Post-Ryan's Birthday/Valentine's Day

Weight: 249 (no change, -3 total)

I survived. For Ryan's birthday he wanted to go to Friendly's. We took a mid-afternoon trip there at 3:00 and that allowed me to use the meal as a lunch/dinner hybrid. I got a big cheeseburger, but coupled with my small breakfast, that allowed me plenty of room to have a piece if ice cream cake with him that evening. We really don't have much chocolate in the house right now, so I feel like I'm in good shape to navigate this week. We have two parties scheduled for this weekend, but both are pizza parties - they really shouldn't be any trouble. My goal will be to at least maintain this week, then really start to push to lose next week.

My exercise has been low this week. Ryan, Kathy, and I have been passing a cold back and forth and I just didn't have the energy. In fact, I took TWO naps over the weekend. I can't remember the last time I had even one nap. I have some work to do this evening, but tomorrow I am free and am planning on an evening trip to the gym. I'm actually kind of looking forward to it.

All in all I don't have much to report. Things are kind of slow right now. I'm not as focused as I need to be, but I am making more of an effort to at least be aware of how much I am eating. I've done a good job of hitting, and not surpassing my 2,000 calorie per-day goal. Tomorrow will make 4 months to the day until the Warrior Dash (and 7 weeks till the Phillies 5K). I feel like I have plenty of time, but I need to start increasing my efforts now.

Anne, if you are reading this, would you mind asking your trainer to shoot me an email? Thanks.

Next post Sunday.
