Wow! 300 days! I'm calling yesterday quite a triumph. The LAST thing on earth that I wanted to do was to work out--and when it came time to do it I realized that I hadn't left my sweats here at work and only had a t-shirt. No matter. I wore the T-shirt, dress pants and sneakers (sexy!) and went and worked out anyway. I'm having trouble with my knees and am a little worried so I'm taking today off running-wise, although I still walked to work. I was also severely tempted food-wise last night. It was one of those hungry days where no matter what I ate it just wasn't enough. All I wanted was a huge calzone from the pie. Instead, I thought about it and decided that if I went home and made the jam-filled muffins (153 cal) I had planned to make earlier in the week--that I could eat a dinner within calories as long as I had a muffin and hotchocolate to look forward to after doing RS visists. That's what I did and I'm pretty proud of myself.
On the downside, my weight is up up up this morning. a scary 189. Darn it! darn it! darn it! Is it muscle? Is it water? ( I HAVE been drinking like crazy) or is it simply that 2000 calories is simply too many per day to allow me to lose weight? Sigh. I'll see what Friday brings--if it's bad news then I'll have to accept reality I guess and try weight watchers again. Maybe I'll have more success--at the moment I'm tired of dragging my feet. I just want to get the weight loss over with--which in theory I could do pretty quickly if I would just stick to the plan. But I'm always hungry, bored and empty on the plan. Ok, that's not quite true--it only FEELS true because I can't seem to switch my focus away from all the things I'm passing up.
