OH MY GAWD! You dissappear into blogger hiding for a little while, and when you poke back in, you find your readership has TRIPLED?? Sounds huge...but in actual numbers, I went from 2 to 7...but I am thrilled!
I have no idea where I am at right now. I guess I am sorta...nowhere. The past couple months I have been doing my best to eat as healthy as possible. Marathon training is not a great time to deprive the body of calories...so 'weight loss' has been on hold for a bit. Marathon is over. Summer is coming. It is time to get back on the bandwagon. I have not run in 5 days since the marathon, and my body is truly craving a run. Come Monday, the running shoes are back on, the gym becomes my second home again, and I find my focus again. Some day, I will stop procrastinating everything I do until Monday. Maybe I will start that on Monday. :)
Oh, and in the last couple months, I have gained 10 pounds back. Sucksville. Turns out that running 50 KM's a week does not give you carte-blanche at the dinner table. Who knew?!

I love "How many times can you lose the same 10 pounds before you get some sort of badge or award??" I can SO relate!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can also relate to exercise/food relationship drama. I seriously exercised 600 minutes last week and didn't lose a pound (half a pound to be exact) and then getting discouraged and disappointing and just plain exhausted from all the exercise, I "took a break" which meant eating exactly the same foods, but no exercise, and I wonder why I gained weight...
Why do we torture ourselves :) It really isn't that hard is it? Why does it seem to be for us?
Anyway, sorry I'm not help... other than reassuring you "I DO Understand!"
Good luck on Monday. I LOVE Mondays. My plan next week is to get consistent. I'm going to the gym EVERY day at 6am M-F, not just some days. Hope that this plan works because nothing has so far this year!
