MFP: 1.23.13 - WEIGH-IN WEDNESDAY

Hey All! It's that time again (a day late)...Weigh-In Wednesday! 

I took a picture of my scale yesterday morning and was DISAPPOINTED to say the least. While I only just started up boot-camp again, and running regularly this week, I feel that I should NOT be GAINING weight but rather LOSING instead! 




Perhaps my hopes are set a bit too high. :-(

So true!!


I have been battling a slight cold this week and have not felt 100%. That has not stopped me from working out, but it has slowed me down a bit, I think anyway.


Because I GAINED a pound, I wanted to push extra hard to burn some calories on my pre-boot-camp run and at boot-camp itself.


I burned 812 calories between the two of them and I ran an extra 0.25 of a mile to push myself towards my 10K new years resolution goal for this year!

The BF said that I should not be discouraged by the scale because he is seeing a difference...that was sweet of him :-) Those sweet words are what keep me motivated to get this BIG BOOTY in shape!

I found this perfect quote on Pinterest...I need to read it to myself daily!



After boot-camp I came home and made a spinach, raspberry, strawberry, blueberry, low-fat plain greek yogurt, Perfect Fit Protein powder, chia seed, Savanna Bee Co. honey, almond milk SMOOTHIE! It was delish!

Protein Smoothie

In other news, I found this amazeballs app, from another blogger's recommendation, that helps with keeping track of food intake by scanning the barcodes. It's ingenious! You can keep track of your water intake, exercise, and food/calories intake.

LOVE LOVE!

Fooducate App is FABS!

Go check it out yourself...it's FREE so there are no excuses people!


I am preparing for a Chocolate Lovers 5K called The Choco Loco 5K on Saturday...cannot wait! Who doesn't love running to eat chocolate...me...duh!! It goes along with my motto...'I WORKOUT so I can EAT.'

Hope everyone had a great Wednesday... mine was uneventful but we are one day closer to Friday!

Chao.
