I did not even try to follow my calorie limit tonight. I know, I know, but it was our Valentine's Day celebration (because we were at Bible Study last night) and Bekah made delicious dinner and treats. I have started to give into the idea that I deserve to take it easy. What I mean is that I have a relaxed mindset in regards to what I am eating. But as I learned last month, I have to steadily follow my diet plan so that when injuries or bad weather happen, I won't bloat up from sugar and snacks. I don't want to rest on my laurels, but rather to attack my enemy first. My butter half is still fighting me. I won a major battle last year, but then casually walked back after the victory. I forgot that the war was still going on, and convinced myself that I deserved to take it easy. I'm done with that. I will change back into attack mode. I'm still in the fight, and I am going to lose my butter half.
My weigh in today wasn't what it should have been. I ate so much sugar and chicken wings this past week, that I am lucky to have had the positive result that I did. When I stepped onto the scale this morning, I was down 1 lb. This brings my total weight loss to 155 lbs., with a current weight on 211.2 lbs. I am so glad to be heading down, but I know it should have been another two to three pounds down. I wasted an opportunity this week, and I am ready to change. The only problem is that it is supposed to rain for the next week and a half, so my runs will be limited. I will have to make sure to spend time on the recumbent (maybe even some two-a-days) every day. Still I am grateful to be down this week, and I am motivated to keep losing.My eating today was really bad. Like off the charts bad. Thankfully it was an incredibly warm morning (65 in February?), and I ran a full 10K. It is the first time I've run six plus miles in a while, and it was rough. I'm so glad I did it though. One for the calorie burn on a day like today, but also because I won't have a chance to run that far for a while.
