243.4 - Early morning at the Kangaroo Hut...
I weighed myself quickly this morning before leaving for my now-early-assigned morning shift at the Kangaroo Hut. The only thing I can think of is the constant stairs every thirty minutes on the overnight shifts were giving me inadvertent exercise, as well as monitoring what I'm eating.
I still haven't been to the gym. Ugh. However, I did purchase more B-12 sublinguals, so maybe I can get back on board with taking my vitamins. I know I have a B-12 deficiency, so maybe not taking that for awhile made me more lethargic. I used to have to give myself shots to try and jump-start my body, and then was on those tablets. Thankfully, I am back up to full with the B-12, the Niacin, vitamin D, and the fish oil capsules. Maybe my brain will start working well again.
Maybe with this new schedule, I can see about working in some gym time. I have an interview tomorrow for another part-time job, which would be stellar if I can continue to cobble together monies. But the gym thing; I really need to figure out the gym thing.
But another two pounds, a full two pounds actually. I've surpassed my Lenten goal! Now, I need to figure out what the next goal will be. It's ridiculous how the mind views things; 243 seems so much less than 245, but maybe it's because it's a different bracket? Like technically, I could round down? Is that why the mind does that when we gain or lose weight?
Last year on my birthday, I weighed in at 220. The lowest I had seen on the scale was 213 around that time, which blew my mind away. The "happy" goal is 200 but the "ideal" weight would be 180. Now, I'm wondering how close the 208.6 is, if that would even be feasible in this year. I'm coming up on another internship, maybe another part-time job, graduating, and hustling to make money to support Fidget when he goes back to school. I don't want to make a lofty goal so I never hit it; I'll have to think harder on this, and also appropriately gauge my dedication to this, especially when Lent is over and I can have ALL the soda and ALL the chocolate and other things I've sworn off.
But I totally have eight stones in my weighing jars.
Maybe if I add walking back in, it'll come off quicker. I was thinking last night how I used to be so on point with exercise and eating, and it all went to hell. However, with this success, it might be enough to get me back on that treadmill again...
... and those spin classes.
