YAY....its going to be chilly out. Tomorrow a front comes through, a REAL front, bringing a low into the 50s tomorrow. However, on Wednesday the high only reach about 60, which is lower than our normal lows are around here. The low for Wednesday night will be around 42, making the "feels like" temps in the 30's. Brrrrrrr. I LOVE IT. The next couple of days after that will be awesome as well, though not nearly as chilly with a high of 72 for Thursday and 75 for Friday.
Ok, so are you tired of my weather report yet? Sorry. It is my blog, and I LOVE weather, especially when I goes in my favor. I could just talk about this all day. So I will talk about something else.
Weight loss. I've been stuck in the same group of 10 lbs for three months. I should have been down another 20lbs at least by now, so I have no one to blame but myself. And Reese's peanut butter cups. I have to give them some blame. Who is so tasty sweet, rich and creamy, with just the right hint of peanut butter, and then gets off the hook for making people overweight? Its not fair, and I plan to take down all peanut butter cups.
But anyway, seriously, I didn't necessarily fall off the wagon, its more like the peanut butter cup pushed me off (or tried to) and I was hanging behind the wagon by a rope, trying to climb back up. But when the wagon is going like 100mph, its not an easy feat. So here I am, the wagon pulled over by the police for speeding, giving me the perfect opportunity to get back on, which is the plan. (Did I just lose you with my attempt to be funny? Sorry.) I am currently only now down 29lbs exactly, thanks to an almost 7 lb gain in the last 2 weeks, YIKES. Did you know it was possible to only gain 7 lbs and feel as if you just gained back the entire 36 you lost? Well, I feel like I gained THAT much. But I am ready for round 2. The past three months I should have been giving this 100%, and I was only giving it about 45%. I'm tired of being on this roller coaster, and I'm ready to get to the end of this ride. I have a gym membership that I bought the Monday after Thanksgiving, a Cyber Monday deal which turned out to be a really good deal, and I have every intention on using it. Now, I've been subconsciously making excuses as to why I shouldn't go to the gym. I have a bad shoulder (left side, no idea what happened, but for a few months now I have pain when I use it to lift things, or just when I lift it up above my head or behind my back). I think I've let my brain convince me that without being able to use my arm in my workouts it wasn't worth going to the gym for, which by the way, is not true. I can do cardio, and I can do weight training with my lower half of my body and my abs. I could work out my right arm but then I would look funny. In any case, I don't forsee my shoulder feeling better in the near future, but I can't wait on it forever to workout......and I don't need to. I can workout without my arm, and I will.
2008 is going to start a new year for me. I will finish this journey THIS year. After that, I start a whole new one trying to maintain, but thats a whole different ballgame. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
Enjoy the weather where you are. If you're cold....think of me and how much I love it. :)
