And to be honest with you, its mostly because I’ve been a hot mess lately.
Let me explain.
I took a much needed 4 day weekend, to help my family do some stuff around the house. My dad, and brother and I built a shed for my parents, we put in a new stove for them, and had a lovely 4th of July. But I felt like I over-indulged.
The scale was up about 5 pounds in one day and I freaked out. I had french fries and ice cream and a burger, but didn’t think that would do me in. I was still running and doing physical labor.
So I’ve been freaking out, and not knowing what to do. Because the weight simply wouldn’t come off. No matter what I did, or how little I ate. The weight stayed put. It just wouldn’t come off.
Then, it did.
And you know why it did?
It’s Shark Week!
I’ve have never been so grateful in my entire life for this week to come!
All I can say, is WHEW!
I’m back on the bandwagon of healthy eating and running. Although I did oversleep this morning and I missed my run. I’m going to try to get one in tonight, but if I can’t, I won’t beat myself up over it.
My body has settled at a weight that I am happy with. I weigh myself everyday, and I think I will for the rest of my life. Its my way to keep myself accountable. That’s why I knew I was up so much each day. But, I have to remember not to freak out sometimes!
