Gina: Day 15 (Week 3)

I think this week is going to be hard.  Scott tells me it takes 21 days to make a habit (I had always heard 6 weeks, but whatever).  So at the end of the week, supposedly exercising will be a habit. 

I'm hopeful b/c I'm still forcing myself to do it most days.

The scale isn't making me feel much better.  It says I've only lost 2 lbs--how can this be?  I feel like I've been eating well and exercising a ton.  So frustrating, but I'm not giving up.

Eating:

Breakfast: 410 cals
Mozzy scramble sammy w/2 slices lean ham and 8 oz milk--no coffee--in too much of a hurry.

Lunch: 215 cals
Turkey sandwich w/mustard and some carrots.  A handful of nuts

Dinner:
leftover pasta w/ grilled chicken.  Salad maybe? Change of plans. I felt really tired, and I did NOTHING during C's nap--like prep dinner.  So I made the executive decision to make semi-homemade pizza.  Nothing fancy.  Store bought crust, but we put on the sauce and toppings.  Colin helped w/every step (except veggie chopping).  He loved it, and he did a great job. 


Exercise:

Got up this morning and ran 36 minutes.  This is the longest I've run in almost a year.  Walked about 10 minutes to cool down.  I need to get a short shoulder/arms/abs weight session in--still haven't done this--is there any hope?

Emotional/Spiritual:

Read my Bible last night and had a short prayer time.  Feeling a lot of anxiety over the fact we are expecting a contract to come in on our house today, but it doesn't seem like it's really going to happen.

Really tired--didn't go to sleep easily last night b/c of the anxiety.  Plus my cold is hanging on--ick!
