Yoga for Regular Guys) DVD that I used before.
  • Average 1800 calories a day.  Something I should be doing anyway, but my calorie tracking has wavered a bit (ie, has stopped completely). I am going grocery shopping tonight, so I will have no excuse to NOT eat home cooked meals, where I can keep better track of the calories too.  So WooT to that.

What about you?  Any plans for the weekend?  Care to partake in another round of Weekend Warrior with us? 

Gotta thank Brandon of So Long, Fat Ass for creating this challenge, thus giving me motivation to kick ass 7 days a week. WooT!
