Weekly Weigh-In

So I am up 2 pounds this week. So I am at 193. I am okay with that. I just got my period and was snacky yesterday and I have a nasty cold thing going as well. I did work out last Thursday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. I did the last chance tworkout last night while watching The Biggest Loser. It was very cool. My kids even did some of it with me. I drank 32 ounces of water while doing it. I think I might try to do it when I am watching tv at night. The only other show I try to watch every week is Grey's Anatomy and The Practice. I did not write a letter to myself for last weeks homework. I guess I am still thinking about it in my head.
I did not have the best eating choices over the weekend but I did try to. My boys had a wrestling tourney on Saturday so I had a hamburger and some nachos, but I had water and milk to drink. Then on Sunday we had our annual meeting at church so there was a potluck after church. I had some really yummy lasagna, 7 layer salad and 2 desserts. I had milk to drink. I even did an extra 10 minutes of step aerobics that morning to try and offset any extra eating for that day. Oh, well, I really think part of the gain is because I have my period. I have kept up with my exercising, if anything I have done more.
I think we are doing the Seroogy's 5K on Saturday morning. My hubbie said on Monday he wasn't sure as his knee was bothering him but now last night he said it was all better. So he is taking our forms in today to sign up. So even though it's only supposed to be 25 degrees out we are walking our first 5K. Hopefully the windchill will not be too bad. I'll let you know how it goes.
