Thank goodness for Hershey's Sticks Dark Chocolate, only 1 point!!! So, feeling kinda tired today. I got up at 5:15 this morning and actually made it to the gym. I have not gone since I hurt my foot and once you get into that lull, its very hard to dig yourself out of it. But I knew that I would not be able to go back to sleep, once I am up, I am up. So I yelled at myself to get my butt off the bed and get to the gym. I basically pulled a Jullian on myself (Biggest Loser reference). So I got dressed and headed to the gym. I worked myself really hard this morning. I started off with a slow walk, then faster, added an incline, then faster and faster, more incline til I got to the point where I was running at 5.0 on a 3.0 incline. I felt the burn, let me tell you... But at the same time I knew that I had done good. I took it a little easy on myself since its been a while and my body has to get back into the routine of going every morning like I had been. When I got to work I figured out how many activity points I earned, 5!!! I am not going to eat them tho. I am going to enjoy the fact that I have them available but use self control not to use them. I will, however, be using all my activity points when we are in Yosemite next week. I want S'mores!!! I am going to keep track of everything I eat so that when I get back into town I can enter everything on my eTools. I am sad that I am going to miss the Monday weigh in/meeting tho. I actually look forward to getting weighed in. Its so nice to finally find something that works after all these years. I was watching the Biggest Loser last night and there is a girl on there that has the same disease I have. She was not losing very much weight and I totally feel her pain. I hate this, but the only way to really get rid of it is by weight loss, talk about a catch 22. Well my day is almost over here at work. Elizabeth and I are going to go to the gym together after work tonight, I am really looking forward to it, even tho I really need to do laundry. I can always do that tomorrow night. So peoples have an awesome night and I will talk to you tomorrow sometime...
P.S. Here is a picture of where I will be on Saturday and for the entire week...
