Current Weight: 194.4 (up 1.4 lb)
So...I skipped a few weeks there...or six. My last weigh-in post was Week 20, so I'm calling this Week 21 and ignoring all the junk I ate in the last month and a half. If only I could ignore the pounds I gained, too. To recap, last time I tracked my weight on WW, I was 191, which means I've actually gain 3.4 pounds instead of just the 1.4. I suck at this.
I've taking up running, though. I think I can officially say that now since I got up this morning at 5 AM and went for a run before work, which makes that my third attempt at running. It's going better every time. The dog was still annoying, but she needed the run, too. I jogged for longer spurts, and my hips don't hurt as much today. If I consciously put more weight on my left leg, it seems to help.
I also had a chat with my sis-in-law (an avid marathoner) this weekend, and she encouraged me to get running shoes, too. She told me about a running store that should be walking distance from work, and my friend Pete also commented in the last post about a store on my way home from work. So I'm set there. I just have to go.
So after all my hard work, I undid all of it by going to Dunkin Donuts this morning and buying a couple doughnuts. What? I needed more K-Cups! I really, really suck at this.
Hang in there! I am a WW lifetimer and have been trying to maintain over the last year (over 2 years total on the program)... U fall off, but just dust yourself off and keep at it! U CAN DO IT!
ReplyDeleteI've recently taken up running, too! I'm not so great at it just yet, but I'm enjoying it more than I expected. My goal is a 5K by the end of summer. And trust me, running shoes will change your life!!
ReplyDeleteI just recently gained back some pounds after losing them and it's frutrating but you have to just stay positive and keep working. I hope you get a handle on the running.
