Okay, so I met my goal for this week. I was supposed to track all my points on WW. Which I did. And I used all my points except 12. And.....I gained a pound. I'm at 190.
BUT....the good news is I feel better when I'm tracking. And I realize I dip into the chip and pretzel bag too many times at work and eat too many sweets at home.
And I'm glad I made my reward goal. The weight gain makes me realize I need to diet and exercise. This week was super stressful and busy so I didn't have much time to exercise and I didn't want to exercise. This bad habit makes me prone to being irritable. Which leads me to my thought:
Good Diet + Exercise= Happy Kathryn
Goals for this week:
1. Count my WW points
2. Exercise 5 days this week
3. Do 10 burpees every time I want to eat outside of meal time or when I reach for a non healthy snack (BTW, I hate burpees).
Exercise plan:
Sat: bike for 40 minutes. Weights for 10 minutes.
Sun: run 10 miles (probably on the mill)
Mon: speed work. 1 minute repeats at 9:45 min/mile. for 20 minutes with a 10 minute warm up/cool down.
Tues: bike for 35 minutes. Weights for 10 minutes.
Wed: Jillian Michael's workout video (30 minutes) or run 3 miles.
Thurs: rest.

Weigh in
187.4
I had a cold, didn't count any points and didn't exercise. That's enough excuses for one week.

Not worthy of a picture. My week was all messed up with my 1/2 marathon Wednesday.
