Feeling Prepared

Weighed in this morning and was down 3.6 lbs. I attribute all of that to being consistent on logging calories and eating under my calorie goal daily. It was great to see that on the scale because of all the hard work I had put into planning meals paid off. This morning I also remeasured my body to help see additional changes as I go along.

I also cleaned out my closet and got my room in order for the coming week. I was pleasantly surprised to see that my summer shorts still fit. A little tighter than last summer, but they fit none the less. I am hoping they'll be big by the end of summer.

Today my friend Christina and I walked a mile to Subway to lunch and back to my place. It was a great day in Sacramento for a walk. I also got get started on the MyFitnessPal app! I'm so happy to have so many people using it. I bought a Shape magazine on the way home and it had a 5 week workout/weight loss plan, so I made a copy of it for her, and I promised to check in with her 5 weeks from tomorrow to see her progress. She is going to try to get her boyfriend on the wagon too, and I'll give the info to mine as well.

I am also going to go downstairs and pack my lunch for tomorrow so I can stay on track (I'm closing the brewhouse tonight and won't have time to make a lunch in the morning, so I'm planning ahead!). I've also packed a gym bag for tomorrow after school, so I can go straight to the gym from work. NO EXCUSES!

I am feeling prepared for the coming week (at least in the healthy lifestyle aspect, teaching...not so much). Bring it on!
