TGI MONDAY!

There are a whole host of reasons for being glad today is MONDAY:
  1. The kids' school vacation is OVER. I had some fun with them, but routine is good. Everyone was tired and cranky (me included) and it felt good to wave to the school bus with both girls on it.
  2. My husband is at work. I love him. We had a good weekend together, but the house is trashed and I can't get anything done with him home.
  3. My diet is back on track.... I had a birthday and an anniversary and the kids were home and we ate out ALOT. I wasn't surprised to see 186 on the scale this morning (a gain of 5 big ones!!!); but it's just temporary... I feel a solid 7 days of good living coming my way.

I ran 5k this morning; it should have been a 10k, but I'll take it. I ate my oatmeal for breakfast and I'll need to shop today or tomorrow to restock the fruits and veggies.

I am getting excited as the June triathlon approaches -- and nervous too. I'll have to step up the training. I am planning a 27 mile bike ride this Saturday with the sisters. I need to be covering the distance. Tomorrow I will spin early and swim before I teach class, finish a LSD run on Wednesday (I'm going to shoot for 7 miles), and spin again Thursday. My attitude is positive. I hope it stays that way.

I'm going to journal my food religiously again (I kind of took the last week off) and weigh myself daily to hopefully lose what I've gained and maybe see the 170's eventually. My challenge will be MAY 9th 170s.... It's possible.
