JustKeepSwimming: I can't say that happens to me, I workout at home, but I think it would be really funny to see someone laughing at the gym...that's great, that means you are probably not bored. I do watch tv, or even read, sometimes when I am on the stationary bike at home. I try to distract myself in any way I can, I hate cardio!!!
Well, I started off the day awesomely. My husband asked if I wanted to go for a walk, his usual route which is challenging. I said yes...I knew it would be hard because there were steep hills involved but I didn't realize how hard and how long we would walk. I had to stop a few times going up the hills, they were so intense. We ended up walking 85 minutes! I was DEAD when we got home. The worst was that when we got back to our apartment complex, we had to walk up one last steep hill and I almost didn't make it. So, that was my exercise for today.
We were asked to go to a bbq where they were making fajitas and things, and were sort of pressured, but we only said we might come and we don't plan on going. I know how I get at social situations: I feel awkward and nervous and so I eat to feel better. I know that I would eat like crap if we went. I've stayed on plan all of today and have a plan for tonight. We are going to have pizza......................but they are whole wheat pita pizzas, so they fit into my plan.
I am down 5 something pounds since weigh-in day, but I weighed in on the first day, so it's been more than a week. I lost 2 something lbs this week. Hopefully I can keep this pace up. Right now is the end of the semester, so it's a real challenge to stay on plan and get in exercise, but I will find a way and not let you guys down!
