Weigh In: Week 5

Good evening, readers! And Happy Easter!

It was a rough day on the diet train today, but luckily I weighed myself before all the temptation was set before me.

The good news: I didn't gain any weight.
The bad news: I didn't lose any weight.

What did I learn? I can maintain my weight, even through birthday celebrations, parties at work, and being sick and exercising less. And I can do that just by making good decisions. So that was good.

Now that I am recovering from my illness (still stuffy but feeling much better) I can get back to my more intense exercise routine. And as long as I can keep the diet on track, we should see some progress! Sounds easy, but when you have temptations like this around the house

 it's not exactly easy to want to eat an apple instead of a cookie. I will have to exercise all my willpower until Bill can put this away!

But for all the temptations today, I feel like I did pretty well. I treated myself to a Reese's egg and a cup of coffee with Bailey's, but otherwise I abstained from all alcohol and ate sensible portions of dinner.

Random: Has anyone out there taken a spin class? There's a Cyclebar opening in Woodbury next month and I'm interested. They are having a 10-day "grand opening" thing where you can take two free classes, which I will definitely try. I just want to know if anyone has tried this and if they have any opinions about it. Or, if you live in or around Woodbury, if you would like to try it with me!

Wedding planning was more-or-less on hold today while we celebrated Easter. But I did decide today to make an official "wedding website" (probably at theknot.com) to keep everyone updated. I'll let you know when it's up and running!

Until tomorrow, readers.

  1. I've done spin classes at LA Fitness and it's a lot of fun! If you don't like it the first time I would suggest going again with a different instructor. They pick the music and routine so you need the right fit. I suggest bringing a small towel with you. I end up sweating so much it gets hard to hold on to the handle bars.....
