Back on track



So another week is drawing to a close (yes I know it's Tuesday, but my 'plan' operates Wednesday to Wednesday).

I don't think I'll make it to Weight Watchers tomorrow (I have a date, go me) but we can discuss how the week has gone, particularly since the problematic Saturday summary in the previous post.

First off, the sun arrived over the weekend.  "So what?" I hear you chime! Well, it's no secret many of us are 'solar powered' and I'm certainly one of them.  The arrival of sunshine each winter/spring is a momentous occasion, and a momentous dose of energy too.  

My weekend saw such an extreme quantity of motivation and constructive energy it was unreal.  I know I'm using a lot of superlative adjectives, but they're justified.  I completely gutted and reorganised my home, clearing out nearly three car loads of junk.  Old clothes, DVDs, electronics, papers, you name it.  The charity shop loves me as of now.  Rearranged a load of furniture for more useful space and suffice to say my home, which was previously "cosy bordering on cluttered" is now organised and very allowing of constructive energy.  I simply can't operate in mess and clutter, it's draining.

I got my assignment done on Sunday, that was another big weight off the shoulders too.

Picked up my bike on Sunday as well and have been enjoying the rides (5 miles a day to work and back).  Didn't make it to the gym over the weekend, but as mentioned above the time was certainly put to good use.

The eating has been going better as well.  Did some more healthy shopping on Sunday and stocked the fridge with lots of fruits and vegetables, as well as some more lean meats and the appropriate carbs.  Filling & Healthy has been in full operation since Saturdays moaning post, as has my tracking of all food and activity using the Weight Watchers site again.  Fridays chinese was the one blemish.

My goal this week is a no gain/no loss target.  I'll be incredibly happy if I just keep the weight off I lost through illness.  Not looking for miracles and another 6lb off or something silly like that.  If the scales say 18st 0lb tomorrow, I'll be happy.  Then we start losing again the week afterwards.
