Minimize Me Monday

  • This was a light week.  Down a mere .5 pounds to 182.0.
  • I am really starting to stress about meeting my mini-goal for 169 by June 12th.  That means near perfect weight loss of 2 pounds/week for the next 6 weeks.  I don’t know if that is going to happen.
  • My mojo was missing this past month.  I never really have a problem with exercising but I’ve been allowing too many “non-compliant” foods to slip into my meals.  I rarely feel like cooking dinner and as a result have been going out for lunch a lot.  I usually stick with salads or rotisserie chicken or something from the Whole Foods hot bar but still…
  • I am hereby reclaiming my lost mojo found!  Every day is a new day and every meal is a new meal.
  • I am smoking everyone in the office Biggest Loser contest!  The response from the other participants? Let’s extend the deadline from May 10th to July!  WTH! Since it is 8 against 1, I can’t really argue here.  I did demand ask that we up the ante by putting more money in the pot.  I’m way ahead now and if I don’t screw it up 2 months isn’t going to make that much of difference.  I am claiming that prize!
  • I found a new pair of Size 12 Gap Curvy jeans in a laundry basket.  I put them on and they fit perfectly!  Yes!
  • Last weekend marked Month 4 of my Precision Nutrition program.  I really need to do a comprehensive post of my thoughts on the program.  Anyway, they have a neat photo comparison tool and I was checking out my photos from Jan against pics I took this weekend.  The difference was very visible which made me feel better about having an off month.  My body is nowhere near where I want it to be (hello to all this stomach!), but I can see things shrinking and that is worth celebrating.
  • Sister P thinks she is gonig to beat me in the upcoming Warrior Dash.  She better watch out!  I will cross that finish line before her if it is the last thing I do!  I might not be able to run fast like I used to, but CrossFit has prepared me to handle all kinds of random fitness tasks.  I don’t anticipate the obstacles being a huge challenge.  Bring it!

    You can meet your goal, but not if you stress about it. Relax and continue your program – you’re doing great.

    How do you ‘find’ a new pair of jeans in the laundry basket? LOL

    I bought a couple of pairs of Gap jeans in a smaller size when I had 30% coupons. Of course, I had filed them away and forgot about them. I was actually cleaning and found them. I am the queen of folding laundry and never putting it away!
