I didn't get my second weigh in this week. I usually do it on Saturday, and this was a very busy weekend. I'm gonna be working hard to make it in on my regular schedule... I know I was very off plan this weekend though so I hope it's not too bad.

Stepped out of the car, looked down, and realized I never put my sneakers on before leaving the house--I still had my flipflops on. *sigh* By the time I got home and got my sneakers on, I knew I'd have virtually no workout time left by the time I got back to the gym.
So, I decided to try to go for a jog around the neighborhood. It couldn't be that much different than running on the elliptical, right? Right?? WRONG! I got about 1.5 blocks and thought I was going to die. I ended up just going for a long walk. After dinner, I took the dog out for another long walk. Walked up to the in-laws' house for a short visit (they live just under a mile away), then had to book it home. Decided to try jogging home with the dog (because he wanted to go faster than I could walk) and I ended up running almost all the way back home, with just a few breaks here and there!

I can relate to this. I went to the gym one day and took everything out of my bag only to find I had one shoe. Now when I pack my back every night I check it to make sure I have two shoes in my bag. I'll check it six or seven times a night. I work with a trainer 3 times a week so I need to make sure I have everything I need before I leave in the morning.

I always just cook it all and save the rest for later. So for example I'll get a pack of 3 breasts, cut it up and cook it all. I normally have enough for dinner (for two ppl) and then enough for lunch for 1-2 days after.

Congrats! I can't wait to run. I've started some light jogging.

I do the same thing and if it turns out I end up with 3-4 oz left over, I just eat it with another protein from the same protein group.
