Unfortunately, as much as I got done on the errands/life stuff, I failed on the healthy eating side. I did get in a 3k run on the treadmill and a 45 min walk outside at Crawford Lake which was awesome because although it was cold and very, very icy - it was glorious to be outside in the sunshine.
Wednesday will be my Week 1 weigh in for the Spring Chick Challenge and I had a sneak peak yesterday and let's say it was a wake up call to get my $hit together and start rocking this weight loss thing again. I have pretty much steadily (and thankfully very slowly) gained weight since July. A combination of reasons/causes but none of them are insurmountable with more work and effort. I am hoping by Wednesday at my WW meeting I will see a slightly better number than I did yesterday.
I have all my food packed for tomorrow at work, my bathing suit and stuff packed to go to Aquafit at 8pm tomorrow and my running shoes packed to go for a walk at lunch. I need more sunshine in the day to keep me sane. I leave for work when its dark and I come home when its dark, if I don't get out at lunch I don't see daylight at all because my area of the office is in the middle of the tower so there aren't any windows within in sight and if I walk past a window, there isn't a lot of light because of condos directly across from us. It amazed me today how much being out in the sunshine improved my outlook - and cured a nagging headache I've had for days.
Planning ahead is key for success and it sounds like you've made a great plan for tomorrow. I'm here to support you. You can rock this SCC:)
ReplyDeleteA fellow Hamiltonian:) I'm actually a Torontonian but moved here in 2002 and I'm never going back. Except tomorrow for work of course! Good to know that positive support is so close by:)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to go out and get some sunshine in the afternoon...I rarely leave my desk to go outside.
ReplyDeleteCarborexia is a feeling of not wanting to eat carbs.
