Sorry. I can't get that GaGa song out of my head.
But I DO feel like I'm on the right track today. I woke up refreshed from a full night of sleep after I made the elliptical cry last night at the gym. I've been active every day since Thursday & I don't even know when my next rest day will be. I tried to talk myself into one the other day, but then asked myself, "Why??" I don't feel worn out, I feel energetic so what's the harm!
This last week has been a blast. Tuesday night was Ke$ha (my total pop guilty pleasure) with my buddy Kristen who came from Joplin to see her with me. The show was downright ridiculous, we danced & it was soooo good to see Kristen (we haven't really spent time together since her wedding in June). We ate out since she was in town & I was pretty apprehensive, to say the least. I did indulge a bit, but I tracked everything & still managed to stay within my calories for the day. I ate macaroni & cheese (my favoritest thing in the world) and mozzarella sticks and managed to not overdo it? Say whaaaaaat? SO proud of myself.
Wednesday was also fabulous. I took it easy during the day, gearing up to go see one of my absolute favorite bands, Eisley. (Side note : GO CHECK OUT THEIR NEW ALBUM! Its only $5 on amazon.com & they have the voices of angels. Gorgeous scorned girl music at its best.) Had to go it alone, but ended up loving it regardless & took home their new album on beautiful transparent red vinyl. After that it was out to meet up with friends for our weekly outing to Dollar Bin (aka $1 PBR night, the only night I indulge myself & have a beer or 2). I got so many compliments from friends I don't see as much & it warmed my heart to know they've taken notice.
The rest of the week honestly flew by with work & working out. Hit up the gym a few times, took an awesome 3.4 mile walk through the park I live next to (I only meant to do 2!), then rode my bike for the first time this year through the park & around my awesome neighborhood.
I honestly don't know how its Tuesday already, but that means its weigh-in time!
Previous weight : 262.5
Current weight. : 258.5
Loss of 4 lbs!
Total of 27.5 lbs lost. :)
Freaking A! I stepped on & off the scale like 6 times to make sure this was right. 4 lbs the week I started off not working out for 2 days, ate mac & cheese & mozzarella sticks? I guess that says something for moderation & being active every day! I've tracked really well this week & make good use of my allotted calories, so I earned it. I just sort of can't believe it!
I've been in a terrible mood the last few days (its my inner Oi Oi punk coming out) & wanted to yell at everyone/smash things. Took it out on the elliptical last night, so I feel better (still need to have a talk with someone avoiding me). Then the scale had to go & be all sweet. Today is a good day! Time to repeat my walk in the park now, cause its BEAUTIFUL outside & 53°! Viva la Spring!
