A little late: Weigh-In
>> Thursday, September 9, 2010
So I forgot to tell you about my weigh-in yesterday and it was partly because I didn't have a loss this week. I stayed the same which is not a bad thing. I did eat some not so healthy food over the Labor Day weekend so that may have been a factor in why the number on the scale didn't change. I also think it has a lot to do with the fact that I don't exercise regularly, if at all. I have a very full day that starts at 5am and ends at 10:30pm when I finally crash. By the time I get home (after an hour commute), get the girls ready for school and myself ready for work, check in with the couple that I'm helping plan their wedding, and give my hubby some attention its time for bed. So that's why I decided to start walking from the parking garage instead of catching the trolley and I walk up 7 flights of stairs and back down on my two ten minute breaks.
I will not let this get me down or sway me, I'm still going to keep trying!
Favorite meal last week (prepared by me!):
~Copycat On-the-Border Empanadas
(these are delish and I substituted everything for healthier options)
~Warm Mexican Corn Salad
~Homemade Re-fried Beans
~Total Calorie: Didn't count it :)~
~My favorite snack last week was: Nature Valley Fruit N' Nut Bars

~Exercise: Still not working out but talking the steps at work on my ten minute morning and ten minute afternoon break. I’m not taking the trolley from the parking garage anymore, I’m walking.
~Weight Loss: A BIG FAT 0 lbs.
~30.9 lbs. to go!
I keep trying to lose weight... but it keeps finding me! ~Author Unknown

Even though you didn't have a loss this time around it's good that you didn't gain any weight! It's so hard when there are those family gatherings or friend get-togethers -- I just always end up eating junk food.
It's great that you walk and take the stairs during the week. In addition to my regular workout plan I also try to incorporate one new thing in each week and then build on it. For example, I started a sit-ups/crunches routine so each day for a week I do 20 situps and 20 crunches and then increase by ten every week. It's something quick you can do while watching TV that helps you build your core muscles! :)
I agree, even though you didn't have a loss you are learning so many life long habits that will stick in the long run! You are on the right path! I'm so proud of you! :)
better than gaining which i did this week, boo hoo!!! you will do better next week & hopefully i will to!!!
Keep it up! Maintenance is good too, especially like you said on a holiday. Way to stay positive. :)
