This week sucked, weight loss wise. Not only have I not lost weight, I've gained! I know what I did wrong. So I know why it's this way, but I'm still not happy about it. I've been eating like I'm starving. I keep trying to shove things in my mouth that I shouldn't be. On top of that, I've been drawing out my eating. Somewhere inside, I keep feeling like I'm not eating enough, so when I get full, I stop for a few minutes, then go eat some more. Grr. WTF is wrong with me?
Then, in addition to the bad eating, I also went out drinking Saturday. Which is so not good. Especially since I was drinking White Russians, which have cream or half-n-half in them. So talk about liquid calories! I ate a really greasy deep fried onion ring while I was there too. Mmmm tasty.
On the exercise front I did pretty good last week. If it hadn't been for the food, I would have probably lost a few pounds. I did the elliptical twice, and went running once, and the rest of the week I walked. Even on my day off!!
About the run... that was great. I got a knee brace, because the last couple times I ran I had trouble with it because my knee, and leg started hurting so bad I was limping home. Well, the knee brace worked wonders. It didn't hurt at all, except for the general soreness you get all over from running. Now that my right knee doesn't hurt so much, I'm finding that my left knee is on it's way out too. lol - so I'm gonna have to get a second one, and I'll be running with two braces on. I did 8 out of 9 run segments by the way! Go me! So I'm officially starting week one of the Couch to 5k. I'll be doing "Day 2" on Wednesday. I was going to do it today, but I forgot to bring my knee brace with me. Maybe if I have time, I'll do it after work. Maybe. Don't count on it though.
So, back to the weight talk... I'm back up to 222 lbs. which isn't a horrible amount back on, but it negates this whole week. Unless on my official day I'm down like 3 pounds, then I can't even count this week for loss.
Current weight: 222lbs.
