So, I had one fantastic week! Lost five pounds. Then along came Halloween.
It was like an avalanche of mini-candy bars buried me. It was bad, very, very bad.
I gained those five pounds back.
Today, though, I am 100% committed to myself and my weight loss plan because I just found out that once again, I am flying to New York in December for the office Christmas party.
So I am deterrmined to use this as the impetus I need to get serious and get some weight off!
Today I ate a 'clean' diet. For breakfast, old-fashioned oatmeal. Lunch was a big salad at Souplantation. Dinner was green beans and some barbecued chicken breast. Snack tonight was a Granny Smith apple and some fat-free popcorn.
Earlier in the day, I laced up my sneakers and went on a two mile walk with my 9-year old daughter. I used the RunKeeper app on my iPhone. I loved having the feedback about our time, distance and speed.
I'm thinking I'll ride my exercise bike tomorrow, then on Wednesday, go to the YMCA to get a lesson in using the equipment there. (We joined recently but I haven't yet actually exercised there.)
Wish me luck! I'm going to try to lose as much as I can in the nearly six weeks I have before my trip to NYC!
