Rating: I have realized that I am too busy for 40 minute workouts again. I can much more easily fit it a 10 to 20 minute workout. I am going to stop feeling guilty for not working out for 40 minutes and just do something.

8 July 2008 Workout

Time: 6:20 AM
Weight beforehand: 355.7 lbs
Length: 15 minutes
Program: TPRU
Elliptical Reported Calories Burned: 269
Rating: I have to stop telling my wife what my weight is because she is working harder than I am to lose weight right now and having less success due to being a nursing mother. She hit my shoulder this morning. :)

And the Verdict Is...

Assistant Ward Clerk. This likely means that I will be assisting with the finances, making sure that an accurate account of all donations is kept and the deposits are made correctly. I had the same position when my wife and I were dating.

Of course, the person extending the calling didn't know if I would be helping with finances or membership issues, so I'll find out more on Sunday I expect.

Oh Dear...

My wife called me this afternoon to let me know that our church leaders have asked to speak with us this evening. I was recently a teacher to the 9 year old children, and when I was replaced, I was told that all things happen for a reason and to not get too comfortable.

We'll see what comes up, but I can assure you that I am not too comfortable right now. :)

Weight beforehand: 357.6 lbs
Length: 40 minutes

Elliptical Reported Calories Burned: 554
Rating: I wanted to sleep in, but I had to use the bathroom, and then I decided I should work out. I'm pleased that my weight has remained the same since the last workout though.

19 June 2008 workout

Time: 6:20 AM
Weight beforehand: 357.7 lbs
Length: 20 minutes
Program: The first 20 minutes of TPRU
Elliptical Reported Calories Burned: 385
Rating: I resisted the temptation to do computer stuff this morning in order to do a half-workout. Since it was only 20 minutes, I decided to do the TPRU. It is still really hard.

Weight Came Back

By the time I got up this morning, I didn't feel like I had the time I really needed to do a full workout, and I skipped doing a partial workout in favor of trying to fix my wife's laptop (it still needs work).

Only 2 of the 5 lbs came back today, as the scale said 360.4 this morning.
