I did well yesterday. My biggest success was NOT caving on sugar, since ALL I could think about was giving in. I literally walked into the kitchen 5 or 6 times to grab some chocolate, but turned around and walked out. Willpower is a hard thing!
I went to an early morning triple fit class, but wasn't able to get any weights in. I will get more weight training tomorrow (I'd like to do weights three times a week to work on building muscle as much as building up my cardio).
Today is okay so far. I slept in and only had time to run a mile before running off to journal writing at Jaxson's school. But, I did crank up the speed and ran it a minute faster than I normally do, so that was good.
I am nervous that I won't lose on Friday since I am allowing the extra calories, but we'll see. My mother-in-law said that to burn 1 lb a week, you need to burn twice as many calories as you consume. So, for her, she did a 1200 calorie diet and burned roughly 2400 calories a day. Also, she has a great way to slowly go back to a maintenance diet (which takes 4-6 weeks). I will share the details later.
I have a ways to go before I think about that, however... 10 more lbs! My goal is to have it off in 10 weeks! That puts me at December 15 (roughly).
Time to start again
