Well I've finally had a successful week and I gotta say it feels pretty damn good. Not bathing myself in a vat of milk chocolate good, but good nonetheless. I lost a 2.2 lbs and am down to 144.6 lbs.
I was pretty much OP all week which I felt was a bit of a miracle since there were some rather big roadblocks in my way. On Thursday we had a food photoshoot in my office whereby bowls of melted cheese and chocolate served in the form of fondue, were on the menu. (My favourite thing about fondue is that it becomes socially acceptable to eat a bowl of melted cheese, when such behavior would be considered gluttonous and perhaps even disgusting in any other setting. The Swiss are a brilliant people.) I barely touched any of it.
Then it was my husband Matthew's birthday this weekend so we went out for a nice dinner on Saturday. I limited myself to one glass of wine and skipped dessert. Granted I could feel the butter coating the inside of my mouth from the plate of escargot I had, but hey, a girl's gotta live right? Then last night we finished the birthday celebrations at my in-law's where there was more food and cake to be had.
I guess what probably saved me this week was that I earned a total of 17 activity points by exercising ever single day last week. I don't think I have ever done that before. I did six days of JM30DS and on Saturday went to the gym and ran on the treadmill for an hour. My body has a dull ache all over from not getting a day of rest, but it's a good ache. It's right there under my slightly more toned ass.

I thought you were a vegetarian.
Hello Anonymous... yes, I was a vegetarian for about three years, but stopped about 8 months ago for a variety of reasons.
I still don't eat a lot of meat, but what I do eat comes from local and/or organic sources and I feel OK with that.
