You win some you lose some





So the visit with my parents.  I always gain when I go there. My mother decided the healthiest thing to make was a Chinese stir fry...with brown rice.  She decided that rice was healthy and there was no issue with me eating it.   She's my mother...sigh. and of course I ate two servings...sigh.

I did manage not to eat the cupcakes, cake, soda, and other little treats she had in the house, so while I gained, I only gained 1.6 lbs.  I don't really have any plans this week so once again hoping I can get out of the 360s.  The other side, and completely my fault, is I had a hamburger. I was tired from driving, didn't really have anythig in the house and knew once I got it, I would just crash. There is the theory the hamburger did it all, but meh..I think it was a combination.

My knee is better.  My co-workers suggested I wear a brace. I have a soft sock like one and its helped alot.  I worked out with modifications and feel ok. Once again happy I had fitness glo. I picked the workouts that fit my needs, queued them up and I am good. Really couldn't be better. 
I did cardio and strength in one day so I can stay off of for a while day.

Didn't meal prep so going to try and be careful about eating out this week.

Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...
