What a day!!! So I signed up for another DietBet, because it is Jillian and how can I resist. This will be extremely motivating but could also be trouble. I am definitely motivated and excited for some added incentive to get my butt moving again. Even if it's not full go or with modified activities, BUT I have the tendency to overdo it. I'm trying to restrain myself and have promised myself I will not play volleyball until December, so i just need to make sure I take it slow with the exercise and concentrate all that extra energy on diet!
I had to weigh in today for the official weigh in of the new challenge. My weight confuses me so much!! Since the weigh in for the Hannah and Oliva challenge, a week ago, I have lost 7.5lbs. I honestly could not have lost this much weight and assume my body was just freaking out with all the cruddy food, lack of movement, and meds/surgery??? I have done really great though this last week with food and have been drinking tons and tons of water. So I'm hoping my body will mellow out a lil on all the weight fluctuation.
On a none weight loss subject. Work was less than stellar and one of my coworkers was particularly hurtful. Not going to lie it bummed me out but lucky for me my boss and good friend just started bringing her 6 month old puppy in to work, and it's impossible to stay down with a cute ball of fur within petting distance all day. I usually sulk with something sweet and delicious but decided to take the very unSara route and go for some retail therapy. I normally hate shopping with a passion but I wanted to pick up Jilian's 30 day Shred and if there's shopping I like it is the kind that starts in a sporting goods store. (Don't worry i don't plan on doing the video now, but i'm going to watch it tonight and see if there is ab, upper body, or low impact things that would be doable. And look at me turning my none weight loss subject back to excercise!). After the Sports Authority stop I ended up at Nordstrom Rack which is next door and bought my first ever pair of boots and a purse that will be perfect for knitting.
All in all i'm glad i didn't let my emotions drive me to a big chocolate chip cookie or brownie or slice of cheese cake heaven! lol Proud of how the eating went today and that I wasn't derailed by someone elses silliness. Looking forward to many healthy days in the coming month : )
