Week One: Stats On My Walking

So yesterday was day 7, the end of the first week of walking.  I feel pretty good about yesterday as I bested a personal record set just 5 days prior....in fact the whole week has been record breaking for me as I've never walked so much before and I'm actually kind of liking it. I have kept with it, rain or shine, early in the morning and late in the evening and everything in between.... So, here are the stats!

Day 1- Thursday, April 29th: 197 lbs. starting weight, 6.87 miles walked, 463 calories burned.


Day 2- Friday, April 30th: 10.24 miles walked, 1092 calories burned, 18,025 steps of which 12,494 were aerobic

Day 3- Saturday, May 1st: 198.4 lbs (I figured the pain must weigh AT LEAST 5lbs, right??) 9.45 miles walked, 963 calories burned, 11,066 steps of which 6,636 were aerobic.

Day 4- Sunday, May 2nd: 10.12 miles walked, 1120 calories burned, 17,824 steps of which 15,442 were aerobic

Day 5- Monday, May 3rd: 199.2 lbs (the scale and I had it out 2 days prior and if I got my translation correct 199.2 is scale for "fuck you, fatty!", I assured her the frozen pizza meant nothing to me but she wasn't having it...needless to say we are no longer on speaking terms) 8.68 miles walked, 882 calories burned, 15,285 steps of which 5106 were aerobic

Day 6- Tuesday, May 4th: this was NOT a good day!  I figured since the scale had accused me of cheating I would just have an outright fast food orgy and, I am embarrassed to say, I was quite bad....I will admit to you that on this day I ate 2 $1 menu chicken sandwiches from Burger King, a dbl. cheeseburger from BK, 2 McDoubles and an apple pie from McDonald's...but hey, I DID order the DIET soda! I walked a pathetic 1.68 miles this day and I'm sure most of that was inside Wal-Mart looking for tin foil and fly paper.....tail between my legs ;(

Day 7- Wednesday, May 5th: Determined to atone for my gross overeating and lack of walking I hit a personal all time best of just over 11 miles! (however, I wrote down my stats early so as not to forget, so I will be listing the official numbers written)  10.7 miles walked, 1095 calories burned, 18,877 steps of which 14,472 were aerobic

Weekly Totals:

Miles Walked: 57.74 (I was really hoping to have hit @ least 60 but I will be happy with this number as it's the best I have ever done and I'm proud of that)

Calories Burned: 5615 (this might about cover my menu from Tuesday....ugh!)
