End of Week 1 Recap/Start of Week 2

I always start out with the best of intentions. I seriously thought I'd blog almost everyday, but I didn't write even once.


Last week was hard. It was super grey, cloudy and rainy all week, which just affects me so negatively. I was in a serious funk. I didn't have the motivation to exercise (only 1 class all week!) or to eat anything healthy (I did try on this one!).


Then on Friday, I got some amazing news, my fiance's visa has been approved! AKA there will be a wedding and I need to look amazingggggg! He'll hopefully be here in Oct/Nov! :)


So week 1 passed, and I lose 0.0lbs. 


Week 2 started off great on Monday.


I planned, tracked and worked out. 


Tuesday morning started out great:


planned, tracked, looked up the resturant where I was going for dinner.


Thennnnn, I added drinks (tooo many) and snacks on a boat ride, and some delicious creamy food (courtesy of my bosses...thanks guys!). It was an overall great evening out with coworkers and bosses to celebrate a big month for us in August, but it reaked havoc on my diet.


I also didn't work out on Tuesday. I thought about getting up for 5:30am spinning, does that count?


This morning, I was craving grease. And my coworker came to the rescue with Mickey D's breakfast. Not so waist friendly either. And I remembered why I never get Mickey D's. 


After that, I got a nice little salad and hummus for lunch and then had a lean pocket for dinner, with a popsicle for dessert.


Not the best day overall, but a good start after last night.


Today I had a lot of stress/frustrations/anger/etc from my work day (lonnng story!), so it really pushed me in the gym tonight.


I recommitted to Couch 2 5K and I did week 1, day 2 tonight! Only 1 more day of week 1, which will be Friday after work.


I was doing really good at running/jogging/walking, but this week has been tough. I know it takes time, but I'd really like to get where I was before....sooner rather then later. 


So, thats the update for tonight. Tomorrow I want to go to the gym, and I'll probably take a class or do some strength training & abs. Maybe both. Definitely not nothing.
