No Excuses

I figured I may as well post before the weigh in this week. Its BAD!

Not good at all!

As in I probably gained everything I lost in the last two weeks in one week kinda bad!

I could come up with a thousand and one excuses as to why I gained this week (I just started kettlebell class, last weekends halloween party, my friend "flo" is visiting, etc.). The truth is that I just need to stop eating. I don't mean starve myself. I LOVE food way too much to actually go through with that. What I really mean is the killer snacking that I do late at night. You know that time between dinner and bed where you sit and watch TV. Yes, I do have time between kettlebell class, running, and yoga to still sit on the couch and watch TV.

Snacking has been a problem for me for as long as I can remember. I could probably snack all day, like I did Saturday of the halloween party, and not think twice about it. I should probably invest some time and energy into planning out better snacks so when the snack monster stops in I can enjoy them.

I haven't really tracked anything I ate since the halloween party. I really need to get this tracking thing down so that I can lose the weight and maybe see some positive things come from my workouts.

You mean actually follow program? Yep that whole tracking thing!

I hope to report next week a week with less tracking!

Vacation

I started my vacation today! I know it has been a while since my last post. I don't know if I have been avoiding having to admit my weight gain last week or what. I said it, weight gain, as in 3 not a small gain but 3 lbs. Aweful! I can honestly say that I did not track at all last week. I started out better this week but still feel as if I'm not putting forth my best effort. I don't know why I insist on snacking and munching on everything in site!

I did have a great run on Sunday. I found that I run much better in the morning that later in the evening. I assume that it's because I have more energy in the morning. Glad that the 5K is Saturday morning. I just hope that our softball team doesn't get the 9:00 AM game so I'm not running a 5K and then straight to the softball game. I will be late if it is at 9:00 AM because the 5K starts at 8:30 AM and it takes me at least 33 minutes to run it. (I say 33 because that was my time at my last 5K)

I'll try and keep with it and post my wordless Wednesday along with my Weekly Weigh In.

Weekly Weigh In

Sorry for the quick post, it's getting late and I have a garage sale to run the next few days.

Weight Loss: 0

I stayed the same! I should be thankful for that since I have indulged a little last weekend. We checked out the new local bar and we had a birthday party. I can't pass up the cake!

Last week's challenge was to track for 3 days. I DID! So, I guess this is the part where I take on the challenge again but add a day? I'm going to give it a try. We'll see how it goes!
