Yesterday was my birthday --- I went for a run and tried to eat healthy. Totally endulged with two martinis at my favorite restaurant! I'm officially 29. =/ Hopefully the sound of 2-9 grows on me!
Last week was a pretty awesome work out week for me. I got to my lowest in a very long time at 174,4.
That proves, if I work really hard, I can do this. The weekend, I let myself go a bit and I'm paying for it now.
Next week, I go back to work and I'm stressing a little about this already. Each year of my career, I've gained 10 lbs. It's my fifth year... and I will not be continuing that unhealthy pattern. Just thinking of my job immediately stresses me out. It's a fairly serious gig in a well to-do area, so you always have to watch your back. Plus, my colleagues aren't always the most supportive. And it ends up being not a fun place to be all the time. So, I will try my hardest to keep work at work --- and to keep things in a healthy perspective this year! And maybe in the future, I'll find a better fit somwhere else.
I'm starting to realize that this dietbet will take more than the normal exercise stuff. I have to commit myself fully to training and not only eating less, but eating healthier every meal of every day.
Next week I am meeting with a trainer from my gym, where hopefully he will tell my some other things I can do - in addition to boosting up my gym membership for access to more classes - since I tend to do better working out in class-like environments.
Trying to stay positive to reach my goal for the end of this month!
