I have been an utter slug this week. I only ran once, skipping my long run (don't tell A). I alternately ate poorly then ate very well. I drank more nights than I should have. I stayed home from work and did nothing for two days straight.
And after all that blobness, you know what happened? I lost 3 pounds.
Intellectually I know that any weight loss from this week has more to do with what happened last week or two weeks ago. But emotionally what I learned this week is that being a blob will help you lose weight.
Why did I get off course this week? Well, there are two reasons. First, A is moving in on Sunday so my days of opening a bottle of wine and reading magazines are over for a month or so (this is a positive thing) as is skipping runs. Second, I'm happy.
I know that doesn't make much sense. But hear me out. When I am unhappy, I go out every night, fill my life with people, do anything to avoid spending time alone with myself. This week that is all I have wanted - to spend time with myself at home. Doing nothing but enjoying my own company.
That being said, my plan is to run both tomorrow and Sunday morning and get back to my schedule for next week.
Take care, dear readers, I'm on my last couple days of slug-dom.
