Wow. That's all I can say. I've read other people's posts when they are surprised by a loss despite either cheating or feeling lazy on their workouts, etc.

I ate at a slightly higher overall average caloric intake than my norm. I exercised far less than my average due to increased back/hip pain and numbness.

Still, I guess when you have put in the work in previous weeks, building muscle to increase your metabolic rate, you can see pay off even in weeks that you don't feel like you did amazingly well.

Yesterday was my best day in the whole week, I think. I got home quickly after work and did my strength training dvd. It hurt and felt like I was starting all over from the beginning. But, I finished it, so I'm counting that as a win.

I ate dinner and found that I really didn't enjoy my tiny pizza as much as I expected. Seriously, it's like I just don't NEED bread products as much as I used to. I love that I feel so satisfied these days with just meat and vegetables.

Enjoyed some nice, calm down time, then dressed for a night out with my son. His girlfriend got the part of "The Amazing Maisey" in "Seussical the Musical" and last night was the opening. With all the pain I've been experiencing and how much trouble I have sitting through things (church, movies, you name it), I did take half a Vicodin.

The musical was amazing, Adrienne was amazing. My son had asked me earlier in the evening if we could go out for a late dinner/snacks after the musical. I planned ahead and cut up some strawberries and grabbed a handful of almonds. I was laughing to myself at the thought of whipping out my snack at Dairy Queen while everyone else ate fries and sundaes.

Well, the cast needed to stick around to do cast pictures, so we ended up scrapping the "going out" plan. That was just fine by me, but I was still proud of myself for planning ahead.

Fridays are my day to start work later and while I didn't really sleep in (got up only 20 minutes later than usual because, duh, I have dogs that know my routine and bark to be let out, lol), I still felt less rushed and happy to be relaxing.

Add to that my 1.5 lb. loss this morning and I'm feeling pretty darn good. Oh, yeah, my husband has the weekend off for a nice change-of-pace and asked me to go to the movies tomorrow night :-)

Have a great weekend everyone!
