Weekly Review

Another week, another Sunday blog post.

I am writing this week’s weekly review from work. It is 4:16am and there is a white, vanilla slab cake beckoning to me from the kitchen. The cake is huge and so sweet. I had more than I should have, but still not over my calories for the day. Thank goodness! However, I think I had too much cake and now my tummy is funny.

Cake = Evil

This week I suffered through overnight shifts. I don’t mind them really, but feel very unmotivated when I wake up at 2pm. I hit the gym only once this week but it was a great workout- I talked earlier this week about running a 12 minute mile on the treadmill. I also did the arc trainer and some strength. Since I wasn’t feeling the gym this week, I really utilized my elliptical doing (3) 30 minute sessions. I also logged 4 and a half hour of walking time.

I seem to be saying this every week but, I want to run outside so badly! However, I do not have the gear and the weather is not very nice in Canada at this time of year. It is warming up, but it still very cold! There is also a lot of ice on the sidewalks and trails.

Eating went well this week. So far I am over my calories 1/6 days with Sunday left to track. I picked up a few new low-cal cookbooks from the library and thought it might be fun to try something new- so heads up for that!

Weigh-in did not reach this week’s goal, but the day before W.I. the scale was saying 202.8 lbs. It is only a matter of time.

As for "Blogging for a Cause- Japan"- I gained 2 new followers this week, that means I will be donating $12 to the Canadian Red Cross Japan Relief Fund. It's not much, but every little bit counts at this point!

This Week’s Goals:

1. Try a new low-cal recipe
2. Nose to the grindstone week for exercise- get to the gym for 3 workouts and keep up with the elliptical
3. Hit 199.9 lbs on the scale at some point this week- Friday or before. Lofty dream? I hope not!

Happy Week Ahead To You ALL!
