A Week Off

This week I didn't run at all.


I had all intentions of running on Tuesday morning, and then on Monday, Steve found out that he had an awesome opportunity at work, but it would mean he'd have to leave here by 5:30 instead of his usual 6:15/6:30.


This would mean that I'd have to wake at 4:45 so I could be back for sure by 5:30. I have my limits. Anything with a four at the beginning... not going to happen for this chick. So instead, I didn't run.


Now before I start getting hate comments... let me say that I was active with Gus. I made sure to run around with him and I was extra careful about that I ate this week.


So let me tell you what happened. I lost another pound!


YEAH!!!


One more pound makes my total 10 pounds lost so far!!


And to remind me that I didn't run this week Steve said, "And that's without running. Imagine what it would have been if you had run!" 


Thanks dude.  :-/


Anyway, I am very proud of myself and glad that I was able to lose, especially since I didn't run.


I fully intend of running this week. I'm going to run on Monday and then again on Thursday. Maybe my dad will want to get up with me on Thursday and run. Maybe. I'm sure he has his limits too.


And to top everything off, we're in the middle of the hottest heat-wave in Atlanta! Record-breaking heat... like 105-110. CRAZY hot. So, next week it's supposed to cool off. I don't know how cool it'll be at 5:30am, but it has to be cooler than it will be at 8am.


See ya Monday. I promise.

  2. Haters gonna hate...whatever that means ;) You're not gonna get hate comments, silly chick! If you do, block those peeps. 10 lbs down - what an accomplishment! Sometimes we all get behind, miss a few days, whatever...you'll get back into it. Who can stand this heat?! And chasing a tot is TOTAL exercise!

  3. No need to feel badly my friend, everyone has reasons that get us off track and this crazy heat is certainly not worth being out in. You know, it might have been just what your body needed to drop that next pound, you mixed it up and lots of times that actually works. You are doing terrific!
