Week 7 and 8
Wow.....where does the time go. I somehow missed a week in my Blog and I just arrived back from my weigh-in this week.
No stellar results to report these last two weeks. I lost 1 pound in each of the weeks for a total weight loss of 2 pounds in 2 weeks. At least going in the right direction. Last week was a challenge as we went on a camping trip over the long weekend. Tough to stick to the diet on a camping trip especially when there is an ice cream store nearby. I did OK though as I limited myself to one ice cream for the entire weekend. It was GOOD !!!
I am almost finished my study leave for the summer as I write my big exam next week then I am back to work. I tend to like to eat when I am studying because I get bored and its a way to relieve stress for me. I have been doing well so far as when I feel the need to eat I just grab a glass of water.
I need to refocus on the diet though. I will be home for the next while so I can get back into a routine. I am also looking ahead as I will be done studying for a long time. I haven't been able to say that for the last 6 years. So I am going to focus on exercise when I start back at work. I have drafted a schedule to start a running program so that I can do a half marathon by the end of March 2007. Big goal but I am feeling more energetic and confident that I can do this.
