Weigh-in and Random Cuteness…*edit*
I’m pleased to report a 4 lb loss this week! I’ll let you in on a little (not so) secret: Nutrition is a bigger player in this game than most people realize. I had a very busy, stressful week and managed to get 0 workouts in…between work, hearing the news that a close friend’s husband passed away, pulling together to support this friend and heading out of town for the funeral, the gym was the last thing on my mind. I kept my eating in check and hoped for the best at weigh-in today.
I realize that some people can be successful with the eat junk/workout like a demon cycle, but that has never worked for me. My diet has to be clean…and combined with a little moving and shaking at the gym, I can usually lose at a nice rate. As my WW leader mentioned this morning…"Make your eating clean and your workouts dirty…" <=Yeah, my mind went THERE too. Perverts Unite!
Things have finally settled down in my world and I look forward to getting in some respectable gym time…kicking it off with my infamous Thursday night spin class!
Hope you’re having a great week…

Edit: Just realized that I forgot to add the "random cuteness" to this entry…oy vey! Here are some Easter photos of the godchildren…

Awesome weigh in!! I totally agree about the nutrition. I’ve found that eating the right foods helps me to not crave so much junk 🙂

Love that motto! Most likely, all the working out you usually do helped keep your metabolism high for this off week, right? That’s what they say, anyway. I have found that taking an occasional week off from working out makes me come back much stronger. Bet you will too! Congrats on getting 4# closer to goal. 🙂 —

Thanks for the double-dose of cuteness.

Yeah, when I was ‘good’ before my rebound the week before last, I hardly did any gym time and lost 6lbs. This week, I lost 3lb from clean eating and one gym class. Like what your WW instructor says about workouts and diet!

Yay on the weight loss!! You are right – it’s all about the nutrition! Now when I want something bad, I have to ask myself how much of the bad stuff can I have versus the good stuff and which will be more filling? It’s really mind over matter…you have to practice it daily and when you slip up realize that its okay. I love food! But I like the idea of dirty work outs! hehehe…
