School started this week. That means I can go back to the gym (Unless I went early I could not go). We don't pay for my kids to go to the daycare other than my daughter. My older two boys are too old to enjoy it. We did not have a good experience with my third son as he couldn't handle free play easy. Our daughter loves it.
I really focused on my nutrition this week. Monday and Tuesday were hard to workout--schedules got awry with meeting my children's teachers, getting last minute things for the new school year and then we had a couple last hoorah's at Eddie Papa's for lunch and then Red Robin for dinner. For some reason I did not care what we had for dinner that day. I enjoyed a chocolate shake, a BBQ wrap and french fries.
Tuesday we started all over again.
I worked hard to not eat sugar either. Then Friday night came. I weighed myself Friday--190.5! I was so excited! I had four days left to melt half a pound! As I wanted to weight less than 190 before August was over. That would have meant a 7 pound weight loss. I would be happy with that! Then in September I could focus more on it.
Anyways, Friday we had a block party. In my neighborhood, there are many ethnicities--mostly Indian or Asian. I am one of three white families on my street. I have great neighbors--but I didn't want to offend them in not eating their food. So I tried it all. It was really good. I took very small helpings of it all. But it was still food I was not used to and made my stomach hurt for the next three hours.
Saturday started good and then we were at football games all day (my son had a football jamboree to start off football season). I packed stuff for everybody but me. All I really needed was water. But the kids were so thirsty, I knew they needed theirs over me. We got to Chili's and I just hammered down the chips con queso and the Spanish egg rolls. I was full by then but force fed myself the tacos. Shouldn't have done that--they weren't good because I made that choice. Usually I am more prepared--we were only gone for four and a half hours. However, when I didn't eat at my allotted three hours (I eat every three hours) it made me go into starvation mode. Next time--I will be more prepared.
I have two more days. Eating is on track today. Sundays I usually let it go. But because I did Friday night and Saturday night, I cannot afford tonight or I will be back where I started last week--and I want to make progress, not keep it even.
Here we go again.
Plans are: Eating week 3 of the month for turbo cycle.
Exercise: 1/2 marathon training program: Run m, w, f, and 8 miles Saturday.
TRX Tuesday and Thursday.
T-25 m, w, f.
It'll be a great week!
