This week has been busy, but I am continuing my walk/run training. Yesterday, I took Ian out with me to walk/run around the neighborhood. For once, my son had a hard time keeping up with me! Usually, I am trying to keep up with him! Melissa continues to kick butt at water aerobics. The last two mornings I have not made it down to work out on the elliptical. Mostly because my thighs are aching first thing in the morning.
I think I have solved part of my hunger issues. I fell back into a very bad habit of drinking with my meals. It is the one rule I find the most difficult. The last few days I have been super cautious and avoid beverages for at least 30 minutes after a meal. It is helping with the hunger in my body. Now it does not stop the head hunger, but now when the head hunger hits, if I take a bite of something, I am instantly full. This is good.
The scale continues to fight me. It is back up again to 247 after hitting 242 last week. Mathematically, with the amount of exercise I do and the amount of calories I am consuming, this is just impossible. I am starting to get discouraged, but I chug along. I cannot let the scale derail my efforts to be the healthiest I can be. However, my surgeon will be disappointed come Monday morning. He seems to look at the scale more than anything else. I am trying to look at myself as an entire person.
Here are my meals for yesterday and today.
