My weekend starts tonight!

So, I haven't been eating dinner recently. Except for tuesday I basically was just having a protein shake or some candy. I know that's bad, but it keeps my calories down and it pretty much guarantees a weight loss the next day.  Today I was right in between the lines for 122.75 and 123. It makes me SO happy. I looked at my body in the mirror today and I thought, there, finally is something I recognize. It's not exactly where I want to be. But it's closer to where I should be.  I could actually sit at about 120 and be pretty okay. Most of my clothes would fit -not some of my trousers I bought in my super skinny days - but pretty much all of my work clothes.

However, I want to fit into those skinny pants! I was wearing them before I went to Jamaica and since it's coming off relatively slowly (compared to then) I am thinking that this is doable. The 6 weeks of being good while the bf is gone and making exercise part of my routine I think will help me stick with it once he gets back.

I didn't get to work out yesterday. I totally screwed up at work and had to stay until 6:30 (I usually get off at 3). It was totally my fault, and since I'm out of town tomorrow it gave me a chance for extra hours, which I need right now. But, I didn't get to exercise, another reason I didn't eat dinner.  But I got my morning workout with Jillian. I am doing each level of 30 Day Shred and Ripped in 30 in a row, so I am not doing the same level for days at a time, and so that I vary the difficulty - 30 DS is 3 levels, then start again with level 1 to 4 of Ri30. My shoulder and back are still really sore. And after this morning, I think my triceps will hurt tomorrow. The weather looks like it's warming up so hopefully back to running this evening.

I know I've said it before, but I really don't like her models in Ripped in 30. They are not what I want to look like. They make Jillian look down right feminine. Thankfully, I know that doing these routines will not make me look like that. 

I'm out of town on Friday afternoon through Sunday. I am driving with a bunch of people to a dance convention. I am hoping the hotel has a gym and a pool so I can workout on top of dancing. During the day I'm going to be walking around the city instead of taking classes. It happens to be in the same place the BF and I are moving to.  If my friends want to be touristy I will do that with them, otherwise I might just hop on the public transportation and see the neighborhoods that the BF is looking to live in before heading downtown. Just to give me a feel for what it'll be like when I get there. I'm hoping that with all of that moving around I will be able to come home to 122 on the scale. My plan is to take a bunch of PB&J sandwiches, apples, bananas and granola bars so that I only have to buy a couple of meals out which should keep me on track.
