Forgot to journal, but keeping up with the exercise somewhat. Now... to get the food back in line. Thought all the 'crap' food was out of here - nope.. found some white chocolate covered pretzel sticks with mini m & m's on them. Sigh. I can resist anything but temptation.
But let's see. I worked out on the 9th, walked to the grocery store on the 11th and counted that as my exercise. It was only just over 2 miles there and back, so not a lot of exercise, but I consciously tried to stretch my leg muscles as I walked and thru in some butt clenches, too. :D Yesterday I did one of Shaun T's dance workouts. Maybe 30 min. of it. Today I will do something else. I want to mix up my workouts and avoid doing the same DVD more than once or twice per week. I did weigh myself the other day - didn't record it here, though, but it was 130.8. About what I figured, maybe even a pound less than I estimated. I won't weigh myself again for close to a week. That water weight my muscles seem to hold on to when I begin working out again really throw me for a loop. I mean, I know (in my head) that's what it is, but it messes with my emotions when it goes up as I work out and begin to eat right again. So that'll wait. Hell, I went weeks without weighing myself anyway - what's one more?
Cold here right now. Last night it was 24 degrees - pretty chilly for the low desert. Maybe we can get a hike in tomorrow! My husband had to work this "morning"... put in quotes because he claims he'll leave by noon. Uh... after 25 yrs with him, I'm not putting the house on that one! lol But I hope he does since he has to fix my Jimmy. I drive an old '96 (I think) GMC Jimmy and think the starter went out. I hope that's all it is so he can get it fixed today. Even when I have no where to be, I hate the feeling of being "stuck" at home. Especially when I'm trying to get back into eating right.
I'm feeling pretty bummed out today and tomorrow my friends are leaving town for several months. I really do need to get into some kind of classes or something. I know just getting back to the daily routine of checking on here, working out and planning healthier meals does help, but we all need more than that.
Well.. guess that's all for now. Hope it's a wonderful and healthy day for us all.
