Football season is almost over and now we can really focus on weight loss. So far, Tracy has lost 10 lbs and converted quite a few fat pounds to muscle. Football and building a garden have contributed big time to the change. Just 35 more lbs to go and Tracy will reach her goal. Lisa has converted quite a few lbs to muscle as well and continues to get stronger and stronger. We both look forward to using the summer to refine our eating habits, slim down and GET STRONG!

Muscle weight woes

671 days ago

Ah, the woes of muscle weight. Getting in football shape is doing great things for our stamina, our speed, our strength and our waist lines (Tracy has not had a Dr. Pepper in 2 weeks-and has finally passed the unpleasant stage) but it's doing nothing for our numbers. We are both exactly where we started out in the first place. So, in order to jump-start, motivate, kick-in-the-pants...whatever, we are going to find the fabulous weight tracker ticker things so many sites seem to have, buy batteries for the camera and get this show on a good road. We have completly enjoyed see all the amazing sites everyone else has put together, and our question is...WHERE DO YOU ALL FIND THE TIME? Please, please share your time secrets. Otherwise, workouts have been great. Our coaches keep us hopping, our menus are improving and we are learning to breathe again. Other than the unfortunate incident where Lisa broke Tracy's nose during a drill (it was an accident, but man did it sting!) ...

Football fitness

FOOTBALL DRILLS TO HELP YOU MIX UP YOUR WORKOUT (Or, the crazy crap Lisa and Tracy do on Sundays and Wednesdays in order to get in shape) Yesterday morning was football practice number 4 since Lisa and I started the million pound match up. Conditioning is key to our team success and coach is always thinking up new conditioning activities to keep the feminine grousing to a minimum. Yesterday, we did hillsprints and hill bear crawls. Now, I firmly believe in the importance of conditioning, but crawling uphill with my butt in the air and a 120lb receiver racing up my ass telling me to go faster is not my idea of motivation. If Coach wasn't 6'5" and 300lbs he might have been blowing that whistle every time he tooted. Fortunately, the rest of the lineman types (women who are of sturdier body types) protested as well. Next time, we will split ourselves off so the "little" people we protect during the game can bear crawl up the hill ...

Horrible start

FRUSTRATED!!! Okay, this is Tracy. I have to travel quite a bit for my job and now that I'm keeping track, my on-the-road eating habits are atrocious. Not only do I make horrible choices for meals, but my mind has created twisted little ways to justify the garbage I eat. "It's okay Tracy, you're in a hurry. McDonald's doesn't have calories if you're in a hurry and you have to drive all day.....or my favorite...You work on your feet all day, that will burn off the donut in about an hour, then you will deserve Taco Bell for lunch....You'll be much more pleasant to the customers if you have that Dr. Pepper." I HAD GONE 5 DAYS WITHOUT A DR. PEPPER AND I BLEW IT!!! So, I purchased a little Igloo cooler and have been filling the freezer with those little microwaveable steamer bags of vegetables. Any other healthy foods that will fit in the cooler will go along with me too. I am bound and determined to eliminate fast food from life unless ...

The enemies...

Enemy #1-Tracy's addiction If we were to open a vein, I believe we would see Dr. Pepper flowing along merrily. This will be the largest obstacle for me. Enemy #2-Lisa addiction Tracy's alternative solution: TEA! Lots and lots and lots of herbal tea! I might pee all the time, but the system will run cleaner, my teeth will be happier and all that sugar won't be riding around with me in spare tire form. Sorry makers of Dr. Pepper...you might see a marked decrease in sales in Vancouver, WA. :) Lisa's solutions to the chocoholic syndrome: Gum, Water and more Gum!
