weekly wrap up

FAIL:

1.  I didn't stay on track AT ALL this week.  With it being a holiday and birthday, plus I had the little cold. Just didn't work out in my favor this week.  I missed several workouts and have been eating lots of junk. 

2. Drove all the way to the pool to swim the big lanes this morning. My friend wasn't there so I turned around and went home. It was 6 am.  I suck but I am not a swim person and I haven't been in the water in a year and I wasn't about to swim the first time alone. I need a buddy to share the lane with me. 

WIN:

1. Despite missing workouts and eating like crap I managed to lose close to 4 lbs this week. It was 4 but I ate a lot the past 2 days so may not be 4 lbs anymore but I'm still calling it 4!!

2. Listening to my body and taking time when I need it is a big win.  Losing weight and getting faster isn't about one workout or one meal or even one week.  Its a cumulative thing- It's about having a bad week and not giving up.  You just start again and keep going.  I have 3 kids and a full time job.  Things are going to come up but it won't keep me from meeting my goals.


TOTALS:

spin class 1x
pump 1x
walk/run 3.3 miles
total weight loss 30 lbs.

Went to the podiatrist today.  Here's the story: When baby was a week or so old I stepped on glass in the kitchen.  It was pretty deep but hubby pulled it out after it happened.  We thought he got it all out but after a day or so it still hurt like there was something there.  He tried to find it but couldn't get it out.  It got a little better but still was sore but I dealt with it.  As I've gotten progressively busier (work, working out) it gotten more and more sore.  So today I went in and had the doc look at it.  (when did you step on glass? 3 months ago- DUH!) They did an xray and saw nothing then took a scalpel and tweezers and dug around a bit.  he said he could see where it went in but didn't see anything there.  At one point it felt a bit better so we are thinking it was a tiny shard that must have come out.  Its still kind of sore but feels different than it did before so I am hoping he got it.  Its hard to run with a little shard of glass in your foot. 

So 3 days of work.  Hoping its not a repeat of last weekend!  Then next week is a new week.

I'm going to hit track, run 2x, swim 1x and of course pump 2x and spin 2x.  I WILL DO IT!!!
