Week One

Week 1 ended on Easter Sunday. And Sunday was proof that I have zero will power! I caved and ate macaroni, scalloped potatoes and baked beans. All week I did great. Kyle and I even went to dinner at Zinburger on Saturday and I got the bunless turkey burger and an unsweetened iced tea. I still had something delicious and healthy. But Easter hit and I couldn't stop eating! However, we had an amazing day praising our Savior! Then Monday morning. The scale and I had to meet. I knew I wouldn't like what I was about to read. I am pretty in-tune with my body and can tell if I have lost or gained weight just by how I am feeling when I wake up. So it was no surprise that I didn't lose any weight! ZERO pounds lost! Yuck! That was my own fault. The same reason my body hasn't changed since our (almost 2 year old) son was born. So I helped Kyle get the kids off to school and hit the pavement. I had a good 3.5 mile run before I had to be home to get ready for work. It is amazing how I feel after a good cardio session. Which says a lot..because I despise cardio! But I am finally starting to enjoy running. **** Well today is Tuesday which is the second day of the second week and I am on track for success! I tried a new recipe yesterday. Broiled chicken, roasted veggies and a chimichurri sauce. Yum! It is super healthy and my entire family loved it! That is a giant success in my "cooking book!" :) I will post the recipe tomorrow. Here's to another week! Bring the weight loss!!
