Throwing out the scale and training!

What a busy weekend!We are still spending all our free time working on the house. It saves a lot of money doing all the remodeling ourselves, with the help of a few friends, but man does it take a lot longer! Right now our house looks condemend. We have no windows, they are all covered with plywood, half the siding is tore off, the railings are missing on the front porch and it goes on and on! But on the positive note, the drywall is almost all hung, the windows are ordered, furnace and air are ordered, and ordering kitchen cabinets next weekend. This means it is being put back together! I went to kickboxing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, it is one of my favorite classes. I love beating on the bag a little. And it is even better when I come home with bloody knuckles, it's like it is proof of my work that day and makes you feel a little bad ass! Saturday evening, even though I was tired I decided to head into the city to get some shopping done because of the pending snow storm on Sunday. It was nice to have a couple hours of quietness to myself, however; I found nothing I wanted. Trent needed a coat, his zipper broke on his, and snow boots. I stopped 4 places and didn't find anything! I wanted a new pair of workout pants. I never found those either. Every place I went to had their spring stuff out already and I didn't want capris, I wanted pants. So I guess for now I am stuck with the same ones I have had for a couple years, the waist rolls down and I am constantly trying to fix and adjust them. But I guess they'll work until I can get out the capri's. My favorite part about going to the city on my own is going to the drive through at Panda Express! Broccoli beef and mixed veggies for less than 200 calories!!! MMMMM yummy! Sunday I finished up the laundry. I have NO dirty clothes and ALL the clean clothes are put away!! Yes this is record setting for me! I don't think I have had all the laundry put away in well over a year! Thanks to my Mother in Law for helping me while the guys worked on the house! It wasn't a great food day, but not terrible. I did do a decient job making food choices but before bed I ate a Little Debbie Easter cake. Not a smart decision. Shouldn't eat that late at night and definatley not sugar! I had taken a nap with Trenton earlier in the day in combination with day light savings time and the sugar, I was wired! I never have troubles sleeping and I was up until almost midnight, wired!!! If there would have been a 10pm fitness class I would have gone last night!! So today is weigh in day with a friend and I came in at 209. This was down 2 pounds but really frustrated me! I could have made a little better food choices but I thought I had done better than that. As she reminded me, the number does not define you. So this week I decided I am not setting a big # goal. Between now and next Monday I will have 3 runs, 2 bootcamp classes and 2 kickboxing classes. I am going to try only having a protein shake for supper. Evenings are the hardest time for me to stay on track so I am going to make it simple. Eat the right food all day, protein shake for supper. I also decided I need to get back to goals and rewards for myself. So I will spend today writing them and post what I come up with tomorrow!! So this is my goal for the week! Train, Eat, Sleep! And last I am putting the scale away. THIS IS SCARRY FOR ME!!! If you know me at all I am a sclae stalker!! Every morning I stand on it. I am putting it away until next Monday! If I don't know how I am doing I think I will work a little harder! This is a great reminder!
