This week wasn’t what I would call a banner week for weight loss, exercise, or even sleep.  This week, I didn’t DO anything.  E was out of town several times for work, and since we are just beginning the busy season again, it goofed me up.  The boys have a 2 week break between swimming lesson sessions at the Y, and that contributed.  I usually work out while they are in swimming lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

This past week, I didn’t work out. Not even once.  I know, shame on me!!  I really DO feel as if it was a major FAIL on  my part. E doesn’t HAVE to be home for me to go to the Y.  The boys don’t HAVE to have swimming lessons in order go with and have fun in the pool.  But I wasn’t FEELing like it, so I didn’t go.  Bad Momma!

I guess the good news is that I didn’t gain any weight.  The bad news is that I ate really badly and didn’t log half of my points this week.  To the point where my iWatchr app told me I missed days and would I like to log those or just skip them?  Yep, that bad.  I just skipped them.  I did log my weight a few times this past week, and while I was down a bit during the weekend, I ended up at the same weight I was at last Thursday’s weigh-in, which is the one that matters.  So I didn’t gain, but didn’t lose.

More fails. I didn’t drink water. I mean, hardly ANY water at all.  Water is one of those things that I have to remind myself that I need. If I fill a big water bottle and keep it near me, I will drink it. If I don’t, I forget that water is for drinking.  And that makes me eat.

Speaking of eating, we had a BBQ on Saturday, complete with ice cream.  And there was entirely too much ice cream in this house. And I ate ice cream every evening until it was gone.

So lest you think I’m just being a downer on myself, know this:  I am back on track today, I will be going to the Y this evening, and I have a full bottle of cold water within reach!  Hopefully next week’s post will be a better testimony.
