After Tuesday, things got really busy. Well, not as busy as last week actually, but stuff conspired to keep me away from my computer. On Wednesday I arrived to find that my computer wouldn't boot up properly, so I didn't have access to it until the afternoon, then yesterday I spent all morning and part of the afternoon at home waiting for the plumber. Both of these were really bad timing because I had two grants due this week. I just finished one of them, so I'm taking a moment to update here.
Not that there's much to report. I went over my calorie goal twice this week, each time by about 100 calories--not enough to do major damage, but more than I need to do, especially with getting no exercise. I blame the bread. I got a couple of loaves of sourdough bread from Atwaters earlier this week, one for dinner at home and one for a potluck at work. Of course they won't sell you quarter loaves, which is about what I needed for these meals, so now I have this delicious bread hanging around, and I can't stay away. A slice of bread doesn't make me feel guilty like, say, a Fun Size Snickers might, but it has the same effect on my diet! My weight is staying steady--amazing how you can lose weight so quickly one week and have it grind to a halt the next. Next week's goal will be to get three days of exercise. Just three--I'm not aiming for the 10 hours a week I got at one point in my life! An hour and a half in a week will do fine to start.
I also need to get a new battery for my pedometer. I think wearing it encourages me to keep moving, even on days with no exercise. Without it, I don't stand and march in place while brushing my teeth, tyring to hit the next level before I go to bed, and I don't take the long way around campus to get back to my office.
