*DUN DUN DUN*

weigh-in day. it hasn't happened yet, but will in just a few short hours.

whose idea was it to plan weight watchers meetings for the evening, anyway?!? some skinny b**ch, i bet. i wake up feeling light and fresh, and by, oh, let's say 3pm, i feel tired, stressed, and generally larger. not sure why, but it's nearly daily.

anyway, i've actually had a great week. i've worked out...cardio, strength, and stretching. i've eaten well...barely used my flex points. i'm at least hoping to make up for some (most would be great) of my christmas "pudge". we shall see!

one idea that i've incorporated into my journey is forgiving food after each weigh-in. if i'm hungry for pizza, i eat pizza. if i want some peanut butter, i have some peanut butter (side note: why is it that the best tasting foods are SO high in points??). but anyway, it helps. it's like my one moment each week when i allow myself to relax about food. relax about counting points. oddly enough...i'm finding that as the weeks roll by, i'm beginning to make healthier choices, even in the moments i tell myself points don't matter. how cool is that?? :)

OH...i almost forgot. my BIG plan! i've decided to train for another half marathon! :) may sound crazy to some, and like no big deal to others. for me, for some reason, it feels necessary. i've run 2 half marathons in the past...only a few years ago. but since then, i have barely run at all. just 2 weeks ago, i started feeling an "itch" to go it again. so here i go. but luckily, not alone. get this...a good family friend is joining me...and between the two of us, we may have convinced my mom to give it a shot! (fyi: she is also doing WW, and is the beginning stages of gaining great fitness!) i'm SUPER excited! she has given me the motivation to train hard and see where it takes me! i'll keep you "posted" ;-)

ok, kids, gotta run...literally! and then? off to my weigh-in!!
