Sushi For Dinner

In my quest to lose weight and get into shape I have become obsess with breaking through a wall I have been facing for more than a year now. I am down to 190 and can’t get over the hump. I just changed my routine by adding more time at the gym and watching my food consumption like a hawk. I don’t deprive myself of things, but I do make an effort to not give into every temptation.

Tonight I am going to attempt to make some sushi; I am looking at making Crab and Avocado Rolls. Six pieces is only 140 calories, I am so excited and can’t wait.

I also plan on hitting the gym and running 3-5 miles on the treadmill. I hope my legs can carry me the whole way. Lately I have been having a hard time running for anything longer than 3 miles on the treadmill so I have been mixing it up and using a cross trainer machine.
My gym has this great machine called the ARC. I have totally fallen head over heels for it. Most mornings I can hit it hard for 30 minutes at intervolves of increasing intensity. I can burn upwards of 400 cals in a short distance of 1.5 miles. It’s a great cardio workout.

I have also added some light weight training to my workouts. I have to do some more research on that, because my feeling is I am not doing it as effectively as I could.
