Weight Loss Wednesday

Back in the saddle again with Jen from Rosey Little Things for Weight Loss Wednesday. I would like to say that I lost 2 pounds, but i haven't and here's why: schedule problems. Since Ava almost 2 years ago, I have been unable (or unwilling) to get up at 5am to go run. It's like something has switched off in my brain. Maybe it's the cold temperatures, school looming, I don't know. Pre-Ava I could get up at 4:30, wake up sufficiently and then go workout, no problems. I've been getting up about 5:30 and have not made it past my cup o'tea. So, because that's not working, I'm going to have to suck it up and go from school to the Y for my runs. That also means that my kids are going to have spend another hour somewhere else so that their momma can get a workout in. OR I'll get everyone fed, bathed and put to bed and THEN I'll go.

Diet wise, I've cut back on all the overindulgences of the holiday season, but I haven't cut it out entirely. I'm still eating a little bite of chocolate chip cookies here, and a little of the kids' dinner here.

Goals next week are to actually run 3x and to cut the food impeding my goals. Maybe then I'll be a little lighter next week.

The snacking is what kills me. It's really hard to stop picking at food when you're a parent.

great goals, very similar o mine other than I can not run because my husband makes fun of the way I run! I need a running lesson!
