Some Ups AND Downs

Well after J left I went for a weigh in, and sadly I was up ..... 2 lbs! I have to work my butt off to loose those 2 lbs so I thought after what lead me to failure. Eating off program, eating snacks (chips, popcorn, etc.) late at night, drinking beer or baileys, hmmm, was it worth it? I am now 5.5 lbs from where I should be when I was always AHEAD of plan. :(

BUT instead of getting completely discouraged and frustrated (although I am in myself and my decisions), I decided to get right back on the wagon and stop the madness. Weighed in today and was down a lb. Not a huge loss, but any loss is better than no loss and is DEFINITELY better than a gain, so I'm happy.

Today I spent in the city. I had little things to get here and there, and all of a sudden it was 5pm! I hate when days just fly away from me, but I'm glad to get my errands all done in one day. Tomorrow will be a relaxing day at home, gym in the morning, play time outside in the afternoon. A win-win type of day for both the girls and I.

As for my other goals, well things are moving but slowly. I could not find the classes I wanted for spring session, so I have put that off until fall. Kind of disappointed, but also want it to work, so taking something just to take it doesn't make sense either. I'd rather take something I'm interested in.

For running, well I kind of fell off when J was home, so I'm going to try tomorrow to see if I need to restart from the beginning of the training program. I was not far enough along to believe my 2.5 weeks off did not affect my ability, but it's ok. I will keep working at it. Next time J is home, I will just have to be more disciplined. It is easy to make excuses when he is here, but not the next time. I learned my lesson!

Friday we have a fun surprise, but I'll post about that next week.

We had Peanut's party and I have a few pictures to post, but we'll have to wait on that until next week too. So for now, that's my update. :)
