Week 7 - The Happy Pound



Pounds gained this week: 1.0
Total pounds lost: 7.5
Pounds to go: 32.5

Confessions

Who ever invented Cadbury Mini Eggs should be drug out to the street and shot. Seriously, how can anyone resist such a delicacy? I usually allow myself one bag during this time of year - to be enjoyed SLOWLY and over time. What do you think I did? Of course - I snarfed a whole bag in one day. It was emotional eating - eating out of happiness. Hence my week's title, the happy pound.

What Worked for Me
I worked out hard the first couple of days, but then I got obsessed with our new job opp and spent the rest of my spare time searching the internet for details on the area. But, the two workouts I had were good and I am just starting again this week.
I'm sad not to have a recipe to share :(.

Goals for This Week
The main problem with getting my workouts in is that if they don't happen at the start of the day, then they generally don't happen. So, I made myself a great CD with good morning wake-up songs that I'm putting in my CD player/alarm clock to wake me up! Ideally this will be before the boys wake up, so I can get it done in peace! Wish me luck!
Good luck to all!!!

That pound and the new job opportunity are worth celebrating! I can't resist those Cadbury things either. At least you had more time to check things out for your possible new home. I have been checking into Athens quite a bit more now in light of some recent developments. Good luck with the music and workouts!

A pound for happiness is a good thing! Don't look at it as a set back, but a lesson learned. Good thing Cadbury Mini Eggs are only out once a year! Good luck next week!

Well, at least it was chocolate and something you really enjoy! And, not to make excuses, but after this winter and all the sickness, a bit of chocolate happiness is in order!

I think you mentioned on your blog that the weather is getting nicer. I think that will help boost us all in attaining our goals...there's just something about good weather that makes you feel better!
