Turn the beat around

I realize that every week on this journey will not be filled with sunshine and roses. That said, I didn't just want to sit back after last week. I wanted to be proactive to ensure that things would go well. I did that, because I want to look good and feel excited to be at Balticon. Based on last year, lots of pictures find their way onto Blogs, and Flickr accounts, and goodness only knows what else.

So, I continued with the lunch time cereal-fest and made sure to get out there. Early in the week, it looked as if rain might derail me by Wednesday. So I walked hard Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday was also good walking weather in the end. And it looks like things might clear up for a noontime stroll today. RAWR.

Its all about motivation, kids. Plan your work... then work that motha-frakkin' plan.

A Tough Week

This is going to be a tough week for me. After dropping five pounds between Week 0 and Week 1, that's a given. I'm thinking it might be a challenge to maintain that pace.

Add into the mix that it was raining today. Scrap walking. I was hoping to at least put the time to good use and get my hair cut. But the local place I go to was full up, so I still look like the Shaggy DA, too.

On Wednesday, my company has their annual profit sharing luncheon. This means a social hour with appetizers. Then sitting and listening to a motivational speaker. And finally, more food. I will try to eat in moderation, but i also know that this is likely to be a stumbling block for me.

So we hope for good weather. I'm also trying an experiment. I am eating Special K for lunch this week, with 2% milk. They're always touting their benefits on the commercials, we'll see if any of this can help offset the other roadblocks that are looking to derail my forward momentum.
