well, i am 5 FP in the hole for the week. i got all of my water, veggies, vitamin, and milks. i wasn't totally balls out because i felt crappy and didn't earn any APs. it was a MAJOR improvement over the last few days though.
omg. crazy few days. i finished the week that ended on friday, sept 10 with .5 FP left. by the end of 9/13, i had 1 FP left for the week that just began on sept 11. i had planned for the 10 point slice of cheesecake and 15 point fast food meal, so i wasn't shocked or upset. i barely got in any exercise. we earned 4 APs for walking in total (over 2 days). it could have been so much worse. i sucked with my f/v, water, and milks though. i did manage to get in my vitamins every day. :) i guess we'll see how "bad" i really was when i go to my meeting on saturday.
ugh. i used way too many points today! at least i had the flex left for it. it could have been worse.
well, after earning all of those APs, i was pretty darn hungry. i finished the day by swapping 12.5 of my 16 APs. part of the points went toward a REAL cheeseburger that adam cooked on the grill. he used lean meat, so it could have been much worse points wise. :) YUM. i hadn't had a "real" cheeseburger in at least a month or two. it was absolutely 100% worth the points for it. :) i also felt a lot better after eating it (i felt really drained from the DDRing.
we went to both lanwerx and illusionz today. i played on 3 different machines today (max2, extreme, 4th plus solo). i passed 10 new songs. i have declared a moratorium on going for any new songs. i am going to spend the next few weeks working on improving my scores. anyway, i played for 90 minutes in total (40 on the max2 machine which is VERY busted), and the remaining 50 minutes mostly on 4th. i'm up to 202 of 398 songs passed. i'm pretty happy about that. i never ever thought i would get that far. :) i think that we are going to try to play on wednesday night (we leave for TX on thursday) because i don't know how much we will be able to play while we are out of town. i guess we'll see...
big shocker alert: we went to illusionz! anyway, i passed 18 new songs. adam also figured out that there was one that had passed but not recorded. i've started sorting my songs passed list by foot rating. i think that will be much easier for me to figure out what i need to do. i think that we may go to lanwerx tomorrow so that we can play on the max2 machine. we haven't been there in ages. anyway, i got 14 APs today. i think that we may try to go tomorrow and wednesday because i don't know how much we will be able to play this weekend (texas, remember?) ;) i looked up machine locations for that area. the closest machine to my grandparents' house is only about 2 miles away. that could be promising. i guess we'll see what our schedules are like there. i know that friday and sunday are out. we get in late thursday night, and we leave on monday. so, i guess that saturday is the only chance. oh well....
well, i finished the day with not having to use any FPs. i was able to swap out most of my APs for food. i'm glad that the day is over. i don't know if i am just a lot hungrier because of the amount of DDR that i am playing or what, but i was hungry!!
ugh. i feel like i ate 50 bazillion points. a huge part of it was the traditional post-weigh in breakfast at ruby's. that always winds up being a points fest. adam cooked some really good halibut for lunch after DDRing, and we had veggie burgers for dinner. i was totally balls out for the day. :) this is the start of week 2 of trying to use no more than half of my FPs. i don't know how that will work on thursday with airplane food and such, but i guess we will see.
12 new songs today. 5 of them were 8 footers. that was pretty cool. i played for 65 minutes. i would have liked to have played for longer, but i was just too tired. i earned 12 APs for the outing.
wow. i was down 1.8 lbs for a total of 40.2 gone! i didnt' think that i would hit the 40 lb mark today, so that was very cool. i am just glad that i am 2 lbs lower than where i wanted to be on labor day. very cool. i'm going to try to weigh in on tuesday or wednesday before the trip to texas.
i finished off my week with .5 of my target points left. i was balls out for another day. i also finished the week with 18.5 flex points left. with that, i made my goal of not using over half of my flexpoints! not such a bad week. i have a pretty good feeling that i will be down tomorrow.
so, i earned the 2 APs that are required for balls out. i earned them by DDRing. i played one song on heavy (and passed), one song on standard, and the rest of the 30 minutes on light. light seems sooooooooooooooooooo easy now. i remember how hard some of the light stuff was when i started. :) i've come a long way!
i swapped 7 of my 13 APs. i was great on the balls out challenge today too. i'm also doing very well with my plan to have at least half of my FPs left for the week. i hope that weigh in goes well on saturday.
today was a better DDR day. i passed 15 new songs. i have now passed all heavy/maniac songs with a 6 foot or lower rating on ultramix, max2 (PS2), max2 (arcade), and extreme! i earned 13 APs for the effort. i am happier with my progress today. unlike the other day, i even passed a new 8! yay me! off to bed soon now...
holy crap. i ate a ton of points today. i swapped out the 2APs that i earned, and i finished the day by also using 12 FP! OMG. not such a good day. i think that part of my challenge was in making sure that i got in all 3 milk servings. that was a bit more difficult, but now i have some ideas going forward. anyway, i made it through my first day of balls out....
well, i wanted to get my 2 required APs for the balls out challenge, so i played a very little bit of DDR. while i was playing, i passed 4 new songs. anyway, i really don't have much to report other than that. i fulfilled the requirement that i needed.
