Well, last night I drank, and I never drink. An old old friend came by and we shared a bottle of wine. Luckily (I guess) I hadn't had breakfast or lunch and only had dinner, so I actually didn't go over my calorie allowance, but there was not a lot of nutrition that day. I made up for it today by eating berries and a really yummy salad and a substantial dinner. Don't think I'll be picking up a wine bottle for awhile, but there are plans for a few weekends from now that might involve being around it. I can always abstain.
Tonight, while I had planned to go to the gym in the morning, my monthly visitor arrived. Of course, this doesn't mean I can't go to the gym, but whether I'll feel like it in the morning is the question! I think I should drag myself. After my last sort of disappointing session, I think I can handle the introductory week of the C25K program and go from there. The thought of being able to run 5k is pretty unbelievable to me. I remember in grade 3, we had to run "27 laps" around the gym, which ended up being a 1600 metre run, or 1.6 kms, it was excruciating. I had to walk a lot of it, and usually finished near the bottom of the class. Being able to run 5k would effectively make me more fit than I have ever been in my life. I am excited about having a fitness goal rather than a weight loss goal.
I hope everyone is winning the battle this week. My first week I am down 5 pounds, but on first weigh in I was full of food and salt and dehydration, so I don't think this reflects actual fat loss. I think my weight loss will slow down after last week and even out. At least that is my hope. As much as I would love to lose it all as soon as possible, if I lose as the rate that's recommended, I will know it's truly fat loss and it'll be something I can maintain.
Thanks for all the comments on my last, confused journal entry. All the advice was amazing and helped me out so much! This community is truly unrivaled.
