I'm so good at talking the talk. Do you remember my whole assing it post? The 50hrs I've committed to working out? It all sounds great in my head, but my booty feels great sitting in my chair.
1) I was stressed, and still getting used to not being. Last week was do my homework early, get my nails done, email my professor, check flight status, create presentation, pack for 5 days in Michigan. Now I'm sitting at home feeling stressed but having nothing to stress over. Like " I should be doing homework.......oh wait I don't have any" I did yoga yesterday to calm me down, it worked but now I'm SORE!
2) Baby it's cold outside. I just want yummy warm creamy stuff. I think I went a bit overboard this weekend with dairy products so this week I'm trying to be super strict dairy free. Hopefully my tummy will feel better and the cravings will go away. I also started on my holiday recipe search, unfortunately I have to scroll over all the YUMMY BAD stuff first.
3) I've just felt blah. I didn't want to post, didn't want to go to the gym, didn't want to fix anything for meals that took longer than 30secs. [which 30sec meals make me feel more blah] Since it snowed I'm walking to school. I make pulled pork yesterday, did yoga, and cleaned my room. It's amazing how less chaotic life seems when my room doesn't have laundry and junk piles closing in on me.
AND NOW......................WWI
Today's Weight: 203.5
Total loss: 18.5
Weekly loss: +3.5
I didn't post last week because I thought it's just stress weight an will go away soon. If only it would actually do that. "Oh Erica you're back to eating and exercising, lets just go down to that weight you were 3 weeks ago" So 4 weeks ago I was 198, then 200, then an unreported 204, then back from vacation Monday at 206, and today 203.5. So I guess it's better than it could've been. But I also feel like I let onederland slip out of my fingers :(
So to iterate mostly to myself:
We are WHOLE assing it!
We are working out whenever we can!
We are making healthy meals and not just eating granola bars.
We WILL be at 180 by New Years!
keeping repeating it to yourself:

I've done that I don't know how many times.. I see 199 on the scale and sabotage myself, all the way up to 250. Onederland, here we come- for good this time!
ReplyDeletecongrats!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of having a workout goal in terms of hours rather than miles. I may borrow that from you in December! :)
