Weekend was a little rough

Ok, so I found out that I have a way harder time with weekends than I do during the week. I've got to make a better plan of action for next weekend.

I did do a few things I was proud of myself for. On Friday night Shawn's family came over to watch the Utah Bowl game and him mom brought all the left over goodies from the week of festivities at her house. I picked up one of the cookies and I took a bite. Then I thought about it for a second and realized it wasn't good enough to blow my entire day. So I threw the rest in the garbage. Next step don't pick up a cookie. :-)

We had a really good snow storm hit Friday night, so yesterday I shoveled snow for about three hours. I should have let that count for my exercise for the day, but I wanted more. I got a gift card to Walmart from Shawn's sister Stacy and her husband Mike for my birthday, so I went and got the Biggest Loser Weight Lose Yoga with Bob. It just about made me cry by the end. Talk about a great work out. I feel really good about the exercise I have done this last week.

I need to adjust my food, but I had a good talk with Kristina last night and she was reminding me of a lot of different options I have. I have kinda been stuck in the plain ground turkey mode and now I don't have that brain cramp so much. I'm going to plan better for my food this week and switch it up more.

I'm really looking forward to weighing in Tuesday morning. I have been trying not to weigh myself and just follow what I need to do. I am still hoping to be under the 200 mark, but that will require almost 5 pounds this week. We'll see... if I am not under 200 Tuesday, I for sure will be by the 13th.

I feel like this has been a productive week and I have learned a lot and felt a ton of support. I am so grateful for this competition, I feel like it is the vehicle I needed to get going with my personal goals of weight lose.
