It's been a while hasn't it? Two years since I last logged and I've only gained a net of 6 pounds. I should be very grateful! I've gained some and I've lost some, I've had to push myself a lot to get where I am. There was a lot of emotional eating, weight gain, and essentially me not taking care of myself like I needed to. I think I hit 142ish again at one point. Now I'm getting back on track though. I don't really have a substantial goal or timeline in mind that I feel compelled to reach which has led to a lack in motivation somewhat. But here is a little weekly check in:
Food: I'm back home, and it's very easy to succumb to fast food, especially when it's just a call away. Sometimes it's hard to make good choices when I'm tired, even though I know there are good options. I haven't cooked anything this week besides some steamed broccoli (and that helped flush some things out of my system, lol). I also visited my boyfriend in California for part of the week, which meant a lot of delicious high-calorie foods! It wasn't so bad though.
Exercise: I walked a lot when I was in California, but the day I flew back sucked. I always move some at work with the after school program, but not enough to consider myself more than lightly active. I walked on Friday, which felt really good in the Fall weather, and I did Zumba on Saturday. Now that I've had time to recoup from Jet lag I can focus on getting back into the swing of things.
Goals for this week: Weight wise I just want to go down, hopefully another pound, but zig-zagging has become more common than I'd like. I'll be fighting that! I guess if I had to set a goal to hold on to, it would be to hit the 120s by December, so 5ish pounds in 6 weeks. So for this week, 1 lb.
I also want to make my lunch the night before for the whole week and have dinner prepared for at least 3 nights this week. Exercise-wise, if possible I want to be active for 3 days this week as well, and that can be Zumba or walking in the neighborhood, or going to the Y. We will see.
As always, wish me luck ;)
