So, that's what I'm calling it. That's what it is. I have my lunch sack all packed with healthy snacks - greek yogurt, a white peach, Starbucks strawberry-lemonade refresher... and what did I have for breakfast? I got myself some coffee in the breakroom with WAY too much french vanilla creamer, 4 mozzerella sticks from the 7-11 next door, and some bacon-cheddar potato chips.
Why?
Because I'm down a total of 20 lbs since 4th of July and my clothes don't fit any different, I feel a little healthier, but after seeing pictures of myself at my cousin's wedding, and especially next to my super cute, super trendy sister in-laws, I look like a whale-out-of-water.
*sigh*
So I allowed myself to stress-eat. And now I'll be going to the gym and swimming after my Couch to 5k run tonight. And that's okay. I can't
always keep telling myself "no" or I will feel like I'm constantly punishing myself. Next time, though, I need to pick ONE of my stress-foods to give in & eat, not "all of the above".
I'd like to keep my 20 lbs "lost" and keep losing more.... As long as my heart and my stupid ankle cooperate, I should be done with the "Week One" for Couch to 5k by Friday! Which is exciting, because I've registered for the Hot Chocolate Seattle run, and am starting to look at other 5k's that I can handle... maybe, by this time next year, I'll be doing the 15k?!
I'm trying to be slick & hyperlink the run, but can't seem to get the shortcuts & functions to work on this out-dated version of IE. Soooo, click here!

See you at the gym, folks! *grin*
