3 Day Turn Around..

This is much faster than my normal turn around and it took much longer for me to get here. Normally at about week 2 I give up over eat and then I am depressed about it for a couple weeks or months then thry again but this time. I got there after 4 weeks and it was just for the last 3 days and I am getting ack on track starting today!  According to my scale I am up 1.8 lbs this week. I had to miss weigh in at WW because I had to work this Wed. Granted the scale changed to this weigh right after my binge after my last weigh in and I haven’t been drinking water and hardly eating any fruits or vegies.  So can I bring this back around?  Heck Yes!!  Now I don’t know if the 1.8 lbs is real weight gain or mainly water weight based on the lack of water I’ve been drinking.  I plan to drown myself today in water, so I should be able to tell by tomorrow what it really was. 

So I need to lose the 1.8 I gained plus I’d like to drop an additional 2.2 to bring me to my 10 lbs down. But to be at my 2 lbs a week I should be down 12 lbs meaning I‘d have to lose the 1.8 + 4.2 before my weigh in next week. I am going to try to be better about my food choices. I need to put more fruits and veggies in my diet I mean they are zero points!! And I need to stop not counting my salad dressing, coke or some candy ear and there cause I am sure that is adding up and I am sure they are making a difference as much as I don’t want them too.  And my goal this week is to use my weekly points more over the week. So that is an average of 7 lbs a day. I liked the way the simple start let those be our indulgence points so, I am going to try to keep those for my popcorn, frozen fruit bars, chocolate, cheese.  I am going to add the broccoli & cheese topped baked potato back to my diet cause that felt like a treat even though it was using 3 of my weekly points I think it is worth it.  Another change I am avoiding making, but I think it needs to be done, is get rid of my breakfast sandwich at work.  I’ve always feel this acts as a trigger for sugar and such. So even though it may not be the sandwich it’s self but the diet pop I have with it.  I need to place an advocare order and get some vitamins to take. I am not going to do the whole vitamin packs but just the basic multivitamin and the omega 3 vitamin.  And I need more spark to drink on my day off.

So back to some menu planning  and making better choices. I am predicting that tomorrow I will be back down almost the whole 1.8 I was up after my ample water intake for the day. And I finished off my C25K week 4 yesterday!! During the 5 min jogs I have to tell myself you’ve got this allot after like the 4 min point. This next week they want me to run for 8 mins. O_O  I am not sure how that is possible but a little over a week ago I didn’t think I could run for 5 mins.  So I am just trusting the training schedule. We went to a running store yesterday to check out shoes and maybe get me fitted. My shin splints were really acting up after my 2nd run this week. Did a bunch of research online & found it is most commonly caused by heel striking. So basically you land too hard on your heel.  So yesterday I focused on making sure I was landing mid foot and I had NO pain.
