The weekend started out great. I went shopping on Friday with Jenny and had dinner. We went to the cheesecake factory and didn't have cheesecake! I had half a burger and a salad. Didn't touch bread at all. Dessert was gelado instead, which was delicious and fit in my macros! I enjoyed this meal very much and I wasn't stuffed afterwards.
Saturday was interval run day. Ashley and I got up early to go to River Legacy Park. It was a perfect fall morning.
We killed some intervals. The last two had my lungs burning and legs shaking. I am loving interval runs because I can see the improvement in my speed. And man! Do runs go by faster! I was like wow, didnt we just pass that? It feels like flying and I love it!
Sat night I attended a BBQ with my Aunt and cousins. Food food food everywhere!! I stayed outside while it was warm, but once the sun went down, it was in by the food. And I did sample...more than I intended. I was talking and not paying attention to how much I munched. So I learned for me, I get a plate of snacks, sit down and consciously enjoy, then no more munching till dinner. I did have excellent ribs and salad for dinner.
Sunday came and I was wore out. So I laid on the couch all day and had soup and tea. I did think ugh, a little mad at myself for over indulging last night, but I shook it off and planned meals to make this week great.
There is no point in worrying over the past, I can use that energy to focus on the week ahead. It is one full of challenges with my college roommate in town, my boss is town, and a girls night planned for Saturday. But I will not let it derail progress! I will be social and healthy, watch me work!
