So I weighed myself last Friday. 3 pounds down last week! I think it's finally starting to come off again. What's been the secret? It's the same way I lost it the firt time: I gave up sugar and exercised daily. So far, so good. Nick and I have agreed to have only one treat a week, and we've stuck to it. I ate a piece of birthday cake on Saturday at my niece's one-year-old birthday party. It wasn't as awesome as I remember sugar being.
Scale victories this past week: 3 pound loss
Non-scale victories: Turned down banana splits, chocolate chip cookies, a rootbear float, and wedding shower goodies!
Nick has proposed that we train for an upcoming triathlon this June. He wants to do an Olympic tri. I've done Olympic and it's pretty hard, but not impossible. For me, I think a Sprint is a little more doable right now. When I was originally training for an Olympic, I was exercising 1-2 hours a day and 3 on Saturdays. Now that I have a baby that's going to be nearly impossible, so for now I'm sticking with a half-hour daily. I think I can hack a sprint tri on a half-hour exercise every day. I just take my little babe to the empty gym at my work and he lays in his carseat quietly while I exercise. It's great!
I'm in the business of creating websites for a living and, in the past, I've bartered quite a bit for web services. I've bartered for a reception center, a wedding dress, a wedding cake and cupcakes for showers, hair salon services, beauty spa services, male dress clothing, custom tailoring, and even liposuction. I think my next bartering endeavor is going to be for personal training! Oh yes. That's how I'm going to afford it.
I'll have to report after I've gotten on the scale for this afternoon's workout.
