Feb. 1st weigh-in - awful!😡 So mad at myself! This is the most I've ever weighed in my LIFE, and I don't like it one bit! Here's the frustrating thing, I've been strength training for over a year. Strength training was supposed to be the magic bullet for weight loss & body recomp, but it hasn't worked for me at all. (Note to self: stop believing in magic bullets!) I'd like to pretend that it's muscle gain, but I have one of those hand-held body fat analyzers and sadly, it isn't.😥

So I'm going back to cardio, specifically running. There are 2 5K races in March that I'm going to start training for 3 days/wk. Do some alternative cardio for 2 days/wk, there's my Treadclimber or maybe a dance class at the YMCA where I work. I'll still keep lifting weight, but probably cut that back to 2 days/wk. As for diet, well I do a fair amount of meal planning in vain hope that I won't have to track meals. Clearly not working in it's current form, so that's why I'm back. I'll still meal plan, but will look specifically for 400 calorie meals, and yes I will track them. Maybe I'll even track the snacks I'm consuming, LOL!

And here's my pledge for February: There's this really cute dress I saw online that I don't need that costs $100. IF I track at least 5 days/wk for the month of February, THEN I can buy the dress. This actually worked well with a long to-do list I have for this week, involving some expensive lip gloss😉 Okay, enough with the chit-chatting, time to get going - have a great Feb. 1st, everyone!

Went out for breakfast & had small blueberry pancakes, they were good but I need to cut down on that sort of thing. Having a low-cal protein shake right now, salad for lunch & a lower cal dinner this evening. I've been feeling somewhat paralyzed (figuratively) since returning from Hawaii, so today I made a to-do list for the week to try & get unstuck. Naturally it includes exercise, but I've also made a meal plan for the week. I totally suck at tracking, yes I know it works & I SHOULD do it but I'm still not crazy about it so there you are. Hoping to be down 3-4 lbs by the end of this week. Saturday is hubby's birthday & we're going out to lunch at his favorite steakhouse, so I shouldn't have to cook anything THAT day, LOL! Hope everybody has a great week & all your goals are met!

Got back from Hawaii last week & actually didn’t gain any weight. Didn’t lose any, either, but I’ll still call that a win. Still, I’m heavier than I’ve ever been, need to lose around 18 lbs. Hoping to get some weight lifting done today before work, but it’s cold & icy outside so we’ll see. Might end up doing dumbbells after I get home, but I WILL do something!

So, January 2nd - today I'm just trying to get back on some kind of regular schedule after the holidays. Like, getting out of bed a little earlier, maybe try to go to bed tonight earlier, etc. Today I feel particularly bloated. I don't normally drink alcohol but I did embibe quite a bit over the past couple of days, so that's probably part of the issue. I need to push water today for sure, & get in lots of cardio this week. Yeah, sweat it off!
