Very chill about internship exercise...
I forgot to weigh myself this morning, but I would put me still in the 222 range. I've walked more this week by default by using public transportation. It's odd; part of me misses the intense workouts I used to do, the group classes I would go to. I had a training on Saturday morning, but I am hopeful I might be able to get up and go to spin next Saturday. We'll see how the cards fall, but that's my original plan.
This morning while making our Weekend Big Breakfast, we had some friends in town that we were taking to the cruise terminal. The topic of healthy eating and weight loss came up, as it's been doing. My friend is in the process of thinking of having children and has been considering gastric bypass in order to make her body lose the weight. Her husband, whom is becoming a closer friend of mine, was talking about his own weight loss issues and previous successes, then said he was impressed with me that I've been able to manage and maintain the weight loss even while on my crazy internship schedule. We're working on developing our own relationship, so it was reassuring that he could acknowledge the effort I had been putting into my own body.
Maybe I'll just be maintaining for the next six-ish or twelve-ish weeks. If I don't significantly gain anything back, a maintenance or a loss would be awesome, especially with the lack of exercise. I'll keep an eye on my foods and continue to pack healthy alternatives. I'll continue to drink a lot of water. And I'll do all the walking needed to get to the buses and home. When I get home, I won't eat, because eating after 2200 is always a Bad Idea. If I can get up the umph, I'll try to sit on my stability ball more...
... we'll see how much more umph I can have.
