Yes, it’s true – I’ve gained 2lbs after a short vacation over the weekend to Portland with my man. It’s okay though – I’m just happy that I didn’t gain everything back.
May will be the month to really push things along. I work for a company that is owned by Whole Foods Market – and every year we get a chance to receive up to a 30% discount at all WFM stores. My biometric screening is on the 22nd of May – Therefore that gives me about 3 weeks to get back to focusing on my diet and exercise.
AND – I have a wedding to go to. A wedding where I will meet my boyfriends WHOLE ENTIRE FAMILY! I’d definitely like to look nice for that!
I haven’t strayed to far away from working out. I have been focusing on my endurance when it comes to running. I’m up to 4 miles at the moment and would really like to work up to a 1/2 marathon which is about 13.1 miles. A friend of mine wanted to do the ‘Rock n’ Roll 1/2 Marathon’ that is coming up in October. Good time to start now! My goal would be to beat my last 1/2 marathon time @ 2 hours and 35 minutes.
I did however stray from my diet and it is quite amazing that diet impacts EVERYTHING. I’m definitely sluggish, fatigued and my motivation is lacking. I don’t feel like working, or painting, or even just waking up in the morning. I feel like an addict when it comes to food – and everything healthy doesn’t sound as good as unhealthy choices. HOWEVER – I know all this, we all know this.. we all know that the choices you make – has consequences. I have been eating healthy and just having a few pieces of junk here and there, but it’s back to eating better. Sometimes it’s just not worth it, and sometimes you just want it in your mouth.
My weigh in:
April 29th = 133lbs
Gained 2lbs from previous month!
What a bummer!
Well, till next time!
