As of Friday I was back down 20! I ran everyday last week. Over the weekend, I'm sure I gained those 2 lbs back from the beer and crappy food consumed, but I'm back in the gym running this week. I have a 10k Saturday and I am pretty excited about it! So glad to be excited about running again!

18

I stepped on the scale on Saturday and I'm back down 18 pounds, that's exciting! I need to lose another 12  to be where I was just a few months ago. It's annoying I put the weight on but I think I'm getting back in the better habits and routines. It's helped to get up at 5 in the morning and get my workout out of the way. I have been eating a ton of chicken and fish, which isn't new because that's the only type of meat I eat. But when I'm hungry instead of grabbing a meal bar or shake I've been trying to munch on chicken. I read (which I knew this food was bad) that this one chick started a no sugar diet and achieved the body she has today. Her problem areas where the same problem areas I struggle with, so I thought I'd try it. I can't say I've achieved it yet but I'm doing better than I was doing a couple if weeks ago.  Hoping to read more up on it and figure out a way I can get my eating more under control. When I didn't eat sugar for a month and half before my Bday I could really see the results. Hopefully I can get back in that mindset again, it would be cool to see if I could do it for the rest of my life, but that's never gonna happen, I love cake too much! :)
