UGH - weight back up to 121.4 - trip to Costco, hot dog, food station tastings. I just sabotaged myself. Why do I do that? Why do I feel the need to put things in my mouth when it contradicts my personal goals. WHY?????

Day 3, 10/17/18
My weight is down to 119.8 this morning, feels good to be below 120. I hope I can keep the weight off as well as continue to go down. Last night I drank way too much, started craving toast, which of course I ate. It was gluten free toast, but I should not have been eating it. I'm just happy that I stayed away from the Halloween candy. I had wanted to get up and run this morning, but the drinking prohibited that.
I'm working from home today, and already made myself a breakfast burrito . . . but whole wheat low carb tortilla, however I did add cheese. I will run as soon as I can today . . nice easy 4 miles.
Felt horrible on the run and had to walk some. Of course the worst part, I hate looking down at my legs and seeing the cellulite on the front of my thighs and feeling everything jiggle. I long for the days of lean (well lean for me and my little tree trunks), muscular legs. I was thinking today next big milestones for me, in the 115.X weight range and when my thighs don't touch.

Day 2, 10/16/13
Still weighed in heavy - 121.2, but really what did I think would happen in one day. A miracle, a bunch of water weight flying off . . . yay, didn't happen. On my way into work, I got a text from my cube mate - stopping for breakfast burritos on the way in and did I want one. Hells yeah I want one, but I said no. I drank my protein shake. I can't keep starting tomorrow, as I just keep getting heavier.
Thank goodness it's getting cool outside, as I feel so much better in sleeves, I like that it hides my fat arms.
Just came back from a 4 mile lunch run. I felt pretty good, tried to push a little but not too hard. I just kept thinking how much easier this will be when the pounds come off.

Day 1
Day 1 - weight 121.4, goal 110
I've made a list, 50 things to do before I am 50 . . .one item is to finish an Ironman in under 14 hours. I'm giving myself two chances, IMTX (May) and IMAZ (November). I am starting this journey being 11.4 pounds over weight, which at 4'11" is a lot of weight to carry. My clothes don't fit, and I hate being chunky. Sometimes I forget how I look, until I walk past a mirror. There has been a lot of emotional eating this past year, with extended business travel and a very hard project at work. My goal this upcoming year is to take my life back, and get back to the fitness level I am used to.
So, today is day 1 and I hope by writing down my feelings I will stay true to myself and be able to make this goal happen.
I just spent an hour on my compu trainer, very easy - only pushed a load of 50, but hey I need to start some where. I have meetings outside the office for the morning, but I a hoping to go for a run when I get home. Maybe start a running streak . . . today would be day 3 of straight running.
Running streak 3 days - total distance 13.8 miles
