<\/p>\nMonday, Monday.\u00a0 Another week down, truckin’ along with everything.\u00a0 Life is grand!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No sugar update: <\/strong><\/p>\n It’s getting easier and easier.\u00a0 For some reason, the only time I recall being tempted this week was a birthday cake.\u00a0 Why on earth for some reason crappy sheet cake has been the thing that keeps calling my name this month.\u00a0 I know it’s not worth the calories.\u00a0 But for some reason, that sickeningly sweet frosting-ness just makes me WANT.\u00a0 It’s not even what I’m going to treat myself to this week when I break my month sweet-fast.\u00a0 I am THOROUGHLY looking forward to the frozen yogurt though!\u00a0 I do believe I’ll wait until Saturday, on the way home from the new gym.\u00a0 Next week, I’ll decide what else to work on.\u00a0 Current thought is avoiding fried food until Vegas.\u00a0 That’s one thing I’ve noticed that’s crept back into my life a little too much lately.<\/p>\n New Gym:<\/strong><\/p>\n This week we’re both finally a) not sick b) not on vacation c) not injured d) have the money, so it’s time to give the new gym a try (and hopefully switch over if everything is super cool).\u00a0 This means regular access to a pool.\u00a0 Yay!\u00a0 Just in time too, my first tri is in about 3 weeks.\u00a0 I should, uh, probably sign up for it.\u00a0 Need to by the 8th or it gets more expensive.\u00a0 How the HECK is it August already?\u00a0 Le sigh… Speaking of new fitness equipment – we got a pull up bar so now every time I go into the bedroom, I try to do a pull up every time I pass it.\u00a0\u00a0 I can’t even fathom doing a proper one right now, but hopefully soon!<\/p>\n 66% Olympic:<\/strong><\/p>\n I did 2 pretty epic workouts last week – the 5k run-12 mile ride-5k run and the 25 mile ride and 10k run.\u00a0 This week was sort of a test to make sure my endurance is where it should be.\u00a0 Good news – it is!\u00a0 I rocked both workouts with reckless abandon.\u00a0 The run bike run got a little rough at the end, but I made it.\u00a0 I’m sure that running 5k is actually more tiring than a half mile swim – so I feel pretty awesome about the sprint distance.\u00a0 The double length ride and run is the last two legs of the Olympic distance, and I was just so PUMPED about how easy it was.\u00a0 It was tough, but not KILLER.\u00a0 Right after, I chowed down on some major food, and then we walked about 2-3 miles downtown that night.\u00a0 My legs are a little tense, but I’m not wrecked.\u00a0 I’m glad that I’ve made such strides in the last few months with my biking (anything over 10 miles at one time was just crazy talk – now I do 25 each week), since I’ll have to give myself a crash course in lap swimming.<\/p>\n No Weigh:<\/strong><\/p>\n Sometime this week, I’m going to get on the scale.\u00a0 Mondays were never a great weigh in day so I’m probably going to do Wednesday morning.\u00a0 I’ll check in and let y’all know later this week how it goes.\u00a0 It’s been bizarre after 3.5 years of constant weighing to take 2 months off.\u00a0 I was certain about a month ago I had gained about 5000 lbs, and earlier this week, I felt like I was feeling super skinny, like maybe possibly I was even back to my goal weight.\u00a0 I’m interested to see where I’m at.\u00a0\u00a0 Hopefully I’m still interested even after I see the number, heh.<\/p>\n Well, let’s get down to it.\u00a0 Here’s the numbers for this week.<\/p>\n Monday: ate 1852, 5k run, 12 mile bike, 5k run (1200) = 652 Avg consumption per day = 1854 Right on!\u00a0 That should equate to about a 1 lb loss.\u00a0 But we all know how wonky my body is, and I haven’t weighed forever, so who knows, right?\u00a0 Here is next week’s plan.\u00a0 Another week where I have 0 plans to start out – I’m really hoping for a mellow week with maybe a little less boozin’.\u00a0 Two fairly debilitating hangovers in one week is enough.\u00a0 Fun to attain, but sort of a drag to deal with.<\/p>\n Monday: bike 12 miles, run 5k (800) So, question of the week – what’s that one food that always calls out to you, but is never worth it once you actually eat it?\u00a0 Cheers to an awesome week!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/media.fukung.net\/images\/16138\/b3a7806f85867dd16818df4b8aec727f.jpg\")
