View NIKKI8's food & exercise for this day
Bold Playing around with html tags to see what works since I don't have a tool bar in my browser.
Better day today. I stayed on my food program and stayed under calorie target. I got in a great workout with my spin class.
But this was all out of pure will power. I mean, I just did not feel like doing this. I just don't feel the passion to eat healthy and exercise right now. I just forced myself to in hopes that I will get some momentum going and get back in the swing of things.
I think weight loss is like that sometimes. I'm sure everyone feels like this. I just don't know why. My sister asked me if there's something going on emotionally to contribute to my poor eating of the last few days. But I can't think of anything. It's like my brain is fuzzy.
I try to recall my wonderful reasons for doing this and I just feel "Blah".
Well, the answer will come. Or maybe there is no answer. Maybe it's just a little phase. I hope it passes soon. I feel like I'm trudging through mud.
I want to run with my friend in a fundraiser 5k. We would run/walk as if we are training. But my husband says no. He says there are too many things to do.

I explained that I would get there at 7:30 in the morning and be done by 9:00. He and the kids will barely be awake and doing more than eating during that time. No dice. He just has sooo much to do. I know what will happen. He will do nothing or accomplish nothing during that time and I will be so frustrated that I couldn't do my run with my friend. GRRRR! I am tempted to get someone to watch the kids, but who wants to watch them so early on a Saturday. And it would be a pain to get them up so early, drag them to someone's house, etc.
Okay, I need to go study again.

Ack thats too bad about the 5k, I know you would have a blast! Btw I updated taht green bean recipe in the BfL thread, it is too long to post in here. And yes, the pork chop recipe came from me. I usually marinate it for at least a couple hours but the marinade is still very subtle. The best thing it does is keep the pork chops juicy (if you cook them on a grill).

You did great. I am proud of you! Sometimes you have to just make yourself comply and your motivation will eventually catch up. I am going to hold back my comments on your husband right now ... except maybe not ... OK, I'll just say this: I think you should go anyway. OK. There I said it
