This week I maintained and stayed exactly the same as last week! That pesky .8lbs will come off eventually. I was very happy with maintaining this week. We went to a wedding over the weekend and I enjoyed some pasta and then last night I had some brisket and thanksgiving meal goodies. Don't think that I indulged by any means. At the wedding I did have larger than normal portions but last night I took very small portions and enjoyed every bite. I am truly feeling the increased temptation to eat all the yummy holiday foods. In moderation is how I am going to get through this time of year. I am also getting together a schedule for workouts. The plan so far is to cram 4 classes into 3 days. I am going to optomize the time that I do have and get as much in as possible. Getting a run in once or twice on the days that I am working will also be something that I am hoping to obtain. Adding in all the workouts will nto only tone my body but is also going to get the weight loss moving again.
We went back to College Station this past weekend and I saw everyone that I hadn't seen since starting on Take Shape For life. Many of them didn't even recognize me!! I have lost 40 lbs since they saw me last. I know thats a lot in my mind but its so hard to just wrap my brain around how much that really is. It really is a lot of weight. If I had gained 40 I would for sure be able to wrap my brain around that! I am still contemplating doing the 1/2 marathon in Dallas in March. I am about 85% sure that I am going too. The wife of my chiropractor is getting a team together for Beach to Bay and she asked me to join. I felt so honored that she would even consider me. Being overwieght I never got asked to do much on the fitness spectrum of events. I may just become a runner yet :-) I am working on loading my ipod with music today so I am on my way.
