plateau

It's that time again, when I plateau. This time though, it's just that my eating is all over the place because I haven't made homemade food in ages, and because I am walking less due to snow storms.

The good news is, the minute I start home cooking and reintegrating Saturday workouts, I will be back to dropping pounds I'm sure. I think I don't have enough steam to lose another 10 lbs by Jan 1, but I am hoping to at least get below 140 and stay there throughout Christmas. Even when I was fat I did manage to get through one or two holidays without gaining a pound. It's allllll about awareness of what you're putting in the pie hole.

I have been between 143-144 for a few weeks now, with brief jumps and dips. This week, the food I ate was almost alllll heathly and I made sure to eat lots of veggies/fruit, which is hard to do (well it's hard to find FRESH, not oily/fried veggies). I also played 3 hours of vball on Monday, 4.5 hours on Wednesday (that was a killer), and last night I walked to and from vball (1 hour total) and played for about 2 hours. Saturday I am going to a fitness class with a friend, and it's free! This week was intense with all the vball I played, but it felt amazing.

I cannot wait to go to my parents' place for Christmas. I know it may be a bit stressful with my brother there, but I desperately need any form of time off work...

Today, I decided to continue to eat out for another day. I haven't bought any food, so the breakfast I'd have here would be less healthy than what I get at my usual breakfast spot. I have a feeling I wont end up buying much groceries until the new year... That's probably when I'll try to do the Game On challenge again to lose the last weight. I am always more motivated in Jan/Feb. Plus, technically I have until about January 16 or so, maybe even later, to be 1 full year since I started losing the weight.

Okay, off to work and to get brekkie :)
