On one hand it's tempting to think that I'm currently only losing about four pounds per month, on the other hand at this rate in the course of a year there will be 52 lbs. less of me - it's nothing to sneeze at (well, unless you happen to have a cold).
My primary thought for this week is that working out six days a week means that you're pretty much sore somewhere all the time. I know this means my muscles are getting stronger, but ouch. Since it's grown cold I've started indoor power walking, a workout designed by Leslie Sansone. Aside from the music being horrible these are really good workouts - lots of sweat, lots of movement, no hard impacts and plenty of calories burned.
And tomorrow is Thanksgiving.
My plan is a workout, no second helpings, no dessert, skip the bread basket, and have what I truly want and will most enjoy. I've got a mean spinach, sausage and asiago quiche baking in the oven right now and I intend to enjoy it for breakfast tomorrow. My sister makes unbelievable stuffing with craisins in it and I plan to enjoy that too. I don't really expect to stay perfectly within calories, but nor do I expect to go over by a lot.
Saturday we're celebrating my birthday, which brings cake-related problems. Since I don't really eat desserts anymore - it's okay to have some cake on my birthday... right? I mean, it's my birthday.
