This, That, And The Other Thing

I didn’t get in all the exercise I had hoped to today. The evening in particular just got really busy all of a sudden and the workout video I had planned on doing fell by the wayside. I think that has been happening more and more lately; I really need to make the activity more of a priority. It isn’t that I am not working out, because I am! I just think that I should be able to fit more of it in like I was back when I started this blog. Given the flexibility of my schedule right now, I know that I can do better than just a half hour of exercising.

This past week, my food intake has got me totally confused. The first three or four days I felt like I was too munchy, and now the past few lists show that I have been eating less than I normally do. My guess is that my body is trying to balance itself out, but I just feel a little off my routine right now. My biggest concern is that the scale has been up from Saturday’s weigh-in every day so far and I am back to wondering if I will be noting the end of my losing streak in a couple of days. I know that I am probably due, but I would really love to keep seeing the downward trend I have maintained thus far.

  3. Yes, I would say it's torch time!!!
    Don't worry about the scale - I'm sure you'll get back to losing mode.

  6. I am always pointing to horomones at my age,
    :-), but they effect women at all ages so just wondering if your hormones are off with all the stuff going on that you are writing about.

    Hang in there. Our bodies do adjust as we get fitter & healthier & lighter. You can do it!

  7. Your trend is ridiculous though, I've never seen anyone that consistent, so it has to end sometime. Plus you are getting down to that weight where it's probably gonna get tougher to lose.

    Thanks for the advice the other day.
