Awesome birthday weekend Juni!! I can tell it was a lot of fun and worth it for sure!! You will get right back I know it - one day at a time remember. A run is a good way to start! I'm so jealous of you moving to NY - that is going to be such a great place to get some motivation to drop some pounds!
What a nice birthday surprise your hunnie gave you showing up - that must have made the weekend!! I bet you got to burn some calories too that you weren't planning on! I bet because your so busy with work and travelling those extra calories you consumed during the weekend have already lost themselves! Good to hear you are doing good and your positivity about jumping right back in is inspiring! Keep it up - I see good things ahead for you this year!!
Thanks Lisa. I hope you're right. I'll know tomorrow when I jump on scale. If I've gained, I'm not gonna cry over it. I'll just work harder to lose it all. Travelling is tricky-- i tend to not really have a sense of what i am eating when I am travelling (especially a stressful trip like this one where i constantly have to be on top of things). Also, when I am not eating what I have not prepared, it tend to lose sight of things. Usually you eat certain foods, prepared in a certain way- i have three different ways i cook zucchini (they are all simple). but i had zucchini today and i don't really know how it was cooked (it was yummy, but i'm unable to estimate how many calories it contained, what was added- what oil it was cooked with etc. i guess i can't really go wrong with zucchini but you get my drift?
It has been fantastic to have hunnie with me. Oh and I'm burning calories alright with him around...
Hey Juni! Sounds like a great birthday!! On my 29 I ate a subway sandwich alone lol!!! Hubby was at work! You are so right not to regret it, just get back to your routine and you will keep loosing! I want to visit NY so bad!!! hubby and I keep saying we will do it but we never get around to it I want to go in the falls cause I hear that is the best time! It must be fun to have your hunny with you at the conference!
Really looking forward to moving to NY too. You should visit- spring/fall are the best times.
I'm glad you had a good time on your birthday weekend! Sounds like it was a lot of fun. And the most important part is not feeling bad about it which you don't feel bad so now moving forward, let's kick it into high gear! Have a great day Juni!

Thanks sarah. I am trying to control some of the damage I did. If I have a good week this week, I think I should be able to get back. Although, it only takes one good day to get back on the groove, doesn't it?
Aw man! I missed your birthday! HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY JUNI!!! I'm so glad it was a great one for you. I'm sure living in NY you will get plenty of exercise. When I visit NY, I've learned that you have to wear good shoes! I love it though!
Hey, no worries about missing birhthday. Thank you so much for your wishes. I'm packing plenty of good shoes (and I loooooooooooove walking).
So yesterday, I couldn't go for a run like I planned. I had seen a small park, which I thought would be perfect for runs (it is not as hot at Delhi here), but the small park was sooooo crowded, i could barely walk, much less run. So walked for about 30 mins and came back grumpy, yet really really tired.
Today, however, i woke up really early 5AM (yes yes yes! so proud of myself) and ran for 50 mins and it was great. I ran on the road, which I was a little concerned about, but it was alright. I was doing a lot of inclines and was feeling really good. I have a feeling my thighs and butt will be very sore from all the inclines i ran. Exciting!!
Food has been good too. I am trying to the healthiest choices.
TUESDAY:
B: Cooked mung beans
S: string beans and two cups of tea with creme
L: 1/2 cup Tabbouleh with spinach and 1/2 cup of split pea soup
S: small chicken bbq sandwich, another cup of tea with creme
D: a cup of cherries and lots of cucumber
I have been avoiding the confrence tea- cakes, cookies was just having tea when i realize they use a really heavy creme. So on Wednesday, I decided to be more careful.
WEDNESDAY
B: small pancake
S: cucumbers, string beans and pickled radish (i sneaked into the kitchen and got these while the others hovered around cookies and coffee in the lobby)
L: 1/2 cup rice with chicken
S: zucchini with rice-cakes, plain yogurt
D: 1 slice of cheese pizza, two slices of pesto pizza. (not the best choice, but i was craving some carbs).
Skipped dessert- there was yummy-looking molten chocolate cake. I had a piece of dark chocolate with hunnie in bed.
Woke up at 5am and ran (i think i feel much better running in the mornings)
Didn't have any tea. Got more water in than Tueday- a gallon.
Hope everyone is doing wonderfully as well.
Happy Birthday Juni!!!
