late week weigh in

I've finally gotten around to weighing myself on a scale where the sliding part isn't broken. Good news!

Current: 165
Lost: 3
To go (short term): 8
To go (long term): 15

I have to say, I'm a little surprised that I've lost anything since my eating hasn't been great and I haven't been to the gym since Tuesday. However, maybe it's all the work that I've put in last week catching up. I'm going to hit the gym late this afternoon, then I'm babysitting for a friend tonight which should keep me out of trouble at the bars. I'm working on Sat. evening and Sunday afternoon, so I'm planning to do a longer run on Saturday morning again and try and do something physical on Sunday. I don't have to go to work on Monday (Yay Boston!!) because it's "Patriots Day" a.k.a. the day of the Boston Marathon where the city shuts down and no one has to work since the runners clog the main streets. So instead of sitting along the sidelines of the marathon with a daiquiri like everyone else, I'll probably go for a bike ride if it's nice, or to the gym if it's rainy. I'm also planning to use that day to make some meals to-go later on in the week and hopefully keep myself better on track with dinners. Breakfasts and lunches I've managed to work out pretty well, but that dinner is what always kills me.

Speaking of portable healthy dinners, I think I need to buy stock in Gladware. Since I've been dieting, it seems like my poor dishwasher is always filled with that stuff- salads for lunch, veggies and meat for dinner.... oh well.

Enjoy your weekend and keep me updated! Layla, enjoy the crawfish!!
