So I haven't posted anything for the past few days which has caused me to reflect....do I really have enough time to post something on here EVERY DAY? At first I thought it was a very reasonable thing to do.....get on for 5-10 minutes every day and post my progress. But then life happens, and I'm not always close to my computer to put it on here. In fact, I'm at lunch right now at work posting this. Not sure if it's against company policy or not...but then again, I'm not really their employee. (I'm a temp). So we'll see what happens. :)
Here's a synopsis of the past few days:
Didn't eat all healthy foods.
Ate some junk food (it was Easter...and I don't have the self-control to not eat chocolate or sugar)....something I need to control....but figure out how to change without feeling like I'm depriving myself.
Saturday breakfast was good: buckwheat pancakes, 1 egg, 2 vegetarian sausage links, orange juice.
Sunday breakfast was good too: oatmeal, whole wheat english muffin, orange juice.
Saturday I weighed myself....not good. I was at 176.2lbs. I know, I know...that's more than 2 lbs higher than last Saturday! But, given the food that I ate, didn't exercise, and am retaining water because of my monthly cycle....I know where that 2lbs is coming from.
This week's goal: eat 1 salad every day. Walk on treadmill/elliptical 30 min. 3x this week. I don't want to waste people's time with reading this if I'm not willing to make changes to give positive reinforcement for what they may be doing.
I need to find someone to help me workout. I don't like working out by myself and the only time my mom is able to go with me is at 6:00am!! I don't like working out that early....I'm a night owl and every minute I can sleep in the morning before my alarm goes off at 6:00am is precious. Any suggestions as to how I go about finding someone to workout with? Post an ad at the gym in the ladies locker room? Would that be weird? Post a comment and let me know!
Have a good, fit and fabulous day!
