Rainy days and Mondays

Last week Monday-Wednesday it was 95 degrees, sunny, and humid. Today is 57 degrees, rainy, and chilly. It’s like summer just left in the middle of the night. While I do enjoy fall for the changing leaves, the football, the boots and sweaters, and fall activities, I am NOT ready for what comes next.

Because I lost such a significant amount of weight back in the day, I think that when I want/need to lose weight now, it should come off at the rate that it did when I had 150 pounds to lose. That is NOT the case and I am quite irritated about it. I am praying that the 2.8 pounds I’m up from 2 weeks ago is just because I’m doing weight lifting and different muscle movements that I was before. Because I think I just might lose my mind.

I still don’t know exactly what is wrong with me in terms of hormones/weight/whatnot and I am so annoyed. I want answers!!

I did a lot of baking this weekend; banana bread, apple crisp, and two batches of chocolate chip cookies. I don’t tend to eat what I bake, not sure why, I just rarely want to eat the finished product, even though I KNOW it’s delicious. (So I know it’s not that I’m sabotaging my diet! I track and eat so well, but nada)

We went to a friend’s house for a fire Friday night. Our dogs played so hard that they both were limping and they were exhausted the next day as well. Sunday we had a little get together with friends for NFL games (I watched my Husker game without a crowd Saturday as I really don’t enjoy watching those games with non-fans) and the dogs once again played super hard. They both passed out on the couch and barely moved. They’re about 5 or 6 years old (both rescues and we honestly don’t know their exact age) but it makes me sad to see they’re getting older. I mean, look at these faces!!

This is Rio. She’s a lab/Husky mix and is just the best girl.

My sweet Charlie boy.

Ok friends, I’m heading home to workout! Have a great night!
