I stepped on the scale yesterday and I’ve gained 8 pounds!!! When did that happen? Ok, so maybe I just might now what it happened.
I got bad when I started school. I barley have enough time to get ready in the morning before I have to head out for my hour, yes I said hour, drive to work. And since I pass about 3 Starbucks on the way I’ve started stopping at them for a jumpstart to my morning. I mean come on I’m in one class for 4 hours and talking about Medical Terminology does not a fun class make. So I convinced myself I need to stop at Starbucks every morning to wake myself up, oh and have a nice little something to eat along with my drink.
Then that turned into passing some fast food place after school and deciding I was to hungry on the way home to wait the time it would take for me to fix something. Dude, do you really except me to wait the 6 minutes it takes to heat something up in the microwave. Sheesh, this is the 21st century, I want my food NOW!
Add to the fact that I stopped going to the park over the summer, it was 90 degrees at 7:00 in the morning and I was melting. And there you have an eight-pound gain.
I keep telling myself I’m going to strap those shoes back on my feet and head out to the park and loose this added weight, but has it happened yet. I’m assuming we can all guess the answer here, huh?
My size 12 jeans that I was so proud to be able to fit into are getting a little snug. FYI, when I say a little, I mean a lot!
I don’t know if it’s the fact that I like going to the park early in the morning to workout and can’t do that anymore because class starts at 8:30 in the morning or that I once again make the excuse that it’s to hot by the time I get out of class to head over to the park. And we all know that once I’m home I’m not going back out to workout. Or could it be that fact that I have no idea where my workout clothes are. I think they are at the bottom of my dirty clothes bin, I tend to skip over them when I do laundry. The excuse being that I was saving the earth by not using up all the water just to wash my workout clothes that were not being used. That one so sounded better at the time.
So, it’s sink or swim time. I must start working out and eating right.
And I will, right after I have that last cinnamon roll from Starbucks tomorrow morning.
