WIP

I'm a WIP or a Work in Progress... these last two weeks have been crazy. Lots of traveling and lots of unregulated eating. This week was training week. As I had a class on Monday and Tuesday. Then Wednesday through Friday I had a state conference. Ugh!

Although I am happy that I got a lot of training done, I think it was almost too much information in a short period, I would have like to have broken it up over a longer period. I guess I'll know not to do THAT again.

And my weight shows.... I am up to 315, that my friends is a gain of 7 pounds from last week. Now, I know that part of that is water weight, but still my heart SANK when I saw that number on the scale. That makes me officially heavier than when I started Weight Watchers.

Something has got to give. I need to start journaling again, I'll be using SparkPeople, my user name is itsmecassieb please come find me and check up on me! I will either be posting my food here, or there on SparkPeople. I hope to use SparkPeople, but I know that I won't have the time to enter in all the food labels.

I finally have my days off this week and I don't have anything planned! I hope to get my gym on as well as perhaps going for a horseback ride.

I've joined!

So upon the recommendation of a few people, I've joined the SparkPeople community. Please search for my and add me as a friend (User name: itsmecassieb)

I am hoping to track my food and activity with this program, the iPhone app as well as the website seem very user friendly, I am still trying to learn to navigate around both and get my bearings.

I'm excited about this direction.

I've also signed on for a 9 week cardio program on my EA Active 2 game for the Wii, I love the structured workouts, it's almost like circuit training with the combination of cardio and resistance band exercises. I am on a schedule of 4 workout days with 3 rest days.

I've got less than 8 months to go till my big day, I vow I will be a buff bride. Maybe not the buffest bride, but buffer than I currently am right now.

I am trying to continue Al's Strong for 23 in 2011 campaign through the rest of the year. I am finding February to be hard; mainly because it's a short month i.e., not many rest days, but also that I thought of continuing on with the campaign several days into February. So I may not make it this month, but I am going to try. Every little bit helps.

This night has been long and hard. Work was busy. I'm so thankful that I was able to take a nap yesterday. Even though I think H2B wanted to do something, I just was tired. Glad I napped. However for some reason I have a craving for Popovers from the Jordan Pond House in Acadia National Park. Their popovers are amazing, so good! And it brings to mind memories of summer and Bar Harbor and vacation.
