So yesterday was not such a great day for me. I woke up feeling really down in the dumps and I really let it get the best of me for most of the day. I pretty much sat on my butt all day long.

I did log. I did stay under calorie.

I was craving comfort food, as I do when depressed. I didn't really have junk( ON PURPOSE!) in the house so I made a boxed cake that I found hiding in the pantry. Now, in the past I could have eaten a good chunck of that sitting on the couch feeling sorry for myself. That is where I was headed. Skillpower, or willpower, I don't know which, but something in me didn't allow myself to do it. YEAH ERIKA! I ate about 200 calories worth of that cake and then threw the rest of it away.
(If I had left it out I am sure I would have taken little bites here and there that would have added up.)
SO, looking back at yesterday I am pretty proud of that little accomplishment.

Also, I promised myself I would push through the soreness and depression and get my butt to the gym in the evening to run and do YOGA. I was not about to do this ya'll. My sweet hubbie knew I needed it and made me go. I am so grateful! I got up and went and had a really good workout. YOGA was really tough as sore as my legs were from my leg workout on Wed with my trainer, but I am very glad I did it.

When I came home, Jason had fresh asparagus and roasted chicken waiting for me for dinner! GO JASON! No pizza, or something fattening an tempting like he usually does if he is in charge of dinner!
What a wonderful husband I have! Now I just have to show him I realise it a little more!

I am going to choose to have a rest day today. NO EXCUSES, just listening to my body. I about died through YOGA and I had to take some easier poses often because my back was really feeling it. I think this was because my legs were just dead and my core muscles were pretty dead too from Wed workout. My legs feel like jelly today. I may do a walking hour on the treadmill, but no running today. Just something slow.

I will do my last day of Week 3 on the Couch to 5K program on Sunday. Then comes Week 4!!! Week 3 has been really easy. I was tempted to go ahead but the program stresses to not try and jump ahead, so I am being patient. I am sure I will soon hit a week that I will have to turn into 2 weeks or 3. I cannot imagine running for 30 minutes straight. I cannot wait to be able to do that. I cannot wait for that feeling of accompishment!!!! I WILL GET THERE!!!!

Oh, any by the way. I cheated and stepped on the scale today. I promised myself I would only weigh on Wednsdays. I am owning up to my slip for everyone to see. I finally lost some weight though I hope it stays off by next Wednsday! I am not gonna post it since it was not my real weigh in day. I am just gonna keep on truckin.... keep on following my plan.....keep on pushing towards my goals....keep on looking to GOd for his guidance throughout my day.....and we will see what Mr. Scale says on Wed.

I hope everyone reading this has a great weekend! Thanks for listening to my boring life. It helps me to write out my feelings!
