I made a bad mistake tying in lowering my soda drinking and no caffeine after 12 pm 3 days a week. What was I think?? That caffeine thing is going to suck!

Ouch! I had to take a 2 pronged approach to it. I got rid of the afternoon caffeine last month, so I’ll cheer you on all this month!

I think I was just so happy for March to be over that I didn’t think through my rules quite clearly. Only the second day and I can see alterations that need to be made.

Do what you need to do. We have fruit, remember. If you need to relax one of the rules, please do so.

Went to the pool with my work out buddy to try swimming, said our goal was 30 laps. Only he was thinking laps, and i was thinking lengths…eep! I managed 25 laps (50 lengths), which was almost double what i thought i would be able to do. I am super pleased with myself, and totally exhausted! (but in a good way). Will definitely be making this part of my weekly routine.

Tasty salad for lunch and fresh veggies for dinner – month off to a good start. Nearly blew it craving a 2AM drunk slice though.

Friday was a good start to a new month: ate all my meals at home, lifted at the gym, and went to see an (admittedly bad) show at 7 Stages with Leslie.

I’m really surprised how little I’m eating and still staying satisfied. Not every day’s like this, of course, but yesterday certainly was. I had enough leftover calories to have some of Leslie’s amaretto cheesecake and still come in around 300 under my goal! It really is a shame the veggie burgers I made don’t taste that good, because they’re nicely filling and have so few calories to them. It’s probably worth searching out other recipes or trying to tweak the one I have.

Just pile some CHEEEEEESE on ‘em! That’ll fix ’em right up.

Ha! You’ve obviously never met me, Pelly; I’m cheese-averse. I’ve gotta be in the mood to enjoy anything stronger than mozzarella.

:) pelly

!! Well then. Hot sauce disguises a multitude of flaws. Man, I almost wish I were cheese-averse. Oh well, I’d just find something else to eat too much of.

I know the feeling Dave. I’m not much of a fan of veggie burgers but they have this pretty delicious veggie chik’n made by Quorn. You can get it in the same section or the healthy freezer section at the grocery store.

kanata had a couple thoughts.

Heart.half.16 3 · 4,865 pts

Hmmm…my game day isn’t showing up. How else can I whine that the no caffeine after 12 p.m. rule is already sucking huge and I only follow it 3 days a week.

:) ocherdraco

For some reason it doesn’t show up at the top on the first day of the month. Try clicking “Your Current Game” at the bottom of the page, and then “Start today’s turn.”

I know! I would love to have favorites on Health Month, mainly as a way of keeping track of the great ideas that people share. This game is a veritable goldmine of ideas about healthful living.

I should go workout before I go into work… I am physically calm but doing mental jumping jacks…I don’t have anything too exciting planned…

First day of April. This snooze button rule I made is going to be brutal! The hope for this month, though is that I don’t need to be healed! Go team Elliott!

I know the feeling – that was me last month. Let me know if you need any help getting your month started on the right foot!

Actually with bike invites and walking invites and Yoga invites, I’d say you’ve already done a pretty good job of getting me started! Plus the lunch & BN counts towards being social…

I had the same issue last month so I tried to scale it down this month. Somehow that didn’t work. Huh go figure. :) At least I think my goals are more realistic this month.

PoconoPete has a tip for the Eat fewer calories rule.

Heart.half.16 9 · 5,821 pts

Put an ice back around your neck for twenty minutes a day to tweak your metabolism. Also, just after eating high calorie foods, do 10 squats, and 10 wall push ups. It will decrease absorption of sugars.

:) careychristie

Hey, that’s really good advice! I cannot tolerate an icepack for 20 minutes, but the squats and pushups are possible.

Only slept 5 hours, had to get up and eat. But I think things will settle down in a few days.

I love the first day of the week when you can skip a bunch of stuff and still get full points cause you’re still within your quota.

The simple rules are simple. The hard rules, being anything that takes more than 30 minutes of commitment, are hard!

hexli needs fruit, badly.

Heart.empty.16 -2 · 5,855 pts

I lost 1 life point because of the following things…
  • Ate some red meat or pork

I had a party yesterday and remembered to avoid alcohol but I forgot my rule of avoiding red meat.

Went to Chicago to pick up my brother. (8 hour round trip.) Made it hard to stick to the rules, but most of the stuff I have is less than 7 days a week, except take my meds, which I did do.

Heh, they’re mostly nested or easy. Like “eat breakfast.” Well, it doesn’t say what my breakfast has to be, so I had cheese popcorn for breakfast today.

Weight: -- kgs since start of month
4 Energy: -- I could read a book without getting winded
4 Calm: -- Something was worrying me recently
4 Mood: -- I'm not smiling, but I could if I wanted to

A bit run down and stressed about big research stuff and a million small things that need to happen before I head to Wales on Sunday. But the Quantified Self meeting I hosted last night was awesome and I exchanged my busted-ass rainjacket for a swank new one for free. Would say I’m doing better but something in my jaw is really sore and worrying me.

Pretty alright day! Was hoping to run 4 miles but due to poor planning I had to cut it short for dim sum and friend date! Ate pretty crappily… veggies tomorrow.

Yeah! Dim sum is awesome and worth cutting short a run, I think.
