Mamavation Monday: Burn the Turkey
Operation Burn the Turkey is off to a good start. The day before Thanksgiving I weighed myself and I was 194lbs and change. The day after I was also 194 and change and this morning I was:
1lb lost! (Though it is a 2lb gain from last week). Still, not bad. I figure I could easily be back up to 196lbs. Because yesterday's shenanigans totally threw off my mood (post on that coming soon), I didn't get in my weekend workout. Hiking around Disneyland should count though, right?
One inspiration since Thanksgiving is wearing a pedometer constantly. I actually got in a little over 1000 steps just in my kitchen on Thursday! Now that I am back at work, my mileage is down considerably. I was so out of it yesterday I didn't pack my gym bag for today, so it's a bust. I may get in a walk after dinner though and burn off extra calories trying to keep warm. I need to stop talking myself out of working out. Making excuses and procrastinating. I'm really good at that. I haven't reached the point where exercise feels so good that I miss it.

Perfect job on wearing pedometer- I so should do that too. Hang on - I love your number on the scale
ReplyDeleteCongrats on dropping that pound this week. I need to get a pedometer and then maybe I would be more accountable, I bet that helps out a lot.
ReplyDeleteCutest. Toes. Ever.
ReplyDeleteAnd? Great work this week. Woo hoo!
Awesome!!!!!! You rocked it this week. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI take it back. I have a short day at work today so didn't bring gym gear, but I'm kinda jonesin' for some activity other than desk jockeying.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I didn't think I would.
ReplyDeleteIt does. I'm getting into the habit of competing with myself as well as being more accountable.
ReplyDeletegreat loss! keep up the hard work!
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I love the place that does my pedi's. And they last forever.
ReplyDeleteGreat work this week! I love the accountibaility of my pedometer too - there are days when I can 'justify' that I did so much, but looking at the pedometer puts it back in perspective!
ReplyDeletejust a tip - I pack my gym bag and put it in the car the night before - that way the morning rush doesn't throw me off if it is a gym day. :) Good luck this week!
