Getting Back at it

Well it's been a little while since I last posted but to tell you the truth not much has been going on with me.  I have been back to work now just a little over a month and so far so good. The good is I have really only been eating what I bring I have not gone out to buy much in the way of bad food and the only time I got food out was Greek and it was just chicken on the salad I told them I didn't want the rice or the potato and they just gave me more salad so that was really not bad at all other than what ever they put on the chicken before cooking it and I had no dressing on my salad. I have been getting a lot more urges to eat snack foods but I have been able to stay away for the most parts, I have bought a few things from my Dr.'s office to get me through the day if I have a bad craving but it's been ok, One bad thing is I have been drinking more coffee about 4-5 a day and I was drinking only 1-3 before at home now I am not really too sure if that is what has been making me retain water or what but since my last weigh in I have lost weight- (FAT) but I also gained or (RETAINED WATER) so when you look at my actual weight number I am breaking even now I am not going to say that I have been 100% perfect because I have been having some salty food and I know that will make me retain water as well but I am just hoping that I can get over this break because I have been bouncing around 192 -194 for the past few weigh in's and I only weigh in every other week so for a month I really have not moved much in terms of weight loss so I am feeling a bit stuck.
I have just started back a running this past week because I have found that with being back at work by the time I come home I am not wanting to go to the gym after I cook dinner and get the kiddies ready with homework and bath's so I started to run I get everyone all ready and then my husband just has to listen out for the baby while I go for my run, so far so good I ran for about 22 minutes and when I tracked it on map my run it said I did about 2.2k I'm not a runner by any means so I don't know if that’s good or bad, all I know is that I want to try to get further and further every time I go out and if not further maybe make it home sooner then I will change up my route when I get better LOL.
Like I said in my last post since I am playing in Mas this year I am hoping to lose at least 20lbs before then but I only have 6 weeks left  I am not too sure about that any more but I at least want to be out of the 190's I'll keep that as my goal for now.

Thanks for reading
XOXO

  1. Any distance you can run is good...your getting out there! If you do interval running (walk/run), it boosts your metabolism and helps burn more fat. Could get you past your weight-loss slump. You've done great!
