Oh, again with the yearning for a treadmill. WHY MUST YOU TORTURE ME SO.

(also, idk if it's because I haven't got a paid account anymore, or if ads have always been up there in your LJ and I haven't noticed, but the page is telling me in big loud letters that it cured its acid reflux. Made me laugh.)

Going for a faster-than-slow-but-slower-than-fast walk for 30 minutes yesterday is what made me feel a little better about the fact that I prolly exceeded my daily limit after eating dinner (after staying on around 400 all day - and NOT starving). That pissed me off, but I assured myself that it's only day one, I'm yet to get into th habit, and I've started exercising again. The more I exercise the more calories I'll be allowed (not that I'll be willing to increase my daily intake all that much, because I'm somewhat paranoid), so I should concentrate on getting fit. Yet again. It's becoming a regular summer thing for me - I suspect the clothes have a lot to do with it.

Oh hai, HTML, why are you not working! I can't see anything wrong.

I usually go with the treadmill's numbers for burned calories and the food package's numbers for intake, just because that's prolly more accurate than this site’s blanket numbers

yyyy, I do that with my calorie counting book. I only use it if I can't get a reading from the food itself. Though I don't have access to a treadmill, so I use the book's numbers for walking, which even then seems a bit shaky. There're a lot of hills around where I live.
Still. It's a number.
BUT OMG. I reallyreally want this treadmill that I saw at the shops. You give it your body type (and weight? I can't remember. Though you can prolly get some that weigh you while you're standing on it) and... something else, and it gives you a more accurate number of calories burned. Oh, and measures your heart rate and all that too.

I just reallyreally want a treadmill. Or even one of those ... thingimajigs... you know, those things that swing your legs while you push on them with your arms... GOD. FAIL. I can't remember what they're called, or even how to describe them, but they're meant to be really good for a whole body exercise ( *sticks finger in the air* which I have learned is much better for toning of the abs, as the abdominal muscles never work alone, but with the back, glutes, etc.). Plus they're quite compact, so I could stow one away in my room!

Letters ahoy!

Dear Body,

I also wish to lose stomach and thighs. Do not touch my boobs. And only take a little of my booty - I'm somewhat fond of that. Ho.

Tough love,
Cathryn.

Please to be stopping eating the boob fat first.

That actually frightens me. Boob loss. I haven't noticed any yet, obviously, but I can't stand to lose any more. I'm pretty sure my body type puts the weight on my lower body before anywhere else (which is sort of obvious by the fact that I can have bones sticking out on my chest and shoulders, but be at the overweight end of healthy), so would it perhaps come off the same way? Or would it be harder to lose that fat? WILL IT GO FOR MY BOOB FAT? Will I be like Debra Messing, who I've noticed has the same general shape as me, in her Will & Grace days when she was rake thin up top, nice on the bottom, and BOOBLESS?

Are you there god, it's me, Cathryn.
