This girl has finally got her groove back! Thank you sweet baby Jesus! The past few weeks have been just kinda blah - I was eating like a hormonal teenager and living the couch potato life. Maybe it's the dawning of Spring weather or something just clicked again but I'm feelings pretty great.
I have to be honest, I was pretty down in the dumps lately which happens to me on occasion. Anyone else experience this? I just have little cycles of not feeling like myself - they come and go, maybe they last a few days or maybe a few weeks but eventually I get over them. I hesitate to say "depression" but that's what it feels like sometimes. Luck for me, I'm out of the funk and feeling much, much better.
Weigh in time!
Height: 5'8"
SW: 236.2
Last week: 208.5
This week: 207.6
Loss: -0.9
Total Loss: -28.6
BMI: 31.6
Small victories. I rebounded a bit from my water weight loss when I was sick so my loss is pretty small this week.
In other news, long run last night. It was a 50 minute "fall back" run and my first club run in THREE weeks - exams, spring break, illness - all the excuses. So I was able to get 4.7 miles in which were slightly painful and not at all enjoyable. However, in order to catch up in my training I need to bust out 7-8 miles this weekend. Wish me luck. I'm scared.
Remember my Turkey meatloaf(s)? I think I've perfected the recipe. Holy delicious - these are pure perfection! Paired them with some roasted squash, zucchini, and potatoes (plus topped with tomato sauce).
Now for something completely new!
Thanks to my dear friend, Marguerite, I found out about a FREE fitness movement called November Project! It started in Boston and now has expanded to 15 cities across the country including my dear home of Indianapolis! This morning (at 6:25 am) was my first time and I had a blast (well...I felt great afterwards. It was pretty hard!). Everyone is super nice and encouraging and people of all fitness levels are welcome!
I will have more updates about NP soon! It's definitely something I'm going to incorporate in my week - the opportunity to meet new people with similar interests that ARE NOT medical students is so refreshing - "real" people? WHAAAA
Killer burn followed by a much deserved breakfast! Lentil and bean "taco" with yummy 'matoes and the always pleasing scrambled eggies. I'm happy and full 'til lunch!
Excuse me while I got foam roll my life away. Hope you all are enjoying the first hints of spring!
I cannot WAIT for Spring to get here. So over all the cold winter.
ReplyDeleteYou're going to rock your half!!! :)
Congrats on your loss!!! You are killing it!
ReplyDeleteExcellent loss this week! Great job!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely know what you mean about those moods, but great weight loss results!
ReplyDeleteI get those "moods" too. They completely suck. Glad you're out of it, and had a loss this week! Madison, WI has a November Project group too! I really want to check it out, but it's downtown Madison which I'm about 45 minutes away from...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out lovely!!!I'm so glad you enjoyed NP!! I have been going for 6 weeks now and the mornings just aren't as bad anymore. I really look forward to it! Your foam roller is going to become your best friend! I just bought "the stick" last weekend and it is assassinating. So painful but so good. Love ya!
