Busy, busy, but not bad

Well I have been out of town a couple of weekends and have not lost any weight the last two weeks, I have not gained, but at this point staying the same is not really the goal. I have been working out in the weight room two days a week and actually ran once last week. I am currently just trying to get everything I have to get done taken care of and running or biking or swimming is a luxery. My main goal is to weigh Monday with some weight lost and to have done a good job with dicipline over the weekend. That has been a key phrase lately when I want to eat something I should not, I ask myslef if I really have no dicipline and usually I can answer myslef (which they say is a sign of mental illness) with an affrmitive and make a good eating choice. I am going to have to start running on a consistant basis again soon, but I am taking a class a Spanish class everyday at 8 in the monring and my afternoons are always busy, so in order to run I may start trying to get at it around 5:30 or so in the monrings a couple of days a week. I feel that I am on track and the journey is still very much on the right road, I am just afraid that I am going to have to buy Debbie a CD very soon becasue she is kicking my butt at the race to lose 30 pounds.

DOWN 6

It has been a great week and I have eaten well and worked out and I am seeing it pay off in the weight loss for the week. It is amazing how eating less and exercising causes one to lose weight. Now the challenge is to string two weeks together of doing the right things. The weekend are always a challenge and sometimes after a big week like this I feel like I deserve to indulge a little on the weekend and end up gaining back a majority of my loss during the week. But I am going to do my best to actually lose weight over the weekend, I will let you know how it goes Monday.

Finally, Good News to Report

I had a really good week last week and this week (all one day of it) is going well on the eating and working out. I am just trying to make it one day at a time and let one good day build on the next. After the marathon I got out of the habit of eating well and excercising and it is harder than one would think to just jump back in.

Thanks for the all the support. I am hoping to get back down to my lowest before we go sking in March.
