Well, I'm eating too much. We've had houseguests, lots of them, and I've been using the occasion to cook and eat all my favorite things. With the results you'd expect: 213.4 this morning.
Sugar is tough, but the carbs are really killing me. I have got to dial it back in a biiiiig way with crackers, pretzels, etc. Should I just go cold turkey? Probably.
The workouts have been as consistent as they can be with the inconsistent schedule (we went to visit my family for four days last week, arrived home Sunday, more family members arrived Monday and left yesterday and we leave Saturday for a week in the Adirondacks). I've been shooting for five intense workouts a week, and I've managed to hit four or five for each of the last four weeks. Some of those workouts have been walk/runs that are part of my training program to get back into running. So that part is going great, at least.
I haven't been commenting, but I've been reading a lot of your blogs. Theresa and Jen, I sooooo feel your pain, and could have written your blog posts for you. But you did it so well, I don't need to!
Finally, I'm loving everyone's excitement about the upcoming BOOBs adventure in Chicago. So bummed I can't join you, but I know it will be a fabulously good time. Remember to thank your local planner: They're working HARD to make sure you love every minute.
Holy ciaos, Batman! Well, at least you aren't have a lonely, boring summer, haha.
ReplyDeleteCarbs are my worst enemy, love them so much, ugh. You are doing great on the working out part - amazing four or five each week is awesome! <3
