Let's go with a great week

So, really, can I say how much I enjoy counting calories? I've been watching my calories & eating less and it's paid off. We'll save that for the weigh in - look towards a couple paragraphs later.

I basically kicked ass on the Tuesday Tasks. I counted calories and because of which put down some food that I decided I didn't really need as well as didn't stop by 7-11 at all to pick up any snacks. Snacks were brought from home (dear 100 calorie Ritz Snack Pack - I love you!). Calorie counting will be a new habit for now.

These Tuesday's Tasks:
1) Do 20 modified pushups, 20 regular crunches and 20 twist crunches before bed. Because the gym membersip ran out I've gotten a decent amount of cardio in but haven't gotten too much weight training in.
2) Run/walk/jog Monday and Tuesday morning - I've got training all day and that sucks so I want to exercise. The track is close enough to my townhouse.
3) Not feel ashamed to post up on the blog EXACTLY what i eat the first weekend at school. Not sure if that's clear but I know what it means to me.

awesome progress, lady!

counting calories is totally working for me too. I'm down 2.5! I actually need to go eat something pretty high calorie now to get into my range for the day! I may have to pick up the 100 calorie snack pack, too. I've been struggling trying to pack lunch and snacks.

good luck with the transition back to school - you've been doing these things long enough that they've hopefully become habit for you!

Rock on, girlie, that's super! I didn't even really connect that was why you wouldn't eat pie when we came, but good on you, because sugar. I have no will power around pie (neither does Teo, which is why we're "trying" pies like every week), so I'm super-impressed.

Oooh, glad your townhouse is near a track! That makes it a little easier.
