At first it’s awesome and great and you’re completely on board and up for anything. This time you are going to go the distance, you just KNOW it. This time is different.
Eventually you get into a comfortable pattern, and that feels pretty good too. You don’t need to bust your ass everyday…
Start Weight: 196.0 Last Week: 188.8 CW: 189.8 This Week: +1 Overall So Far: -7.2 -6.2
It’s shark week, my fingers along with everything else is bloated. And let’s be honest, it’s not any secret that I wasn’t working out with my sprain and Thursday-Saturday were just terrible & excessive. I didn’t let it get me down, and even beer drinking Football Sunday was pretty within the realm.
Monday was spot on. Tuesday was better.
Today is a long ass day, but it’s going to be great. Because I said so.
Wait, you’re supposed to take the picture before you devoure your dinner? my bad…
BLT (on wheat, with 1T light mayo) (and lots of super fresh lettuce). Pan “fried” sweet potato fries seasoned with S&P, garlic, roasted red pepper, & cumin.

Actually under my points for the day? no idea on calorie intake though, days like this make me worry that I don’t hit a reasonable minimum. 9 point foods include lettuce, & veggies for giant lunch salad, celery snack, & late night apple. Maybe that’s enough to make up the difference? Anyway, a low day certainly can’t hurt after last week anyway.

Movement: Zumba. Only 30 min. Late leaving work = late to class. Still fun.
——
Looking ahead: Looong day tomorrow. Early meetings, then late event. Thinking about Subway for lunch, been months since I had it. sometime back in colorado.
speaking of colorado, i’ll be there in 2 short weeks! cannot wait.
Had a bit of a fail before lunch, but not letting it ruin or dictate my day or week. Just ate later, waited until I was hungry again, trying to let me dictate a little. On top of it, my body was just a mess, with certain things and all. Worse than it has been for a number of months, felt naseous for a while, but I had to power through…
Stuck with my lunch (the bread got a little soggy from last night…) with a side of quinoa & green gian for one broccoli & cheese:
Zumba was fun & interesting tonight. It was a younger guy teaching his 4th class ever. It was fun, seeing how excited he was, and all his energy as a new teacher.
An excellent night capped off with this:
Giant salad topped with veggies galor, 1/4oz goat cheese, 1oz avocado, & italian flounder.
Woke up initially at 915, same time as spin. And by woke up, I mean I barely saw the time before I fell back asleep.
Too optimistic for working 10a-2a yesterday?
But knowing this, when I finally woke up, I feel like I gained 20 lbs overnight.
Also, I want the biggest salad. With lettuce and spinach and cucumber and bell pepper and maybe some fruit or grilled chicken?
Would it be weird to bring my own dressing to wherever we’re watching the game today? It’ll be my little secret? I don’t think I can handle even just dipping my fork in really oily or really creamy dressings today….
so I sprained my wrist on Saturday. I knew it hurt leaving work, but I was icing it and waiting for it to go away. Then in Zumba on Tuesday, it hurt, bad. I finished the class skipping most arm movements and just clutching it with my left hand.
I haven’t worked out (except for some minimal weight & little stuff at home) since then.
Then between a rearranging party Wednesday and hockey game/night out last night, I’ve drank away all my weekly points… so.. yeah :)
And it’s football Sunday tomorrow…
But it’s Monster Trucks alllllll day at work today and I made lunch, dinner, & a snack for today and input everything in to WW and I have 1 point left.
