1/7 122.8 My scale has been wonky but I’m also just feeling puffy and bloated from having Thai food two days in a row. My husband and I tried the new place in the center and got a couple of their staple resulting to two days of Thai food for either lunch or dinner. It was worth it though because I hadn’t had Thai in a while! I’m drinking lots of water and dandelion tea to help with the bloat/puffy feeling. Our first “real” snow storm of season is going on outside my window and it looks so pretty! I might not feel that way in March when it’s still snowing but I’ll happily take it now lol. I did a 45 minute heavy hills/hiit spin bike ride in leu of running this morning in the storm. Then I cooled down for another 15 minutes on the bike at an easier pace. It’s been a crazy work week, hence not posting yesterday but I’m glad today is a little quieter.
1/8 122.4 At least it went down right? I’ve had a super productive day getting things done around the house. I took down the Christmas ornaments and lights, went grocery shopping, made bread which came out better than last weeks, cleaned the aero garden before my new flowers arrive for it, put a load of laundry in the wash, have an empty sink, and a couple other things. For physical activity, I decided to give my body a full rest day today but I have at least 100 active calories on my garmin watch. I woke up with a ton of energy and was dressed an out of bed by 6 this morning. It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much energy, so I wanted to take advantage of it. Breakfast was cereal, lunch was a cheese and crackers with some fruit, a snack was a slice or two of my bread and dinner will be beef bulgogi with sauteed mushrooms, cabbage, and onions. My goal this week is to eat more vegetables during the day. So tomorrow I’m going to cut up some veggies that will be easy to munch on during the week.
1/9 120.6 That’s a better number and I feel it too. I felt less puffy/bloated this morning. I did a 30 minute spin bike ride and then my husband and I went for a walk around the local pond trail. Breakfast consisted of eggs with peppers and caramelized onion cheddar from Trader Joes, toast with my homemade bread, and an apple; lunch will be a mini cheese board for 1 and dinner will be cranberry bbq sauce turkey meatballs served over brown rice with a side of broccoli and left over cabbage from last night. I hope every had a good weekend!
1/10 119.8 Ran 6 miles this morning. Tested out my running YakTrax and they helped give me a bit more confidence with the sporadic icy spots. My run definitely would have been more sketchy without them. I also plan to do some sort of strength training on my lunch today. On the menu tonight will be short ribs with carrots, onions, fennel, kohlrabi, and the homemade bread from Saturday. This is going to be a somewhat long week for me with a potentially very tired husband who is scheduled to work his per diem OT job every day this week because another therapist is out sick. He typically works two or three days in a row and then has a day or a few off to recover mentally/physically. Here’s to hoping we don’t hate each other by Friday with his job taking so much energy out of him/potentially increasing crankiness. Fingers crossed!
1/11 Didn’t get to post. I started one but didn’t have a chance to do the last step.
1/12 The past couple days have been bleh eating wise. TOM is arriving later this week and I’m feeling it with the fatigue and not caring about what I eat. I ran 5 miles this morning but did yoga instead of my normal strength training on Wednesdays because I was just tired and not feeling it. After work my husband and I also went for a 2ish mile walk. Hoping to feel better once TOM finally arrives. These hormonal fluctuations are rather annoying. Sorry for the complaining. On the bright side, the week is now more than halfway over.
1/13 Woke up feeling like I wanted to crawl out of my skin but luckily as the day went on I felt better. Started the day with a 45 minute bike ride and ate relatively well all day. It was another busy day at work so I’m just getting to posting now.

Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
