Friday again??

Wow, I cannot believe it's Friday again already! And in 2 more Fridays, it will be Wedding Eve :) I better get to work!!
Weigh in = -0.4 lbs!! Ha. Too funny. But I'm back in the 148 range so I'm happy.
The weekend is slotted to be busy. I get dizzy just thinking about it. We need to finalize some things + shop for some things + visit J's nanny cause she's not coming to the wedding + visit my parents to finalize some things + get my house in better shape as there will be company around in the next 2 weeks. Yikes. J is supposed to be off early today and has a "to do" list. I'm hoping that pans out!
I'd like to say that I'll check in more often but I'm not sure that's going to be happening. I WILL at least report my weight next week if nothing else.
Happy Friday :)

-Today is Friday
-Running 6K tonight
-Running 12K tomorrow
-Jen, bridezilla has made girls get dress shortened to the bottom of the kneecap + your shoes are cute and if you think they look good then I'm happy (that's me NOT being bridezilla!!!)

Rest Day

Well, not too much to report for today. It's rest day so no excercise. Good thing cause I think I tweaked my foot a little yesterday. Hopefully it will be OK tomorrow.
RSVP's for la wedding are due on Saturday - we are still waiting to hear from LOADS of people. Maybe this will be much smaller than expected!! Oh well, I know the good people are coming!! Dress fitting = tomorrow! I tried it on with my shoes and I could *almost* get away without alterations...if only I were 1/4 inch taller!!
I'm an Olympics addict. I have actually moved my hair straightener and makeup to my room so I can watch in the morning while getting ready for work. I'm weird.
Ok, that's all the randomness I have for today.

Moderate over-indulgance

So following a few drinks on Saturday night and not keeping track of what I ate on Sunday, I'm back. Hmmm, wonder why I don't lose weight??? Same pattern EVERY week. Good Monday - Thursday where I weigh in then spend the weekend not paying attention. By Monday morning, back up 3 lbs that I lose from Monday to Thursday. This was a fine pattern when I was at goal weight but I'm not liking it right now.
You would think my solution would be to quit misbehaving on the weekend - sounds reasonable, right? But I don't learn apparently. I'm hoping that my running will help me out this week. If not, I may actually have to track points on weekends - GASP!!!!
I ate well today and followed points and got in a 10K run after work (in between the thunderstorms!!). We didn't eat dinner until 7:30pm so snacking after dinner has not been a problem, thankfully :)

My scale doesn't care

I was actually thinking that I did OK this week. I mean, I wasn't the perfect weight watcher but hey, I did run 22K this week. My scale couldn't tell apparently. Or it just didn't care. I'm the SAME weight. No less, no more. I didn't let that get me down though - I went and started my new week off with a 6K after work today. Take that you stupid scale!!!

Let's be honest,

today was not my best day. You would think there would be extra willpower due to the fact that tomorrow is weigh in day. But, no. Not the case. I had a crap day at work which resulted in a lack of lunch. That resulted in a headache and a NEED for sugar. So, a peanut butter cookie later, I was starting to feel better. Until I got home and J informed me that we need to finalize the caterer/cake situation + write thank-you's + think about the 11 other things that are on my wedding to do list. SO - on to the crackers, cream cheese and hot pepper jelly I go. I tried to convince J to get us take out for dinner but just before he left, I decided I could muster up the energy to make some pita pizzas. Following that, there may have been a wagon wheel.
So, all in all - not the best coping skills today. I need to find a better way to deal with the stress. We'll see in the AM what the damage is. Wish me luck...

Drive by post...

Here I am. Ran 6K after work. Made dinner. Had some tea and a 100 cal dipps bar. Going to watch J's baseball soon so I'm not sitting here tempted by food. I'm HUNGRY today!!!!! What's up with that?!
The rest of the thank-you's must wait another day!
PS. I can't get into hotmail and it's really pissing me off. I have emails to send#@*$)@#*$
