In Which We Get Less Fat: Week(s) Five, Six, and Seven…

Did you think I was giving up, dear Internets?  Did you think I was too scared to report my results (only partially true…) Did you think I was trying really hard not to make myself accountable to you?  No!

I would never forget you, sweet Internet fan base. All six of you are wonderful people.  And this way, you don’t have to listen to me blather on when we’re in person.  It’s a beautiful thing.

The last three weeks have been Crazy (Right Now) busy.  I will now catch you up in less than fifty words:

Derby was fun, wet on Friday, beautiful on Saturday.  Lost money, but went to Woodford Reserve Distillery.  Following week spent working off pounds gained from Derby weekend.
(Answer: Way OVER) This week: Sick, so working out didn’t really happen, except I ran a mile Thursday and biked to work today.  (50)

Currently, I’m still trying to catch up from super-busy school week.  This week should allow me to get my groove back in terms of exercise. The best thing that I’ve noticed over the last few weeks is that I actually MISS exercising.  That hasn’t happened in awhile, and makes me feel like I’m turning a corner, health-wise.  Now I just need to be more consistent with health and exercise– I’m looking at you, 12 oz. ribeye steak for Darci’s graduation last night (In my defense, I only had a bagel to eat before that yesterday.)

Tepid drum roll, please!

I stepped on the scale this morning (before my hour-long bike ride, thank you) and the results were… 12 lbs. down exactly.  So thanks the inability to eat a full meal this week until Saturday, I’m caught up and past where I was.  My current goal is to be down 20 lbs. by the Fourth of July, where I’m thinking of signing up to do a 5K.  Anyone want to join me?  You can come over for the July 3rd Warrenville Extravanganza Parade, spend the night (or go home) and then come on out to run early the next morning.  Then you can grill and eat tubular meats to your heart’s content! (or about 600 calories’ worth, which is about how much you burn in running 3 miles.)

Thanks for all the snack ideas for the Derby trip– we had trail mix, water, and beef jerky. They will be staples on any other road trips I do this summer!

Have a great week, y’all.
