Whew, what a week! My Live at 5 story was on Wednesday night - if you haven't had a chance to see it yet, you can view it here. My blog hits exploded (I think it was something like 400 hits in 24 hours...usually that's about 2 weeks worth!). People I have never met have contacted me on my blog or on Facebook to congratulate me (how cool?!)...,there you go - my very own 15 minutes of fame! haha I was nervous at first, but it's been fun :)
Things weight-wise are somewhat stalled. Had a great week food-wise / fitness-wise, but saw a gain of 1 lb on the scale. Not sure why, but am pushing through this week. I am going to try a "no sugary treats" week (work-week only!) and see if that helps. I am finding that once I start with sugar, I can't stop these days!
Not looking forward to resisting the sugary treats over the holidays. I think I may have to take up knitting or something to keep my hands and my mind busy while I'm away. I know I just "took up" sewing...but it's hard to lug a Singer onto a plane...and they'll allow me 6" knitting needles through security I believe ;-) I have to remind myself that it's about the PEOPLE and the place I'm visiting, NOT the food...although the Brits sure do know how to make mean Thai and Indian food... Ok, maybe one of each... My plan will be the same as last year - healthy breakfast and lunch and a slightly relaxed supper on the nights we go out. I do plan on avoiding the "low fat" lemon poppy seed muffins at Starbucks UK this time though - I ate them last year thinking they were a wise choice, only to find out (recently) that they are 9 points each! hahaha, ignorance is NOT bliss!
Happy first week of December everyone! What are your plans for your health this Christmas season??
