Bad bad week

Yeah, I blew off WW in my 2nd week.
I had such high hopes for the week on Sunday - I food prepped for hours.
But then my client was in on Monday and Tuesday and Monday's lunch with them was buying from the cafeteria. Why did I buy a coke???!!!

The two days were just meeting heavy and needing to be "on" all day, but the good news for those days is I got in a Yoga session and weight lifting. And the beginning of the week felt like fall, which is abnormal for the Northeast in early September.

  

And then the week just went down hill from there. My son had 8 teeth extracted on Thursday which he was a trooper about but due to trying to balance that and work, I was eating way too many bad carbs (ice cream, frozen chocolate chip pancakes, white pasta). And then a stressful annual visit at the vet for my 14 year old cats had me hitting the carbs again.

Before I went to bed I turned off my alarm for WW. I needed the sleep. I was 229.0 on Saturday morning and I resolved to eat better. Plus I wanted to eat clean for my run on Sunday. I also spent a good amount of time on the couch watching snippets of Downton Abbey before the movie comes out.

I headed back to the rail trail on Sunday for 6.5 miles. It was about 60 degrees and 90% humidity when I started - not horrible, not great. I ran the full way without stopping at all - My time was 1 minute faster than the 2 previous weeks.

 

After my run I did a bunch more food prep (though not as crazy as last week, much of which didn't get eaten in favor of crappy food) - I prepped 2 days of yogurt parfaits, carrot sticks, hard boiled eggs, cut of veggies to snack on, healthy pasta and chicken sausage, and orzo for the kids. I then also made a mexican casserole for dinner. Usually we do a Sunday night dinner but my daughter has volleyball from 4:30-6:30 for the next couple of months, and is 30 minutes away, so kind of screws up our Sunday evenings.

Despite my run I ate fairly well yesterday. I was 228.4 this morning. Hoping to be back down to 226.8 by Saturday.

A client is in on Tuesday but we may or may not have dinner brought in. And we have a house guest from Wednesday - Monday but I am not going to let that derail my plans - We are planning on lobster for a late lunch on Saturday but other than that I am hoping it will be business as usual in the food department.
