...a gain of 3 lbs.
I've actually been feeling a bit peaked this whole week. Hub and I were supposed to go out for dinner Tuesday night for my b-day, but when I got home, I was so exhausted that we decided not to. So he cooked me a pasta dinner instead. Then I woke up Wednesday with a head cold, so I stayed in bed all day. I took a lot of Zicam and Coldeez and felt a bit better yesterday. But I didn't work out all week except for a short time at Curves on Monday.
Even though I gained 3 lbs, I'm pretty proud of myself. When I weighed myself, I didn't even flinch. In the bad old days, I would have beat myself up, panicked, maybe even cried. I probably would have said, what the hell, and gone and eaten something fattening. Instead, this time I just got back on track. My food has been really good today, and since I'm feeling better physically, I spent 50 minutes on the treadmill this morning.
Poor hub, though, he's been really sick for the past 2 days. I actually think he might have the H1N1. He had a fever of 103 last night, but at least he's better today. I just hope I don't catch whatever it is! I've been taking care of him, making him soup, and bringing him juice. But every time I get anywhere near him, I immediately go and wash my hands…
Right now I'm watching the Olympic women's curling match for the Gold Medal, between Canada and Sweden. I've never watched curling before, but I've gotten into it this year. I'm really rooting for our Canadian friends. GO CANADA!
I hope everyone is having a great Friday and looking forward to the weekend.
Dang, Canada just lost. But what an exciting game! Congrats to Sweden.
Don't worry over the three pounds (sounds like you didn't!) - your body is fighting being sick. Hope both you and hubby are back in ship-shape soon.
ReplyDeleteCurling is great to watch, isn't it, and even better when you don't know the rules! I don't know what is going on but it doesn't matter at all.
ReplyDeleteMy weight fluctuates all over the place and I am learning not to stress about it. After all we're taking the long view. I hope you both feel better soon.
Way to keep your head staright with the weigh in. You're doing great.
ReplyDeleteFeel better, and hope your hubs survive as well.
