Week 9 and 10 Weigh in

I have been the same weight the last two weeks which is just a pound up from the week before that. I have been so busy traveling, doing church stuff, and trying to get on top of my school work, that I have put little effort into eating right and working out. I do what I can, but I am pleased with only 1 pound gained in these two weeks. I am starting to work on the Couch to 5k again and doing better each workout when it comes to cardio. I just need to be more consistent and I'll be doing well. I have much work to get done, so I'm gonna keep this brief.

Week 8 Weigh In

I had a great week this week, almost undoing all the damage i did over New Years. I'm teaching a class in Dallas this week and it is tough to eat really healthy, so it may be a worse week this week, but maybe I can things back on track before I have to weigh in again on Monday. It is so hard to be healthy when I travel, but maybe that is the next step after I get good habits at home. I can't beat myself up about it, but I hope I can at least break even this week and then i will be in good shape going into next week. I'm happy about last week for now and will celebrate that for now and not worry about the next weigh in until it happens. 3 pounds down this week, and lots of chances to make good choices for the rest of the week!

Week 7 Weigh In

Well, the good news is that I am checking in pretty regularly, the bad news is that I gained 4 pounds these last 2 weeks. Being on vacation and only working out once accounted for this. I am going to the gym and counting calories again today so I am back on track. Vacation is over. It's time to get back on track. Since I gained it pretty quickly, I am hoping it comes back off pretty quickly. We shall see, I'm feeling ok about it, so I'm hoping a positive attitude helps!

Week 5 and 6 Weigh In

Well, between being a preacher around Christmas and going on vacation, I am only having one post for the last two weeks. I weighed in last week and lost a half a pound. I worked out some while on vacation, but that's not going to make a dent in what i consumed i'm afraid. We will see, but I am bracing myself for some bad news on Monday. Regardless, i will weigh-in and post and deal with whatever the scale says and move on from there. I am motivated and ready to continue this journey no matter what happened while on vacation. We will see in a couple of days...
