Curse you 5-9 pounds and bum knee

August 12th, 2014

I seem to have this ability to lose and gain the same 5-9 pounds over and over. It really sucks. Just when I finally get somewhere with the weight loss, it all comes back.

Also, last night I fell and hurt my knee pretty bad. Not so bad that I think it’s broken, but bad enough that I could run today and I won’t be able to do weights tomorrow.

Today really sucked.


and here is where it gets tough…

August 7th, 2014

It’s after 5 o’clock and I’ve been at work since 7:30 am and what I really want to do is go home, eat dinner and go to bed. Instead, I have to tough it out for two more hours because the run clinic doesn’t start until 6:00 pm.

The good news is I stepped on the scale to a 2 pound loss and finally got back down under my previous low. Awesome!


running

August 4th, 2014

So, I have been trying to become a “runner” all summer. I downloaded a couple of couch to 5k podcasts and have made a half-hearted effort to run three days a week, but today, I am signing up for a running group at the running store across from my office that will meet 3 nights a week for 14 weeks. I think this will do the trick because I tend to be more motivated when I have signed up for a class and paid money for it. It culminates in a 5k run.

Wish me luck!


Wow! July is over…

August 3rd, 2014

I didn’t realize it has been so long since I posted…. Probably because my diet is totally tanked. In July I gained 8-9 pounds and lost back 6-7. I put my Nutrisystem order on hold because I am so behind I had a whole months worth practically on the shelf. I also took a couple weeks off the gym. It pretty much sucked. I hope I am not the only failure out there because that would be just too much to bear.

Anyway, I came here to talk about the weekend.

What I did do:

1) worked on my scarf
2) shampooed my upstairs rugs

What I did not do:

1) ride my bile
2) swim at gym
3) any of my homework
4) paint my living room
5) any of the other items on my to-do list

Ho hum….
