Hey all, been away for a while with a quick pop in here and there! I just finished my final course in my Masters and I leave for CUBA in 9 days! So exciting!!!
I am a bit frustrated that I have not reached my CUBA goal and it doesn't appear as though I will.. For the past three weeks I have been in maintenance mode... I have been working out regularly (60-70 min. on elliptical 3-4 times a week)
, keeping a small eye on what I am eating, but have been allowing myself the treats here and there . I haven't been overly bad, like I used to be. Tis the season for there to be cake, cookies, and goodies on the staff room table, I have stayed away completely! It hasn't been easy though...
For the past few weeks I have maintained my weight between 182-186... not too happy about this but until my trip is over I just don't have the motivation!? Why is that?
Some mornings I get on the scale, or on the elliptical and I say how tired I am of all of this! Whereas other days I know that I am making healthy choices and I will live longer and healthier because of it! Does anyone else get tired of always worrying about those things???
I have Cuba to look forward to! But I am going bathing suit shopping on Friday! That won't be fun!? Although I have lost over 20 pounds and I need to be proud of that right!? I am 32 years old and this is the first time in my life that I have lost that much weight by making a conscious effort, rather than following a program (ie Jenny Craig)... so that does make me feel good! The new year will need to be my kick ass time!
I ramble on...
gotto go to work!
Have a great day everyone!
