Where have I been? Nowhere special, just didn’t feel like I had much to say this week. And I have been crazy busy at work and at home, so even when I thought about writing here, the day quickly slipped away from me.
I woke up bright and early today to a chilly, dark morning. I was comfy and warm under the covers, with my cat snuggled up on one side of me and my husband’s arm tossed across me from the other. Let me tell you, just staying in bed was deliciously tempting! But I had signed up for a live Peloton treadmill run this morning, so I reluctantly emerged from the nice, warm bed and braved the chill for a run.
Last night I took the first rest day I can remember in quite a while. I am always afraid if I slow down, I won’t start again. But I felt so tired, drained, and worn out when I got home from work last night, and the last thing I wanted to do was work out. I gave in, got comfy, snuggled up under a blanket on the sofa, and hung out with my husband and my stepson instead.
The rest did me good. Besides my run this morning, I also got a lot accomplished at work today, items crossed off my to-do list, actually making a dent in my inbox. So this is what it feels like to be alert, awake, and non-zombie-like!
Two more days until my weigh-in. This week has been so-so. I have been logging my food (mostly) and I have worked out, except for my rest day. I just feel like I am snacking too much, but I notice that is more on days I feel very sluggish and tired.
I am hoping for at least 2 more pounds gone, but as long as it’s a loss and I am still moving in the right direction, then I am still making progress to my goal!
