weight on 11/1: 158
current weight: 159
yeah, leave it up to me to GAIN a pound. but i expected it - it's that time of month. i'm surprised the gain was only 1!
as far as diet, keeping to my rule has been relatively easy. there is constant temptation at work and home, but i'm proud to say i've been bacon-free for a week! i haven't touched any desserty type foods except for 2 chocolate covered strawberries today. hey! they're good for you, right? :) saturday, i tried to be good at hooters, but that just didn't work. and i regretted it almost instantly. i felt so icky and bloated and sick afterward. maybe that's just the lesson i needed to learn.
my parents also came home with some lovely pastries and breads from the filipino bakery. damn them! the good thing is that they also picked up some persimmons and pomegrenates from the store too!
tonight, i went to kickboxing. i was pleased to see that the instructor wasn't one of those bouncy, fluffy aerobicise types. she was the normal, no frills, get to business type. my favorite type. the new girl at work came with me and she was impressed that i kept up so well. little did she know i kickboxed for years before i found running. and i'm pretty intense about it. i felt very much at home and thrilled to be punching and kicking imaginary ass!
and damn, you know those plyometric jumps and squats and lunges?! we did those too. and all i thought was, this better make me a faster runner!

I had cookies for dinner tonight. This Moment of Truth Monday is going to kick my ass. Thank God I posted my weight before the cookie binge...
LMAO! I was thinking the same thing about the lone pound. Usually mine is a 5 pound gain. YIKES!
1 pound can also be the difference of weighing yourself at a different time of day or something. At differnet time of the day -- like early evening, I'm usually a pound heavier than I am first thing int he morning. Ain't no thang.
1 lbs???
I got up at 4:30am, I weighed in at 162.4 at 6:31am (after 16oz of water, at work); I had 2 more bottle of H2O & a cup of 100 cal soup & a 100 cal granola bar & at 1:37pm (same scale) I weighed 166.9!!!
WTF????
I'm hoping its the water, but this is a daily thing. Seriously. Even if I have 1/2 a pizza, I weigh 166 by End of business.
I'd love 1lb! Love it & maybe even keep just that 1 :o)
Great job at Kickboxing; I've only EVER got the fluffy girl teacher & I quit....
No worries - we'll get 'em this week for sure. I can feel it already.
you are my new role model.
you're INTENSE, woman!
Damn that scale!!
Those plyometrics WILL make you faster. And they WILL help you lose weight. Those things kick ass.
