Maintain

So, I WIed again today. I expected to be up, but I stayed the same. It's a big deal right now that I have even managed to WI 2 weeks in a row. This is HUGE, as I had been avoiding the scale to avoid negative outcomes...I'm improving.

I noticed this week that my major problem is getting home from work. I'm a teacher and arrive home from school between 3:30-4:30, depending on how much work I have to do, or how many meetings I have (my students are dismissed at 2:30). I'm "ravenous" when I get home, and there's LOTS of crap in my house, at all times. It's hard to work through.

Basically, I need to plan better. I think I need to use less points during the day, so that I have more points at night. Also, I think I need to make sure I get in my workout (or trip to the gym) within a half hour of getting home, with no snack in between. This seems to be where I do the MOST damage. I eat ONE snack, where I count the points and am controlled. Then all HELL breaks loose and I eat all of the chips and high-sodium-chemically JUNK my dad and brother keep in the house. Gross. Then I feel gross. Then I need to wait longer to go the the gym, and I have NO points left for dinner.

My foci for this week are the following things:
-continue with running program (weeks 5-6 of C25K, I've been working through it at my own pace)
-begin some weight training
-no eating after 9
-plan, plan, plan

I just really need to get my shit together!
