Week Two

Weighed in this morning and wasn't surprised that the 1.5 pounds I lost last week had found their way back. I really made poor eating decisions this week and didn't make it to the gym as much as I had hoped. The poor eating decisions were kind of unavoidable, but I could have worked harder. It was a wonderfully horrible week. I was completely spent from Wednesday until this morning (I'm not subbing or working at the brewhouse), but I am excited to be in a long term sub position while my friend is on maternity leave.


This week in a nutshell:

Monday- Had a really nice lunch date, and we both ordered salads at the restaurant.

Tuesday- Went to Body Pump and Turbo Kickboxing and enjoyed watching the biggest loser.

Wednesday- Went to observe my friend Dominique's class because I was going to take over when she went on maternity leave in the next few weeks. She ended up getting a call from her doctor during 2nd period saying she needed to go to the hospital right away. I ended up teaching the rest of her class. And then I worked a shift at the brewhouse. Needless to say I was exhausted and didn't make a good choice for my dinner at work.

Thursday- I subbed in Dominique's class again. I tried my best to bring a healthy lunch, but I didn't have any lunch food ready to go or planned for the week because I wasn't expecting on working. The new guy did make me a super nice dinner of steamed veggies, pork tenderloin, and salad. But I did have two beers that evening. But we had a wonderful evening.

Friday-  I subbed again and worked a closing shift at the brewhouse. I picked a calzone to have for dinner. Not the best choice, but I did pack it full of veggies. 

Saturday- I worked at the brewhouse and was exhausted and made a really bad choice for dinner. I basically ate a whole days worth of calories for dinner alone.

Sunday- Another shift at the brewhouse. But I did find a new dinner that I think I'll be getting. It's a balsamic glazed chicken with a salad and mashed potatoes and is about 600 calories. Not too bad.

This week's goals are to pack better lunches, and make it to the gym as many times as possible this week. I don't work at the brewhouse again until Saturday so I am hoping that I can go to the gym most weeknights. It will be sooo much easier to get to the gym when I don't have to go from school ending at 3:15 to a 4:00 shift at the brewhouse.  I also need to make better dinner choices this week to see if I can get that 1.5 pounds to leave again!
