The worst part about being sick this past weekend wasn't just that I couldn't work out, but that I couldn't run either. I had to go a full week without running, and this was after having made great progress last week with my first three runs. Each day that passed made me feel like I was losing some of the determination I needed to keep running. I gave myself two days of working out before adding a run back into my mix. I really didn't know how the run would go this evening, but I was determined to get back out there and try to regain the momentum I had last week. It honestly felt like I didn't miss a day. The first lap was slower than my time was last week, but my overall time was still right in step with last weeks runs. The best part is that I didn't feel bad at all while running. In fact, I told Bekah I felt really good. I'm glad I was able to get out and run tonight.
I have another weigh in tomorrow morning. To be honest I really don't know what to expect. I'm not sure if I'll be up or down. I know I'm a broken record when it comes to the night before a weigh in. I haven't eaten terribly this week, but losing Friday through Sunday workouts really has me unsure. I guess I'll need to be sure to get a good nights rest, and pray for the best. As always, whatever the scale reads in the morning, I'm still losing my butter half.
My calorie intake today was good until dinner. Bekah made some of the best roasted potatoes. They were small red potatoes, and they were absolutely delicious, but I had way too many. My workout this morning went really great, and as I mentioned above, I was able to get my first run in since last Wednesday.
